Answer: The given statement is false.

Explanation:

Lightening is defined as steady expansion of air within and surrounding path due to the sudden increase in pressure and temperature that leads to emission of lightning.

Basically, lightning is a state of plasma in which the molecules are very rapidly striking with each other as it also contains positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons.

Lightning always leads to the production of thunder.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement not every lightning strike produces thunder, is false.

How to change V=72km/hr to m/s

lapo4ka [179]

Multiply by (1000 meters / 1 km).
Then multiply by (1 hour / 3600 seconds).

Both of those fractions are equal to ' 1 ', because the top
and bottom numbers are equal, so the multiplications
won't change the VALUE of the 72 km/hr. They'll only
change the units.

(72 km/hour) · (1000 meters / 1 km) · (1 hour / 3600 seconds)

= (72 · 1000 / 3600) (km·meter·hour / hour·km·second)

= 20 meter/second

A charge of 4.5 × 10-5 C is placed in an electric field with a strength of 2.0 × 104 . If the charge is 0.030 m from the source

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

The electrical potential energy is 0.027 Joules.

Explanation:

The values from the question are

charge (q) = $4.5 \times 10^{-5} C$

Electric Field strength (E) = $2.0 \times 10^{4} N/C$

Distance from source (d) = 0.030 m

Now the formula for the electrical potential energy (U) is given by

$U = q \times E \times d$

So now insert the values to find the answer

$U = 4.5 \times 10^{-5} C \times 2.0 \times 10^{4} N/C \times 0.030 m$

On further solving

$U = 0.027 J$

Different ____ of light through two separate mediums causes the bending of waves fronts associated with light rays.

Fittoniya [83]

Different speeds of light through two separate media ... and the difference in wavelength caused by the difference ... causes the bending of waves fronts associated with light rays.

AFTER the bend, since the light rays then travel in a different direction, we may also say that the 'velocity' has changed.

M=3000km v=25m/s what’s the momentum

valina [46]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Momentum of the given body will be : 75000 Kg m/s

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

According to Newton's first law of motion, all bodies continue to be in the state of rest or motion unless an external force is applied on the body. We can use this in the case of momentum also

The formula of momentum is given by :

$:\implies \sf\quad \sf \: P = mv$

Here, we are given the mass of the body ( m ) as 3000kg and the velocity of the body ( v ) as 25 m/s. On putting the values in the formula:

$\begin{aligned}&:\implies \sf\quad \sf \: P = mv \\& :\implies \sf\quad \sf \: P = 3000 \times 25 \\ & :\implies \sf\quad \sf \: \boxed{ \sf \: P = 75000kgm {s}^{ - 1} } \end{aligned}$

Momentum is associated with the mass of the moving body and can be defined as the quantity of motion measured as a product of mass and velocity.
