Answer: 56.44°
Explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
- Let u represent the current speed of the plane, <u>1.2 Mach</u>
<em>Converting to SI Units (m/s):</em>
= (1.2 mach)(340 ms^-1 / 1 Mach)
u = 408 m/s
- Speed of sound in air, v = 340 m/s
<u>Find:</u>
- Angle the wave front of the shock wave relative to the plane's direction of motion, θ
We have, sinθ = speed of sound / speed of object
sinθ = v / u
θ = sin^-1 (v / u)
= sin^-1 (340 / 408)
θ = 56.44°
The answer is B. Old cells need to create new cells to replenish the ones that were lost.
The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Distance = (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)
We want to see how the time will be affected
if ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does.
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '.
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Multiply each side by 2 : 2 D = g t²
Divide each side by ' g ' : 2 D/g = t²
Square root each side: t = √ (2D/g)
Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens
to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:
-- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'
and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .
-- They don't change by the same factor, because 1/g is inside
the square root. So 't' changes the same amount as √1/g does.
Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly 1/6 the value
of gravity on the surface of the Earth.
So we expect ' t ' to increase by √6 = 2.45 times.
It would take the same bottle (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds
to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the
surface of the Moon.
The height of the liquid column is 4.08 metres.
