Answer:
The sound travelled 516 meters before bouncing off a cliff.
Explanation:
The sound is an example of mechanical wave, which means that it needs a medium to propagate itself at constant speed. The time needed to hear the echo is equal to twice the height of the canyon divided by the velocity of sound. In addition, the speed of sound through the air at a temperature of 20 ºC is approximately 344 meters per second. Then, the height of the canyon can be derived from the following kinematic formula:
(1)
Where:
- Height, measured in meters.
- Velocity of sound, measured in meters per second.
- Time, measured in seconds.
If we know that
and
, then the height of the canyon is:



The sound travelled 516 meters before bouncing off a cliff.
The bouncy ball experiences the greater momentum change.
To understand why, you need to remember that momentum is actually
a vector quantity ... it has a size AND it has a direction too.
The putty and the ball have the same mass, and you throw them
with the same speed. So, on the way from your hand to the wall,
they both have the same momentum.
Call it " M in the direction toward the wall ".
After they both hit the wall:
-- The putty has zero momentum.
Its momentum changed by an amount of M .
-- The ball has momentum of " M in the direction away from the wall ".
Its momentum changed by an amount of 2M .
Answer:
At 2km/h*s it is changing speed every 2 seconds.
At 4km/h*s it is changing speed every 4 seconds.
At 10km/h*s it is changing speed every 10 seconds.
Answer:
6
Explanation:
Given that
dsinθ = mλ,
now, if sinθ = 1, then
m = d / λ, where
m = order of interference
d = distance between the slits
λ = wavelength of light
this is the formula we would use to solve the question
d = 1 / 320 lines/mm
d = 1 / 320*10^3
d = 3.125*10^-6 m
At λ = 551 nm, we have
m = 3.125*10^-6 / 551*10^-9
m = 5.67
5.67 ~ 6
thus, we can say that the orders of visible wavelength 551 nm, can produce is 6
