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

A runner makes one lap around a 200m track of 25s. What were the runners average speed and average velocity?
kobusy [5.1K]
Here is the answer. In order for us to get the speed, we are just going to use the formula speed is equal to distance over time. Given that the distance s 200m and the time is 25s, this would give us the answer of 8m/sec. Hope this answers your question.

A cube of side 6.50 cm is placed in a uniform field E = 7.50 × 10^3 N/C with edges parallel to the field lines (field enters the
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

a) \Phi_{net} = 0\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{C}, b) \Phi_{right} = -31.688\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{C}, c) \Phi_{left} = 31.688\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{C}

Explanation:

a) The net flux through the cube is:

\Phi_{net}=-(7.50\cdot 10^{3}\,\frac{N}{C} )\cdot (0.065\,m)^{2}+(7.50\cdot 10^{3}\,\frac{N}{C} )\cdot (0.065\,m)^{2}

\Phi_{net} = 0\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{C}

b) The flux through the right face is:

\Phi_{right}=-(7.50\cdot 10^{3}\,\frac{N}{C} )\cdot (0.065\,m)^{2}

\Phi_{right} = -31.688\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{C}

c) The flux through the left face is:

\Phi_{left}=(7.50\cdot 10^{3}\,\frac{N}{C} )\cdot (0.065\,m)^{2}

\Phi_{left} = 31.688\,\frac{N\cdot m^{2}}{C}
