$\small\bf \: let \: the \: distance \: of \: the \: man \: from \: the \: cliff \: be \: x$

$\small\bf \: thus \: time \: taken \: by \: sound \: to \: hit \: the \: cilff \: and \: return = \frac{2x}{v} = 1$

$\bf \to \: x = \frac{320}{2} m = 160m$

$\small \bf \: thus \: the \: distance \: between \: the \: cliffs \: = 160m \times 2 = 320m$

How long will your trip take if you travel 4000 m at an average speed of 8m/s

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

500 sec

8 min 20 sec

Explanation:

Hi there !

8 m ................ 1 s

4000 m ........ x s

x = 4000m×1s/8m = 500 sec = 8 min 20 sec

Good luck !

A parcel of land is in the shape of an isosceles triangle. The base has a length of 425 ft.; the other sides, which are of equal

kogti [31]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 636.6 ft

Explanation:

Data

base = 425 ft

angle = 39°

See the picture below

1.- Divide the triangle to get two right triangles.

Now the superior angle will measure 19.5° and the opposite side will measure 212.5 ft

2.- Use the trigonometric function sine to find the hypotenuse

sin 19.5 = 212.5/hyp

solve for hyp

hyp = 212.5 / sin 19.5

Result

hyp = 212.5/ 0.333

hyp = 636.6 ft

An airliner arrives at the terminal, and its engines are shut off. The rotor of one of the engines has an initial clockwise angu

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

(a) 1200 rad/s

The angular acceleration of the rotor is given by:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}$

where we have

$\alpha = -80.0 rad/s^2$ is the angular acceleration (negative since the rotor is slowing down)

$\omega_f$ is the final angular speed

$\omega_i = 2000 rad/s$ is the initial angular speed

t = 10.0 s is the time interval

Solving for $\omega_f$ , we find the final angular speed after 10.0 s:

$\omega_f = \omega_i + \alpha t = 2000 rad/s + (-80.0 rad/s^2)(10.0 s)=1200 rad/s$

(b) 25 s

We can calculate the time needed for the rotor to come to rest, by using again the same formula:

$\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{t}$

If we re-arrange it for t, we get:

$t = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_i}{\alpha}$

where here we have

$\omega_i = 2000 rad/s$ is the initial angular speed

$\omega_f=0$ is the final angular speed

$\alpha = -80.0 rad/s^2$ is the angular acceleration

Solving the equation,

$t=\frac{0-2000 rad/s}{-80.0 rad/s^2}=25 s$
