Given Information:  

Elapsed time = t = 6 seconds

Required Information:

Distance = d = ?

Answer:

Distance = d = 2.058 km

Explanation:

We know that the speed of sound in the air is given by

v = 343 m/s

The relation between distance, speed and time is given by

distance = speed*time

substituting the given values yields,

distance = 343*6

distance = 2058 m

There are 1000 meters in 1 km so

d = 2058/1000

d = 2.058 km

Therefore, the storm is about 2.058 km away when elapse time between the lightning and the thunderclap is 6 seconds.

A bird flies at a speed of 2.3 m/s if it has 14 j of kinetic energy what is the mass
Sidana [21]
Kinetic Energy =  1/2 * mv²

Kinetic Energy = 14 J,  v = 2.3 m/s ,  m = ?

14  =      1/2 * m* 2.3²

14 = 0.5*m*2.3*2.3

m =  14 / (0.5*2.3*2.3)

m = 5.29 kg.

Mass = 5.29 kg.

A tennis ball is thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of +6.2 m/s. What will the ball’s velocity be when it returns
anastassius [24]

Answer:

v_{f}=-6.2 m/s

Explanation:

The ball will rise decreasing its speed until it reaches the highest point where its speed will be zero. From this point the tennis ball will begin to fall again, in the free fall the tennis ball will gain speed but now in the opposite direction. When it returns to the same point where it was launched, its speed will be the same as the one that was launched but with the opposite sign.

v_{f}=-6.2 m/s

We can check this using the equation:

v_{f}^2=v_{i}^2+2gh

where v_{i}=+6.2 m/s

ang h is the height, but because the ball returns to the same point where it started, h =0

then

v_{f}^2=v_{i}^2

v_{f}=v_{i}

the initial and final velocity will be the same in number, but we know that the ball is going in the opposite direction, so the final velocity must have the opposite sign from the initial velocity

so if v_{i}=+6.2 m/s,

v_{f}=-6.2 m/s
