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.

A ball is thrown down vertically with an initial speed of 20 m/s from a height of 60 m. Find (a) its speed just before it strike
vivado [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ball is thrown downward:

initial velocity, u = - 20 m/s (downward)

height, h = - 60 m

Acceleration due to gravity, g = - 9.8 m/s^2 (downward)

(a) Let the speed of the ball as it hits the ground is v.

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

v^{2}=(-20)^{2}+2\times 9.8 \times 60

v = 39.69 m/s

(b) Let t be the time taken

Use First equation of motion

v = u + a t

- 39.69 = - 20 - 9.8 t

t = 2 second

Now the ball is thrown upwards:

initial velocity, u = 20 m/s (upward)

height, h = - 60 m

Acceleration due to gravity, g = - 9.8 m/s^2 (downward)

(c) Let the speed of the ball as it hits the ground is v.

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

v^{2}=(-20)^{2}+2\times 9.8 \times 60

v = 39.69 m/s

(d) Let t be the time taken

Use First equation of motion

v = u + a t

- 39.69 = + 20 - 9.8 t

t = 6.09 second
