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.

If a closed series circuit has a voltage of 12 V and R1 = 4 Ω and R2 = 2 Ω, what is the current running through R1 and R2?
Phantasy [73]
Total resistance=R1+ R2= 6Ω
Voltage=12v
Current =\frac{voltage}{resistance}
Current= 2A
In a series circuit, equal current passes through every resistance.

Answer:

.1 A1 = a1      A1 is amount at .1 %

.01 A2 = a2    A2 is the amount at .01%

a1 + a2 = 454     total of a1 and a2

A = 454 / .03  =  15133.33    tot amount needed

454 = .1 A1 + .01 A2    

A2 = 15133.33 - A1    

454 = .1 A1 + .01 (15133.33 - A1)

454 = .09 A1 + 151.33

A1 = 302.67 / .09 = 3363

A2 = 15133.3 - 3363 = 11770.3

Check:

.1 * A1 = 336.3

.01 * A2 = 117.7

total = 336.3 + 117.7 = 454
