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.

How much current is in a circult that includes a 9.0-volt battery and a bulb with a resistance of 4.0 ohms?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Current, I = 2.3 A

Explanation:

We have,

Voltage of the battery in a circuit is 9 volts

Resistance of the circuit is 4 ohms

It is required to find the current in a circuit. When the voltage and the resistance of the circuit is given then we can find the current in it is given by Ohm's law as :

V=IR

I is electric current

I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I=\dfrac{9}{4}\\\\I=2.25\ A

or

I = 2.3 A

So, the current in the circuit is 2.3 A.

What might cause convection currents in a hot spring?
Aleks [24]

Answer and explanation;

-The cause of convention currents in a hot spring is rainwater and melted snow is cool and denser and sinks to the bottom of the hot spring where it is heated by a shallow magma chamber. The heated water expands and is less dense and rises to the top.

Explanation;

-Convention Current is the movement of fluid caused by the differences in temperature. Transference of heat from one part of a fluid to another.

-Lighter (less dense), warm material rises while heavier (more dense) cool material sinks. It is this movement that creates circulation patterns known as convection currents in the atmosphere, in water, and in the mantle of Earth. In the atmosphere, as air warms it rises, allowing cooler air to flow in underneath.
