The sonar pulse takes t=4.2 s to reach the ocean bottom and then to travel back tothe ship. If we call d the depth of the ocean bottom, this means that the sonar pulse covered a distance equal to 2d in a time of 4.2 s.

The speed of the sonar pulse is the speed of sound in water at 25C, so looking at the table is v=1493 m/s. Using the relationship v= \frac{S}{t} between space and time for a uniform motion, and keeping in mind that the total distance covered by the pulse is 2d, we can write:
v= \frac{2d}{t}
which becomes
d= \frac{vt}{2}= \frac{(1493 m/s)(4.2 s)}{2}=3135 m
so, the ocean bottom is 3135 m deep.

A 3.20 kg block starts at rest and slides a distance d down a frictionless β = 30.0 ◦ incline, where it runs into a spring with
Virty [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) work done by gravitational force

= mg sinθ ( d + .21)

Potential energy stored in compressed spring

= 1/2 k x²

= .5 x 431 x ( .21 )²

= 9.5

According to conservation of energy

mg sinθ ( d + .21)  = 9.5

3.2 x 9.8 x sin 30( d + .21 ) = 9.5

d = 40 cm

b )

As long as mg sin30 is greater than kx ( restoring force ) , there will be acceleration in the block.

mg sin30 = kx

3.2 x 9.8 x .5 = 431 x

x =  3.63 cm

When there is compression of 3.63 cm in the spring , block will have maximum velocity. there after its speed will start decreasing.

Explain the relationships between gravity, mass, and distance.
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

As the mass of an object increases, its gravitational force increases.

As an object's distance to other objects increases, its gravitational force on those objects increases.

Explanation:

The gravitational force of one object on another is calculated with the equation

F = (G*m1*m2)/(r²),

where G is the gravitational constant,

M1 and M2 are the masses of the two objects, and

r is the distance between them

We can see that the force has a direct relationship with both of the mass values, and an inverse square relationship with the distance between them.

Hope this helped!

After release of jet, energy is lost by the engine. How principle of conservation of energy is obeyed in this condition.​
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

The principle of conservation of energy states that in a closed system, the energy can neither be created nor destroyed between interacting particles and remains constant or transformed from one form to another

In the jet engine, the release of jet changes the number of interacting particles in the engine, and given that energy cannot be created in the instantaneously closed system of the engine, energy is carried away and therefore lost by particles in the jet exhaust

The conservation of energy principle is therefore obeyed in the condition in which the jet engine losses energy by the release of jet

Compare mass and weight
netineya [11]

Answer:

The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.
