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.

Find the mass of a body if the acceleration the body used to move is given as 5 m/s-2 and the force of the body is 30N take g=10
Aleonysh [2.5K]

The mass of a body if the acceleration the body used to move is given as 5 m/s-2 will be 3 kg.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pulls applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body.

Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. Its unit is Newton.

Given data;

Force,F = 30 N

Mass,m =  kg

Acceleration,a = 5 m/s²

The force is found as;

F=ma

30 N =m kg × 5 m/s²

m=3 kg

Hence the mass of a body will be 3 kg.

To learn more about the force refer to the link;

The outer planets are similar to the planet Earth; they just happen to be farther away from the Sun.
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The inner planets are called terrestrial planets due to the surfaces are solid (similar to Earth)-made up of heavy metals, either have no moons or few moons.

The outer planets are called Jovian planets or gas giants because they are encased in gas.  They all have rings with plenty of moons.
