The sound wave will have traveled 2565 m farther in water than in air.

Answer:

Explanation:

It is known that distance covered by any object is directly proportional to the velocity of the object and the time taken to cover that distance.

Distance = Velocity × Time.

So if time is kept constant, then the distance covered by a wave can vary depending on the velocity of the wave.

As we can see in the present case, the velocity of sound wave in air is 343 m/s. So in 2.25 s, the sound wave will be able to cover the distance as shown below.

Distance = 343 × 2.25 =771.75 m

And for the sound wave travelling in fresh water, the velocity is given as 1483 m/s. So in a time interval of 2.25 s, the distance can be determined as the product of velocity and time.

Distance = 1483×2.25=3337 m.

Since, the velocity of sound wave travelling in fresh water is greater than the sound wave travelling in air, the distance traveled by sound wave in fresh water will be greater.

Difference in distance covered in water and air = 3337-772 m = 2565 m

So the sound wave will have traveled 2565 m farther in water than in air.

One way to search for planets around other stars is the doppler technique. another way uses transits of planets around other sta

katovenus [111]

The transit method requires watching the light output of a star over long periods of time. A transit occurs when the planet crosses in front of its star from earths point of view. Since there is a small object (the planet) now blocking some of the star, it appears to dim a little bit for a while until the planet passes. If we are in a position where that occurs regularly (most paths of planets do not happen to be on the line of sight between earth and their star) we can deduce the period of orbit. From the amount of dimming and the period you can estimate the mass

1. All the relevant resistors are in series, so the total (or equivalent) resistance is the sum of the resistances of the resistors: 20 Ω + 80 Ω + 50 Ω = 150 Ω [choice A].

2. The ammeter will read the current flowing through this circuit. We can find the ammeter reading using Ohm's law in terms of the electromotive force provided by the battery: I = ℰ/R = (30 V)(150 Ω) = 0.20 A [choice C].

3. The voltmeter will measure the potential drop across the 50 Ω resistor, i.e., the voltage at that resistor. We know from question 2 that the current flowing through the resistor is 0.20 A. So, from Ohm's law, V = IR = (0.20 A)(50 Ω) = 10. V, which will be the voltmeter reading [choice F].

4. Trick question? If the circuit becomes open, then no current will flow. Moreover, even if the voltmeter were kept as element of the circuit, voltmeters generally have a very high resistance (an ideal voltmeter has infinite resistance), so the current moving through the circuit will be negligible if not nil. In any case, the ammeter reading would be 0 A [choice B].

The speed of the ball with respect to Dina is 0.800c.

A frame of reference is a set of reference points—geometric points whose positions are known mathematically and physically—that define the origin, orientation, and scale of an abstract coordinate system.

If a body does not continuously adjust its position in relation to its environment throughout the course of time, it is said to be at rest.

In frame S', Dina and Owen are at rest.

The speed of the ball with respect to Owen, u =0.800c

The speed of the fram S' with respect to frame S, v = 0.600c

Distance between Dina and Owen, L(p) = 1.8 × 10¹² m

Speed of light, c = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

Therefore, the speed of the ball according to Dina is 0.800c. As Dina and Owen are in the same frame.
