Elephants can communicate using very low frequency sound waves over long distances. An elephant makes a noise below human hearin

g at 16Hz. This low rumble moves at 350 m/s (speed of sound in air). This sound is detected by her friend 25 seconds later.
How far away is her friend?

If an object falls far enough, it will reach terminal velocity. At this velocity, the force of air
love history [14]

Answer:

The object will contine to fall, but at a constant velocity.  There will be no more acceleration.

Explanation:  When the force of gravity is equal to the reverse force of air resistance, there will will be no net force on the falling obect.  F = ma, and F (net) = 0.  It will continue at the same speed until those forces become imbalanced again (such as when the force pushing up from the ground is greater than the force of gravity pulling it down).  The metric term for this sudden resistance is "crash/bang/clunk/yieouch."

How many joules of gravitational potential energy does a person have after they went up stairs that are 10 meters tall? Assume t
Sonja [21]

Answer:

P = 5880 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a person, m = 60 kg

The height of the stairs, h = 10 m

We need to find the gravitational potential energy of the person. The formula is as follows :

P=mgh

Substitute all the values,

P=60\times 9.8\times 10\\\\P=5880\ J

So, the required gravitational potential energy is equal to 5880 J.

15. Using 3 – 4 sentences, explain, in your own words, two ways you could cause an electrical current using only a wire and a ho
never [62]
An electric current will start to form when a part of the wire is within a magnetic field. Using the magnet you could put the whole wire into the magnetic field of the magnet and move it across the magnet so that a current starts to run.

Another way you could do it is to make the wire so that it looks like a coil and stick the magnet in the middle of the coil of wire. This will cause an induced current in the coil of wire.

If an astronaut can throw a certain wrench 10.0 m vertically upward on earth, how high could he throw it on our moon if he gives
Jobisdone [24]

I think you forgot to include the acceleration due to gravity of astronauts. I assume that it is = 0.170 g. To get the answer we have to use the formula s = v0t – (1/2) At². Where s is the altitude, A is the acceleration of gravity, t is the time after throwing.

v = v0 –At

v = 0 at max altitude so v0 – At = 0

t = v0/A at max altitude

Using the formula above for the altitude:

s = v0t – (1/2) At²

s = v0(v0/A) – (1/2) A (v0/A)²

s = v0²/A – (1/2) v0²/A

s = (1/2) v0²/A

The earth: E = (1/2) v0²/g

The moon: M = (1/2)v0²(0.17g)

So, take the ratio of M/E = g/0.17g = 1/0.17 = 588

M = 5.88 E

He can throw the wrench 5.88 times higher on the moon

<span>M =5.88 (10 m) = 58.8 meters that the can throw the wrench a little over on the moon.</span>

A motorcyclist changes the velocity of his bike from 20.0 meters/second to 35.0 meters/second under a constant acceleration of 4
shutvik [7]
You can use the equation V=Vo+at since the acceleration is constant. Plugging in the values you know, you will get an answer of 3.75 seconds
