Answer:

Explanation:

mg = kx

k = mg/x

k = 0.40(9.8)/0.030

k = 130.66666...

k ≈ 130 N/m

One gallon of paint (volume = 3.79 X 10-???? m3) covers an area of 25.0 m2. What i the thickne s of the fresh paint on the wall?

Drupady [299]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Volume of paint is $V=3.79\times 10^{-3}\ m^3$

Area of cover $A=25\ m^2$

Suppose paint to be a rectangular box with thickness t and volume V

therefore we can write as

$V=A\times t$

$t=\frac{V}{A}$

$t=\frac{3.79\times 10^{-3}}{25}$

$t=1.516\times 10^{-3}\ m$

$t=1.516\ mm$

A bat emitts a sonar sound wave (343 m/s) that bounces off a mosquito 8.42 m away

Varvara68 [4.7K]

The time lapse between when the bat emits the sound and when it hears the echo is 0.05 s.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Velocity of sound (v) = 343 m/s

Distance (x) = 8.42 m

Time (t) =?

We can obtain obtained the time as illustrated below:

v = 2x / t

343 = 2 × 8.42 / t

343 = 16.84 / t

Cross multiply

343 × t = 16.84

Divide both side by 343

t = 16.84/343

t = 0.05 s

Thus, the time between when the bat emits the sound and when it hears the echo is 0.05 s.

<h3>How does a bat know how far away something is?</h3>

A bat emits a sound wave and carefully listens to the echoes that return to it. The returning information is processed by the bat's brain in the same way that we processed our shouting sound with a stopwatch and calculator. The bat's brain determines the distance of an object by measuring how long it takes for a noise to return.
