Answer: 330 m

Explanation:

The speed of sound V is defined as the distance traveled by the sound wave d in a especific time t:  

V=\frac{d}{t}  

Where:  

V=330 m/s is the speed of sound  

t=\frac{2 s}{2}=1 s is half the time the sound wave travels since the person speaks, the sound wave hits the hill and then returns to the person again  as an echo

d is the distance between the person and the hill

So, we have to find d:

d=Vt

d=(330 m/s)(1 s)

Finally:

d=330 m

After landing on an unfamiliar planet, a space explorer constructs a simple pendulum of length 54.0 cm. The explorer finds that
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

g = 11.2 m/s²

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the time period of the pendulum:

T = \frac{t}{n}

where,

T = Time period = ?

t = time taken = 135 s

n = no. of swings in given time = 98

Therefore,

T = \frac{135\ s}{98}

T = 1.38 s

Now, we utilize the second formula for the time period of the simple pendulum, given as follows:

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}

where,

l = length of pendulum = 54 cm = 0.54 m

g = acceleration due to gravity on the planet = ?

Therefore,

(1.38\ s)^2 = 4\pi^2(\frac{0.54\ m}{g} )\\\\g = \frac{4\pi^2(0.54\ m)}{(1.38\ s)^2}

<u>g = 11.2 m/s²</u>
