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.

11) Arthur and Betty start walking toward each other when they are 100 m apart. Arthur has a speed of 3.0 m/s and Betty has a sp
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

100 m

Explanation:

Arthur and Betty should be walking the same amount of time if they start walking at the same time and stop when they meet = t

Speed of Arthur = 3 m/s

Speed of Betty = 2 m/s

Distance = Speed × time

Distance covered by Arthur = 3t

Distance covered by Betty = 2t

The distance covered by both of them will be 100 m

3t+2t=100\\\Rightarrow 5t=100\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{100}{5}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s

The speed of dog is 5 m/s

Spot is running back and forth at 5 m/s for 20 seconds

In 20 seconds the distance covered by the dog is

\mathbf{5\times 20}=\mathbf{100\ m}

The horizontal bar rises at a constant rate of three hundred mm/s causing peg P to ride in the quarter circular slot. When coord
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Horizontal bar rises with 300 mm/s

Let us take the horizontal component of P be

P_x=rcos\theta

P_y=rsin\theta

where \thetais angle made by horizontal bar with x axis

Velocity at y=150 mm

150=300sin\theta

thus \theta =30^{\circ}

position ofP_x=rcos\theta =300\cdot cos30=300\times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

P_x=259.80 mm

P=259.80\hat{i}+150\hat{j}

Velocity at this instant

u_x=-rsin\theta =300\times sin30=-150 mm/s

u_y=rcos\theta =300\times cos30=259.80 mm/s
