The submarine emits a pulse of sound to detect other objects in the sea. The sped of sound in sea water is 1500m/s. An echo is r

eceived with a time delay of 0.50s after the original sound is emitted.

Answer:

d = 375 m

Explanation:

The speed of sound is constant in any medium, therefore we can use the uniform motion relationships

          v = x / t

          x = v t

In this case it indicates that the time since the sound is emitted and received is t = 0.50 s, in this time the sound traveled a round trip distance

           x = 2d

          2d = v t

          d = v t/2

     

let's calculate

          d = 1500 0.5 / 2

          d = 375 m

What caused magnetic fields? What happens If you keep breaking a magnet in two until you reach a single atom?
mote1985 [20]

magnetic materials will produce magnetic field near it

All magnets are made up of small magnet type atoms which are known as domains

These all atoms will align itself so that they all produce strong magnetic field along the axis

this magnetic field will become more strong as more number of atoms are aligned.

Now if we break the magnet into small piece then the magnetic field strength will start decreasing and at the end when only one atom will remain then the magnetic field strength will reduce to the field of one atom only.

A ball is dropped from the top of the building.it initially moves at 4.0 m/s after 0.5 seconds it moves at 3.8m/s what force is
Ivahew [28]

The correct answer is

Air resistance

In fact, when a ball is in free fall, there are two forces acting on it:

- its weight (force of gravity), acting downward

- the air resistance, acting upward

The effect of the weight is to accelerate the ball, because its direction is the same as the direction of motion of the ball, while the effect of the air resistance is to slow down the ball, because its direction is opposite to that of the motion.

How does the amount of atmosphere affect what color the sky appears to be?
weeeeeb [17]
The atmosphere creates a cover over the earth preventing us from seeing space and it’s natural color and the light that is created by the sun reflected on the ocean creates the color that the sky appears to be blue

Which can do work faster-a 700 watt gasoline engine or a 300 watt electric motor
iogann1982 [59]

"700 watts" means 700 joules of work per second.

"300 watts" means 300 joules of work per second.

If the labels on both machines are true, and both machines
are loaded to their full capacity, then the 700-watt engine
is doing work faster than the 300-watt one.
