Answer:

the distance between the person and the hill is 330 m.

Explanation:

Given;

speed of sound in air, v = 330m/s

time of sound travel, t = 2 s

The distance between the person and the hill is calculated as;

Distance = Speed \ \times \ Time\\\\Time \ of \ echo = \frac{2\ \times \ distance}{speed} \\\\distance = \frac{Time \ of \ echo \ \times \ speed}{2} \\\\distance = \frac{2 \ \times \ 330}{2} \\\\distance = 330 \ m

Therefore, the distance between the person and the hill is 330 m.

A steel piano wire, of length 1.150 m and mass 4.80 g is stretched under a tension of 580.0 N.

A steel piano wire, of length 1.150 m and mass of 4.80 g is stretched under a tension of 580.0 N.the speed of transverse waves on the wire would be  372.77 m/s

<h3>What is a sound wave?</h3>

It is a particular variety of mechanical waves made up of the disruption brought on by the movements of the energy. In an elastic medium like the air, a sound wave travels through compression and rarefaction.

For calculating the wave velocity of the sound waves generated from the piano can be calculated by the formula

V= √F/μ

where v is the wave velocity of the wave travel on the string

F is the tension in the string of piano

μ is the mass per unit length of the string

As given in question a steel piano wire, of length 1.150 m and mass of 4.80 g is stretched under a tension of 580.0 N.

The μ is the mass per unit length of the string would be

μ = 4.80/(1.150×1000)

μ = 0.0041739 kg/m

By substituting the respective values of the tension on the string and the density(mass per unit length) in the above formula of the wave velocity

V= √F/μ

V=√(580/0.0041739)

V =  372.77 m/s

Thus,  the speed of transverse waves on the wire comes out to be  372.77 m/s

Passengers on an airplane move from rest to 86 meters per second before the airplane takes off. If the airplane takes 100 second
VikaD [51]

Utilize the formula:  V _{f} = V _{i} + a\Delta t

V _{f} = Final Velocity (86 m/s)

V _{f} = Initial Velocity (0 m/s)

a = acceleration (m/s²)

\Deltat = Time (100 seconds)

As a result,

86 m/s = 0 + (a)(100 seconds)

Using algebra, divide 86 m/s by 100 seconds:

86 m/s = 100a

a = 0.86 m/s²

Rounded to one decimal place: 0.9 m/s²

What is the component in a car engine that would detect the need for air?​
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Control of air–fuel ratio

Oxygen sensors tell the ECU whether the engine is running rich (too much fuel or too little oxygen) or running lean (too much oxygen or too little fuel) as compared to ideal conditions (known as stoichiometric).

What is the stretch when you pull with a force of 25 N on a spring with a spring constant of 8 N/m? *
Pani-rosa [81]

Hooke's Law

\tt F=k.\Delta x

k = spring constant

x = stretch

F = force

Input the value

\tt \Delta x=\dfrac{F}{k}=\dfrac{25}{8}=3.125\rightarrow 3.13\:m
