Answer:

t=1.623 sec

Explanation:

The distance traveled before the echo is had is:

distance=2d, d=280\ m\\\\=280\times 2\\\\=560 \ m

Given the speed of sound as v=345m/s, we use the speed equation to solve for t:

v=\frac{d}{t}\\\\345\ m/s=\frac{560m}{t}\\\\t=\frac{560}{360}\\\\=1.623 \ s

Hence, it takes 1.623 seconds to hear the echo.

Imagine a negative test charge sitting at the coordinate origin (0,0). Two bunches of positive charges are located on the x-axis
Oxana [17]

Answer:

the total force vector, on test charge is points from origin to point C( 1, 1 )

Explanation:

Given the data in the question, as illustrated in the image below;

from the Image, OA = 1, OB = AC = 1

so using Pythagoras theorem

a² = b² + c²

a = √( b² + c² )

so

OC = √( OB² + AC² )

we substitute

OC = √( OA² + AC² )

OC = √( 1² + 1² )

OC = √( 1 + 1 )

OC = √2

Coordinate of C( 1, 1 )

Hence, the total force vector, on test charge is points from origin to point C( 1, 1 )

The closeness of measured values to an accepted value is the BLANK of the data ?
wlad13 [49]
When you refer to how close a measured value is to a standard, accepted or known value, you are talking about the ACCURACY of the data. This is the definition of accuracy when it comes to engineering and other fields of science. 

Accuracy is usually associated or with the term precision, as their definitions are often interchanged.

You run a race with your friend. At first you each have the same kinetic energy, but then you find that she is beating you. When
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

52.49 Kg

Explanation:

Let m1 and v1 denote your mass and velocity respectively

Let m2 and v2 denote your friends mass and velocity respectively

Kinetic energy is given by

KE= 0.5mv^{2}  

Since your kinetic energies are the same hence

0.5m1(v1)^{2}=0.5m2(v2)^{2}

m1(v1)^{2}=m2(v2)^{2} and making m2 the subject then  

m2=\frac { m1(v1)^{2}}{(v2)^{2}}

Since v2 is v1+0.28v1=1.28v1

Substituting m1 for 86 Kg

m2=\frac { 86 Kg(v1)^{2}}{(1.28v1)^{2}}= 52.49023\approx 52.49 Kg

A 2 nC point charge is at the origin, and a second 5 nC point charge is on the x-axis at x = 8 m. Find the electric field (magni
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

The magnitude of  the electric field is 5.75 N/C towards positive x- axis.

Explanation:

Given that,

Point charge at origin = 2 nC

Second charge = 5 nC

Distance at x axis = 8 m

We need to calculate the electric field at the point x = 2 m

Using formula of electric field

E=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}(\dfrac{q_{1}}{r_{1}^2}+\dfrac{q_{2}}{r_{2}^2})

Put the value into the formula

E=9\times10^{9}\times(\dfrac{2\times10^{-9}}{2^2}+\dfrac{5\times10^{-9}}{(8-2)^2})

E=5.75\ N/C

The direction is toward positive x- axis.

Hence, The magnitude of  the electric field is 5.75 N/C towards positive x- axis.

What is the velocity of an object that has been in free fall for 1.5s?
Crank

Answer:

D. 15 m/s downward

Explanation:

v = at + v₀

v = (-9.8 m/s²) (1.5 s) + (0 m/s)

v = -14.7 m/s

Rounded to two significant figures, the answer is D, 15 m/s downward.
