Answer: 99.1 seconds

Explanation: You know that the total distance is 34km, and the speed of the sound is 343m/s.

Now, the total time that takes to something with a given velocity, to reach a distance D, is:

T = D/v

where D = 34km and v = 343m/s

Now, here we have different units, so we must convert the kilomeres into meters, this can be done as: 1km = 1000m then, 34km = 1000*34m = 34000m

Then the total time is:

T = 34000m/343m/s = 99.1 seconds

Answer:

99 s

Explanation:

distance = rate × time

34000 m = (343 m/s) t

t = 99 s

Force F = − + ( 8.00 N i 6.00 N j ) ( ) acts on a particle with position vector r = + (3.00 m i 4.00 m j ) ( ) .
jek_recluse [69]

Explanation:

Given that,

Force, F=((-8i)+6j)\ N

Position of the particle, r=(3i+4j)\ m

(a) The toque on a particle about the origin is given by :

\tau=F\times r

\tau=((-8i)+6j) \times (3i+4j)

Taking the cross product of above two vectors, we get the value of torque as :

\tau=(0+0-50k)\ N-m

(b) Let \theta is the angle between r and F. The angle between two vectors is given by :

cos\theta=\dfrac{r.F}{|r|.|F|}

cos\theta=\dfrac{(3i+4j).((-8i)+6j)}{(\sqrt{3^2+4^2} ).(\sqrt{8^2+6^2}) }

cos\theta=\dfrac{0}{50}

\theta=90^{\circ}

What could u test to determine the stage of a stars cycle
nasty-shy [4]
Different stages of the cycle gives off different wavelengths of light because more types elements are being made as you go farther down the cycle. So looking at the wavelengths that the light gives off can determine what stage a star is currently in

A laser beam strikes a plane's surface with an angle of52.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Angle between incident ray and reflected ray will be 104°

Explanation:

We have given angle of incidence = 52 °

From law of reflection angle of incidence will be equal to angle of reflection

So angle of reflection will be also 52°

We have to find the angle between incident ray and reflected ray

As the incidence angle and reflected angle both is from normal of the surface and opposite to each other

So angle between incident ray and reflected ray will be 52°+52° = 104°
