Answer:

2.62seconds

Explanation:

Echo occurs when sound reflects and causing a delay before getting to the listener.

Let x be the distance from between the source and the reflector

t be the time taken for the echo to occur

v be the velocity of sound in air.

Using the relationship 2x = vt

t = 2x/v

Given x = 450metres

v = 343m/s

t = 2(450)/343

t = 900/343

t = 2.62seconds

It will take 2.62 seconds for him to hear his own voice echo off of the wall.

damaskus [11]

Explanation:

Given

Range of ball =7.88 m

Initial speed=13.1 m/s

and we know

Range of Projectile is

R=\frac{u^2sin2\theta }{g}

13.1=\frac{13.1^2\times sin2\theta }{9.8}

7.88\times 9.8=13.1^2\times sin2\theta

sin2\theta =0.4499

2\theta =26.74^{\circ}

\theta =13.37 ^{\circ}

(b)other angle would be complementary of \theta

=90-\theta =76.63 ^{\circ}

Why do planets not travel in a straight path?
Elis [28]

Answer:

Because the gravitational attraction of the Sun hold them in motion around it

Explanation:

For an object travelling in a straight path at constant velocity, the net force acting on the object must be zero.

The planets in the Solar System, however, do not experience a zero net force: in fact, the Sun exerts a gravitational attraction on them, whose magnitude is given by

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the Sun

m is the mass of the planet

r is the average distance between the Sun and the planet

Due to the presence of this force, the Sun makes the planets 'deviating' from their straight path, forcing them to following an elliptical path around the Sun.

Select all that apply. What factors can limit growth?
Rudiy27
A, b and d

Competition for fix resources of course increases the energy expenditure needed to gather those resources and leaves less for a given population. A lower amount of sunlight or water also contributes to decreased energy which lowers growth. Finally, small borders limit growth in that population density can only go so high before the death rate increases beyond the birth rate.
