Answer:
1.17 m
Explanation:
From the question,
s₁ = vt₁/2................ Equation 1
Where s₁ = distance of the reflecting object for the first echo, v = speed of the sound in air, t₁ = time to dectect the first echo.
Given: v = 343 m/s, t = 0.0115 s
Substitute into equation 1
s₁ = (343×0.0115)/2
s₁ = 1.97 m.
Similarly,
s₂ = vt₂/2.................. Equation 2
Where s₂ = distance of the reflecting object for the second echo, t₂ = Time taken to detect the second echo
Given: v = 343 m/s, t₂ = 0.0183 s
Substitute into equation 2
s₂ = (343×0.0183)/2
s₂ = 3.14 m
The distance moved by the reflecting object from s₁ to s₂ = s₂-s₁
s₂-s₁ = (3.14-1.97) m = 1.17 m
I believe it’s A. I know for sure it isn’t D.
Explanation:
the table and the wooden block
Answer:
D)Not enough information
Explanation:
According to Pascal's principle, the pressure exerted on the two pistons is equal:
Pressure is given by the ratio between force F and area A, so we can write
The force exerted on each piston is just equal to the weight of the corresponding mass: 
, where m is the mass and g is the gravitational acceleration. So the equation becomes
Now we can rewrite the mass as the product of volume, V, times density, d:
We also know that 
So we can further re-arrange the equation (and simplify g as well):
We are also told that block B has bigger volume than block A: 
. However, this information is not enough to allow us to say if the fraction on the right is greater than 1 or smaller than 1: therefore, we cannot conclude anything about the densities of the two objects.
The law of conservation of matter states that matter cannot be created nor destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another. To state an example where this is shown, let's say a piece of paper is burning. Not having a scientific background, you would say that the matter is being destroyed. But in reality, the paper is simple being transformed to ash, carbon dioxide, and water vapor. Overall, the total mass would still remain the same.
