delivery ladies is Shivam noted at the thundering sound of 6 second after the lightning was seen by him

vitfil [10]

Answer:

this is due to difference in speeds of sound and light

Explanation:

light has a speed of 3×10^8 m/s and it is seen at once because it takes negligible time due to very high speed and short distance that is why as soon as lightning occurs we can see it . since thundering sound travels with speed of sound which is about 330 to 340 m/s in air hence it takes some time as described in question as 6 seconds

A ringing bell sends sound waves in all<br> directions<br> places<br> sides

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

direction

Explanation:

because particles surround the bell, so when the bell vibrates, it causes particles surrounding it to vibrate back and forth vigorously. as these particles vibrate they collide with the neighbouring particles, passing on the energy.

hope this is what you are asking, if not please report it so that someone else gets to try it.

A 0.25 kg ball is suspended from a light 0.65 m string as shown. The string makes an angle of 31° with the vertical. Let U = 0 w

steposvetlana [31]

Explanation:

a) The height of the ball h with respect to the reference line is

$h = L - L\cos{31°} = L(1 - \cos{31°})$

so its initial gravitational potential energy $U_0$ is

$U = mgh = mgL(1 - \cos{31°})$

$\:\:\:\:\:=(0.25\:\text{kg})(9.8\:\text{m/s}^2)(0.65\:\text{m})(1 - \cos{31})$

$\:\:\:\:\:=0.23\:\text{J}$

b) To find the speed of the ball at the reference point, let's use the conservation law of energy:

$\Delta{K} + \Delta{U} = 0 \Rightarrow K_0 + U_0 = K + U$

We know that the initial kinetic energy $K_0,$ as well as its final gravitational potential energy $U$ are zero so we can write the conservation law as
