Answer. Time taken to hear the thunder is : 7500 / 343 = 21.88 Seconds.
Radda [10]3 years ago

Answer:

≈ 22 seconds

Explanation:

7,5 km = 7500 m

Speed of light 300 000 000 m/s (for lightning)

Speed of sound 343 m/s (for thunder)

time = distance / speed

lightning time = 7500 m / 300 000 000 m/s = 0.000025 s

thunder time = 7500 m / 343 m/s ≈ 22 s

thunder time - lightning time = 22 s - 0.000025 s ≈ 22 s

Write down the conservation of momentum?​
otez555 [7]
Law of conservation of momentum states that when two objects collide with each other , the sum of their linear momentum always remains same or we can say conserved and is not effected by any action, reaction only in case is no external unbalanced force is applied on the bodies.
Let,
m
A
​
= Mass of ball A
m
B
​
= Mass of ball B
u
A
​
= initial velocity of ball A
u
B
​
= initial velocity of ball B
v
A
​
= Velocity after the collision of ball A
v
B
​
= Velocity after the collision of ball B
F
ab
​
= Force exerted by A on B
F
ba
​
= Force exerted by B on A
Now,
Change in the momentum of A= momentum of A after the collision - the momentum of A before the collision
= m

​
v

Rate of change of momentum A= Change in momentum of A/ time taken

Force exerted by B on A (F

In the same way,
Rate of change of momentum of B=
t
m

​
v
B
​
−m

​

​

​

Force exerted by A on B (F

)=

​
=

​
v

​
−m

​

​

​
.......... [ii]
Newton's third law of motion states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction, then,
F

​
b=−F
b
​
a [ ' -- ' sign is used to indicate that 1 object is moving in opposite direction after collision]

Using [i] and [ii] , we have

Finally we get,

This is the derivation of conservation of linear momentum.

If you warm up the volume of a balloon but keep the pressure the same, you would be using which gas law?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Charles law

Explanation:

Charle's law states that the volume (V) of a given gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature (T) at a constant pressure.

That is;

: V ∝ T

: V/T = K

According to this question, the volume of a balloon is warmed up but the pressure is kept the same. Charles law will be used because it shows the relationship between the volume (V) and the temperature (heat) at a constant pressure (P).
