How much time will elapse between seeing and hearing an event?

Physics

Depends on how far away the event is and what the temperature is as this affects the speed of sound.

For example, let's say you're 600 meters away and the temperature has no affect.

The speed of sound would be roughly 340 m/s so the time it would take to hear the sound would be 600/340 = 1.76 seconds

The speed of light (c) is 3.0 X 10^8 m/s so the time it would take to see the event would be 600/3 X 10^8 = 2 X 10^-7

Subtract: 1.76 - (2 X 10^-7) = approx. 1.76

When connecting a step down transformer what does the h1 symbol denote?
densk [106]

Answer: Primary coil

A Step-down transformer is an electrical device which is used to decrease the voltage using magnetic induction. The windings of the primary coil are more than the windings of the secondary coils. h1, h2 notations are used to refer to primary coils. On the other hand, x1, x2 notations are used to refer to the secondary coils of the transformer. In case of step-up transformer, the windings of primary coil are less than the secondary in order to increase the voltage.
