A dolphin in seawater at a temperature of 25°C emits a sound wave directed toward the ocean floor 154 m below. How much time pas

ses before it hears an echo? (The speed of sound in ocean water is 1533 m/s.)

Answer:

0.2s

Explanation:

SO for the dolphin to hear its echo, the sound wave must travel a distance twice as much as the displacement between the dolphin and the ocean floor. So d = 154 * 2 = 308 m

Since the speed of sound in ocean floor is v = 1533m/s we can find out the time by dividing the distance d by the speed of sound

t = d / v = 308 / 1533 = 0.2s

The brakes on your automobile are capable of creating a deceleration of 5.0 m/s2. If you are going 135 km/h and suddenly see a s
poizon [28]

Answer:

3.33 seconds

Explanation:

We can use the velocity formula [ v = u + at ] to solve.

Find the value "u".

135km/h -> 135km*1000m/3600s -> 37.5m/s

Find the value "v".

75km/h -> 75km*1000m/3600s -> 20.83m/s

Keep in mind we are dealing with "deceleration" so when we input 5.0m/s into the formula, it will be a negative value.

Now, find "t" which is the value we aren't given with the values we're given in the question.

20.83 = 37.5 - 5t

-16.67 = -5t

3.33 = t

Best of luck!

Let w(x)=3x-7.If w(x)=14, find x
dlinn [17]

Answer:

7

Explanation:

We are given:

    w(x) = 3x   -   7

     w(x)  = 14

The problem here entails us to solve for x;

To solve for x; equate the two expressions:

         

          3x  - 7  = 14

           3x  = 14 + 7

           3x  = 21  

             x = 7

So the value of x  = 7

A car starts to move from rest and covers a distance of 360m in one minute. Calculate the acceleration of the car.
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
<h2>The acceleration of car is 0.2 ms⁻²</h2>

Explanation:

When the car moves , the distance covered is calculated by the relation

S = u t + \frac{1}{2} a t²

In this question u = 0 , because car was at rest initially

Thus S =  \frac{1}{2} a t²

here S is displacement and a is the acceleration of car

Therefore  360 =  \frac{1}{2} a ( 60 )²

Because time taken is one minute or 60 seconds

Therefore a = \frac{360x2}{3600}

or a = 0.2 m s⁻²

With only a floor plan to reference, the designer would know what about a window.?
Studentka2010 [4]
They would only know the width of the window. A floor plan is like a top down view of a building. Imagine that you cut your house in half horizontally, and then looked down at it. All you would see would be the width of the windows, not the height or anything else.
