-- The speed of light in air is very close to 3 x 10⁸ m/s.
Whatever the actual number is, it's equivalent to roughly
7 times around the Earth in 1 second. So for this kind of
problem, you can assume that we see things at the same time
that they happen; don't bother worrying about how long it takes
for the light to reach you.
-- For sound, it's a different story. Sound in air only travels at
about 340 m/s. It takes sound almost 5 seconds to go 1 mile.
-- Now, the lightning and thunder happen at the same time.
The light travels to you at the speed of light, so you see the
lightning pretty much when it happens. But the sound of the
thunder comes poking along at 340 m/s, and arrives AFTER
the sight of the lightning.
The length of time between the sight and the sound is about
99.9999% the result of the time it takes the sound to reach you.
If the thunder arrived at you 3 seconds after the light did, then
the sound traveled
(340 m/s) x (3 s) = 1,020 meters .
(about 0.63 of a mile)
(If you're worried about ignoring the time it takes
for the light to reach you ...
It takes light 0.0000034 second to cover the same 1,020 meters,
so including it in the calculation would not change the answer.)
Answer:
The force is 15N
Explanation:
The formula is Force= mass × velocity.
From the question mass is 5kg, velocity is 3m/s.
F= 5×3
F= 15Newton.
Therefore the force is 15N.
Answer:
= 6.55cm
Explanation:
Given that,
distance = 1.26 m
distance between two fourth-order maxima = 53.6 cm
distance between central bright fringe and fourth order maxima
y = Y / 2
= 53.6cm / 2
= 26.8 cm
=0.268 m
tan θ = y / d
= 0.268 m / 1.26 m
= 0.2127
θ = 12°
4th maxima
d sinθ = 4λ
d / λ = 4 / sinθ
d / λ = 4 / sin 12°
d / λ = 19.239
for first (minimum)
d sinθ = λ / 2
sinθ = λ / 2d
= 1 / 2(19.239)
= 1 / 38.478
= 0.02599
θ = 1.489°
tan θ = y / d
y = d tan θ
= 1.26 tan 1.489°
= 0.03275
the total width of the central bright fringe
Y = 2y
= 2(0.03275)
= 0.0655m
= 6.55cm
Answer:
Valence electrons
Explanation:
The valence electrons are found in the outermost shell of an atom. They are the most loosely held electrons found within an atom. These valence electrons are involved and are used to form bonds when atoms combines together.
The energy required to remove these loosely held electrons is relatively low compared to electrons located in the inner orbitals. This is why when atoms combines, they use the outermost electrons to form bonds and mimic stable atoms like those of the noble gases.
Evaporation occurs when atoms/molecules leave the surface of the liquid.
Boiling occurs when this evaporation take a place in a body of the liquid.
