On a cold day (0C) you observe a person far away from you hit a piece of metal with a hammer. Then 0.75 seconds later you hear

the sound of the hammer hitting the metal. How far are you from the other person?

Answer:

248.48 meters

Explanation:

When there is low temperature than the normal room temperature, the speed of sound in air decreases because at lower temperatures the movement of air molecules through which the sound travels gets decreases.

Speed of sound at 0⁰ is found to be approximately 331.3 m/s.

The question says that sound was heard by the observer 0.75 seconds later after hammer hit the metal.

As we know, Distance traveled = Speed × Time taken

So, distance traveled by sound in 0.75 seconds = 331.3 × 0.75 = 248.48 m

So, the observer was standing 248.48 meters away from the other person hitting the hammer.

Glycerin is poured into an open U-shaped tube until the height in both sides is 20 cm. Ethyl alcohol is then poured into one arm
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Difference in height = 7.5 cm

Explanation:

We are given;.

Height of ethyl alcohol;h2 = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Density of glycerin: ρ1 = 1260 kg/m³

Density of ethyl alcohol; ρ2 = 790 kg/m³

To get the difference in height, the pressure at the top of the open end must be equal to the pressure at the point where the liquids do not mix since both points will be at different levels after the pouring.

Thus;

P1 = P2

Formula for pressure is; P = ρgh

Thus;

ρ1 × g × h1 = ρ2 × g × h2

g will cancel out to give;

ρ1 × h1 = ρ2× h2

Making h1 the subject, we have;

h1 = (ρ2× h2)/ρ1

h1 = (790 × 0.2)/1260

h1 = 0.125 m

Difference in height will be;

Δh = h2 - h1

Δh = 0.2 - 0.125

Δh = 0.075 m = 7.5 cm

An MRI scanner is based on a solenoid magnet that produces a large magnetic field. The magnetic field doesn't stop at the soleno
GaryK [48]

Answer:

The maximum change in  flux is \Delta \o = 0.1404 \ Wb

The average  induced emf     \epsilon =0.11232 V

Explanation:

   From the question we are told that

             The speed of the technician is v = 0.80 m/s

              The distance from the scanner is d = 1.0m

              The  initial magnetic field is  B_i = 0T

               The final magnetic field is B_f = 6.0T

                 The diameter of the loop is  D = 19cm = \frac{19}{100} = 0.19 m

The area of the loop is mathematically represented as

        A  =  \pi [\frac{D}{2} ]^2

             = 3.142 \frac{0.19}{2}

             = 0.02834 m^2

At maximum the change in magnetic field is mathematically represented as

            \Delta \o = (B_f - B_i)A

  =>      \Delta  \o = (6 -0)(0.02834)

                  \Delta \o = 0.1404 \ Wb

The  average induced emf is mathematically represented as

           \epsilon =  \Delta \o v

              = 0.1404 * 0.80

             \epsilon =0.11232 V

Tasting and smelling both involve the ability to sense chemicals. true or false
lara31 [8.8K]
TRUE.
Taste and smell senses are separate senses with their own receptor organs yet they are intimately entwined. Tastants, chemicals in foods are detected by taste buds which consist of special sensory cells.. When stimulated, these cells send signals to specific areas of the brain which then makes us conscious of the perception of taste. Also specialized cells in the nose pick up odorants, airborne odor molecules. Odorants stimulate receptor proteins found on hairlike cilia at the tips of the sensory cells, a process that initiates a neural response.

A 15 N force and a 45 N force act on in object in opposite directions. What is the net force on the object?
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

30N in the direction the 45N acts.

Explanation:

Fnet = F1 + F2 (the vector sum of the forces)

Assigning a positive direction to the 45N force and a negative direction to the 15N force gives:

Fnet = 45 - 15

Fnet = 30N

Since the answer is positive, it is in the direction the 45N force acts.
