Alice drops a rock to a well. She hears the splash of the rock 4.1s later. The speed of sound is 340m/s. How deep is the well

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

697 m

Explanation:

From the question above,

Note: Alice hears the splash of the rock in the well through the help of echo.

Applying,

v = 2x/t........................ Equation 1

Where v = speed of sound, x = depth of the well, t = time.

make x the subject of the formula in equation 1

x = vt/2................... Equation 2.

Given: v = 340 m/s, t = 4.1 s

Substitute these values into equation 2

x = 340(4.1)/2

x = 697 m.

Sort the chemical equations based on the chemical reactions they represent.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Decomposition reactions are said to be those reactions in which a reactants breakdown into two or more products. The general reaction for decomposition reactions is as follow,

ABC → A + B + C

Specific Examples are as,

Water → Hydrogen + Oxygen

2 H₂O → 2 H₂ + O₂

Calcium carbonate → Calcium oxide + Carbon dioxide

CaCO₃ → CaO + CO₂

While, Synthetic reactions are said to be those reactions in which two or more reactants combine to form two or more products. The general reaction for synthetic reactions is as follow,

A + B + C → ABC

Specific Examples are as,

Iron + Oxygen → Iron Oxide

2 Fe + 3 O₂ → 2 Fe₂O₃

Sodium + Chlorine → Sodium chloride

2 Na + Cl₂ → 2 NaCl

Sulfur + Oxygen → Sulfur dioxide

S + O₂ → SO₂

Potassium + Chlorine → Potassium chloride

2 K + Cl₂ → 2 KCl

A ball is thrown into the air with 100 J of kinetic energy, which is transformed to gravitational potential energy

goblinko [34]

Answer:

Air resistance

Explanation:

Despite the law of conservation of energy stating that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can only be transformed from one state to another, some energy is usually lost in the process of transformation and its majorly attributed to frictional loss. Friction opposes normal movement hence in air, air resistance tends to reduce the original energy compared to the initial. That is why the final energy in this case is slightly less than the original energy.

A 1500-kg car locks its brakes and skids to a stop on a slippery horizontal road, leaving skid marks that are 15 m long. How muc

Harman [31]

Answer:

$E=88200\ J$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of car, $m=1500\ kg$

distance of skidding after the application of brakes, $d=15\ m$

coefficient of kinetic friction, $\mu_k=0.4$

<u>So, the energy dissipated during the skidding of car:</u>

<em>Frictional force:</em>

$f=\mu_k.N$

where N = normal reaction by ground on the car

$f=0.4\ties 1500\times 9.8$

$f=5880\ N$

<em>Now from the work-energy equivalence:</em>

$E=f.d$

$E=5880\times 15$

$E=88200\ J$ is the dissipated energy.

Charge is uniformly distributed around a ring of radius R and the resulting electric field magnitude E is measured along the rin

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

$x=\dfrac{r}{\sqrt2}$

Explanation:

Given that

Radius =r

Electric filed =E

Q=Charge on the ring

The electric filed at distance x given as

$E=K\dfrac{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{3/2}}$

For maximum condition

$\dfrac{dE}{dx}=0$

$E=K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-3/2}}$

$\dfrac{dE}{dx}=K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-3/2}}-\dfrac{3}{2}\times 2\times x\times K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-5/2}}$

For maximum condition

$\dfrac{dE}{dx}=0$

$K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-3/2}}-\dfrac{3}{2}\times 2\times x\times K{Q}{(r^2+x^2)^{-5/2}}=0$

$r^2+x^2-3x^2=0$

$x=\dfrac{r}{\sqrt2}$

At $x=\dfrac{r}{\sqrt2}$ the electric field will be maximum.
