A rock is dropped from a height of 2.7m. How fast is it going when it hits the ground?

a person hears an echo from the top of a tower , 2.2 second after the sound is produced.how far away is the tower from the perso

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

730.4 m

Explanation:

The sound waves travels with a uniform motion (=constant velocity), therefore we can calculate the distance it travels using the formula:

$d=vt$

where

d is the distance

v is the speed of the sound wave

t is the time taken

In this problem we have:

v = 332 m/s is the speed of sound in air

t = 2.2 s is the time elapsed

Therefore, the distance between the tower and the person is

$d=(332)(2.2)=730.4 m$

calculate the electric field strength between two parallel plates separated by 0.50 cm, across which is a potential of 12 volts.

Alexxandr [17]

Formula for Electric Field strength , E = V/d

where V = Voltage in volts, and d = distance of separation in meters.

d = 0.5 cm = 0.005 m, V = 12 V

E = V/d = 12 / 0.005

E = 2400

Electric Field Strength = 2400 Volts/meter

When approaching an intersection, bridge, or railroad crossing, you should never drive (pass on the left half of the roadway whe

e-lub [12.9K]

You should not go into the left side of the roadway when within 100 feet of the crossing. Moreover, you should also turn on your turn signal when within 100 of a turn. These precautions prevent accidents as it makes clear to other drivers what your intentions are and drivers making turns are not endangered.

We have two solenoids: solenoid 2 has twice the diameter, half the length, and twice as many turns as solenoid 1. The current in

leva [86]

Answer:

the field at the center of solenoid 2 is 12 times the field at the center of solenoid 1.

Explanation:

Recall that the field inside a solenoid of length L, N turns, and a circulating current I, is given by the formula:

$B=\mu_0\, \frac{N}{L} I$

Then, if we assign the subindex "1" to the quantities that define the magnetic field ( $B_1$ ) inside solenoid 1, we have:

$B_1=\mu_0\, \frac{N_1}{L_1} I_1$

notice that there is no dependence on the diameter of the solenoid for this formula.

Now, if we write a similar formula for solenoid 2, given that it has :

1) half the length of solenoid 1 . Then $L_2=L_1/2$

2) twice as many turns as solenoid 1. Then $N_2=2\,N_1$

3) three times the current of solenoid 1. Then $I_2=3\,I_1$

we obtain:

$B_2=\mu_0\, \frac{N_2}{L_2} I_2\\B_2=\mu_0\, \frac{2\,N_1}{L_1/2} 3\,I_1\\B_2=\mu_0\, 12\,\frac{N_1}{L_1} I_1\\B_2=12\,B_1$
