A motion sensor emits sound, and detects an echo 0.0115 s after. A short time later, it again emits a sound, and hears an echo a

fter 0.0183 s. How far has the reflecting object moved? (Speed of sound = 343 m/s) (Unit = m)​

Answer:

1.17 m

Explanation:

From the question,

s₁ = vt₁/2................ Equation 1

Where s₁ = distance of the reflecting object for the first echo, v = speed of the sound in air, t₁ = time to dectect the first echo.

Given: v = 343 m/s, t = 0.0115 s

Substitute into equation 1

s₁ = (343×0.0115)/2

s₁ = 1.97 m.

Similarly,

s₂ = vt₂/2.................. Equation 2

Where s₂ = distance of the reflecting object for the second echo, t₂ = Time taken to detect the second echo

Given: v = 343 m/s, t₂ = 0.0183 s

Substitute into equation 2

s₂ = (343×0.0183)/2

s₂ = 3.14 m

The distance moved by the reflecting object from s₁ to s₂ = s₂-s₁

s₂-s₁ =  (3.14-1.97) m = 1.17 m

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

1) The matter absorbs or reflects the light

2) Lens

3) <u><em>Concave</em></u>- curves inwards.  Diverges light

b.<u><em>Convex</em></u>- curves outward.  Converges light

4) The image is real if the distance of the object from the lens is greater than the focal length and virtual if it is less than the focal length

5) Lens and, for convex lenses, on the distance between the lens and the object.

6) Index of refraction?

Starting from rest, a solid sphere rolls without slipping down an incline plane. At the bottom of the incline, what does the ang
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

2/R*sqrt (g*s*sin(θ)) = w

Explanation:

Assume:

- The cylinder with mass m

- The radius of cylinder R

- Distance traveled down the slope is s

- The angular speed at bottom of slope w

- The slope of the plane θ

- Frictionless surface.

Solution:

- Using energy principle at top and bottom of the slope. The exchange of gravitational potential energy at height h, and kinetic energy at the bottom of slope.

                                         ΔPE = ΔKE

- The change in gravitational potential energy is given as m*g*h.

- The kinetic energy of the cylinder at the bottom is given as rotational motion: 0.5*I*w^2

- Where I is the moment of inertia of the cylinder I = 0.5*m*R^2

We have:

                              m*g*s*sin(θ) = 0.25*m*R^2*w^2

                              2/R*sqrt (g*s*sin(θ)) = w

- The angular velocity depends on plane geometry θ , distance travelled down slope s, Radius of the cylinder R , and gravitational acceleration g

Calculate the orbital period of a dwarf planet found to have a semimajor axis of a = 4.0x 10^12 meters in seconds and years.
padilas [110]

Explanation:

We have,

Semimajor axis is 4\times 10^{12}\ m

It is required to find the orbital period of a dwarf planet. Let T is time period. The relation between the time period and the semi major axis is given by Kepler's third law. Its mathematical form is given by :

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi ^2}{GM}a^3

G is universal gravitational constant

M is solar mass

Plugging all the values,

T^2=\dfrac{4\pi ^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 1.98\times 10^{30}}\times (4\times 10^{12})^3\\\\T=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\pi^{2}}{6.67\times10^{-11}\times1.98\times10^{30}}\times(4\times10^{12})^{3}}\\\\T=4.37\times 10^9\ s

Since,

1\ s=3.17\times 10^{-8}\ \text{years}\\\\4.37\times 10^9\ s=4.37\cdot10^{9}\cdot3.17\cdot10^{-8}\\\\4.37\times 10^9\ s=138.52\ \text{years}

So, the orbital period of a dwarf planet is 138.52 years.
