Answer:
1.17 m
Explanation:
From the question,
s₁ = vt₁/2................ Equation 1
Where s₁ = distance of the reflecting object for the first echo, v = speed of the sound in air, t₁ = time to dectect the first echo.
Given: v = 343 m/s, t = 0.0115 s
Substitute into equation 1
s₁ = (343×0.0115)/2
s₁ = 1.97 m.
Similarly,
s₂ = vt₂/2.................. Equation 2
Where s₂ = distance of the reflecting object for the second echo, t₂ = Time taken to detect the second echo
Given: v = 343 m/s, t₂ = 0.0183 s
Substitute into equation 2
s₂ = (343×0.0183)/2
s₂ = 3.14 m
The distance moved by the reflecting object from s₁ to s₂ = s₂-s₁
s₂-s₁ = (3.14-1.97) m = 1.17 m
Answer:
B) the average distance from the Earth to the Sun
Explanation:
Answer:
1.25 m
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Force ratio = 2.5
Distance of load from the fulcrum = 0.5 m
Distance of effort =.?
The distance of the effort from the fulcrum can be obtained as illustrated below:
Force ratio = Distance of effort / Distance of load
2.5 = Distance of effort / 0.5
Cross multiply
Distance of effort = 2.5 × 0.5
Distance of effort = 1.25 m
Therefore, the distance of the effort from the fulcrum is 1.25 m
