Answer:

About two kilometers away

\rm distance=2.401\ km

Explanation:

Given:

The time gap between the light and sound to travel to the house, t=7\ s

<em>Since the clouds are formed in the troposphere region of the atmosphere which extends from 8 kilometers to 12 kilometers above the earth-surface and the velocity of light is 300000 kilometers per second so it is visible almost instantly, hence we neglect the time taken by the light to travel to the house from the clouds.</em>

<u>∴Distance between the lightning-strike and the house:</u>

\rm distance=v\times t

we have the speed of sound as: v=343\ m.s^{-1}

So,

\rm distance=343\times 7

\rm distance=2401\ m

\rm distance=2.401\ km

DIA [1.3K]

Responder:

20πrads ^ -1; 24πrads ^ -1; 0,1 seg; 10 Hz

Explicación:

Dado lo siguiente:

Radio (r) del círculo = 120 cm

600 revoluciones por minuto en radianes por segundo

(600 / min) * (2π rad / 1 rev) * (1min / 60seg)

(1200πrad / 60sec) = 20π rad ^ -1

Velocidad angular (w) = 20πrads ^ -1

Velocidad lineal = radio (r) * velocidad angular (w)

Velocidad lineal = (120/100) * 20πrad

Velocidad lineal = 1.2 * 20πrads ^ -1 = 24πrads ^ -1

C.) Período (T):

T = 2π / w = 2π / 20π = 0.1 seg

D.) Frecuencia (f):

f = 1 / T = 1 / 0.1

1 / 0,1 = 10 Hz

Which considerations are used to calculate a windchill factor? Select two options.
vlada-n [284]

Wind speed and air temperature are used to calculate a windchill factor.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u></u>

Wind-chill factor is the reduction of body temperature due to the passing flow of lower-temperature air.

The air temperature  value is always higher than the wind chill numbers. the heat index will be used if the apparent temperature is higher than the air temperature.So, Wind speed and air temperature are mainly used to calculate a windchill factor.

There are many ways, the surface loses its heat through conduction, evaporation,radiation, and convection.The rate of convection depends on  the difference in temperature between the surface and the fluid surrounding the surface and the velocity of that fluid with respect to the surface. The air around the warm surface will be heated, an insulating  layer of warm air forms against the surface.The layer becomes a boundary between two. As the wind speed is high the surface cools down rapidly.

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.
Below is the solution:

 <span>centripetal accel = 1.5*g 
ω²r = 1.5*9.8m/s² 
ω² * 8m = 14.7 m/s² 
ω = 1.36 rad/s * 1rev/2πrads * 60s/min = 12.9 rpm</span>
