How do the echoes of the sounds of animals help them?

2 answers:

7 0

Animals like bats and whales use something called echolocation (sounds or echoes that travel to the other animal) these echoes can let one animal let another one know that danger is near or that food is nearby etc it's like a telephone line

Answer:

Echolocating animals emit calls out to the environment and listen to the echoes of those calls that return from various objects near them. They use these echoes to locate and identify the objects. Echolocation is used for navigation, foraging, and hunting in various environments.

The ratio of carbon-14 to nitrogen-14 is an artifact is 1:3. Given that half-life of carbon-14 is 5730years, how old is the arti

dusya [7]

Answer:

9155 years old

Explanation:

We use the following expression for the decay of a substance:

$N = N_0\,\,e^{-k*t}$

So we first estimate the value of k knowing that the half-life of the C14 is 5730 years:

$N = N_0\,\,e^{-k*t}\\N_0/2=N_0\,\,e^{-k*5730}\\1/2 = e^{-k*5730}\\ln(1/2)=-k*5730\\k= 0.00012$

so, now we can estimate the age of the artifact by solving for"t" in the equation:

$1/3=e^{-0.00012*t}\\ln(1/3)= -0.00012*t\\t=9155. 102$

which we can round to 9155 years old.

uppose two train cars are moving toward one another, the first with a mass of 150,000 kg and a velocity of 0.300 m/s; the second

kondaur [170]

The value was determined to be 0.122 m/s. The velocity of a body or object determines its direction of motion. Speed is a scalar quantity in its most fundamental form.

Velocity is essentially a vector quantity. It is the rate of change in distance. The initial speed of the first train, which has a mass of 150,000 kg, is 0.3 m/s. The second train has an initial speed of -0.120 m/s and a mass of 110,000 kg.

Let v represent the post-collision speed of the connected mass.

Utilize the idea of momentum.

The speed of the trains is constant both before and after a collision.

150.000 + 110.000v 45.000 - 13200 = 260.000 v 31800 = 260.000 v v = 0.122 m/s 150000 x 0.3 - 110000 x 0.120

After colliding, they move at a speed of 0.122 m/s towards the direction of the right.

A bird lands on a bare copper wire carrying a current of 51

nirvana33 [79]

The resistance of the piece of wire is
$R= \frac{\rho L}{A}$
where
$\rho = 1.68 \cdot 10^{-8}\Omega m$ is the resistivity of the copper
$L=5.1 cm=0.051 m$ is the length of the piece of wire
$A=0.13 cm^2 = 0.13 \cdot 10^{-4} m^2$ is the cross sectional area of the wire
By substituting these values, we find the value of R:
$R= \frac{\rho L}{A}=6.6 \cdot 10^{-5} \Omega$

Then, by using Ohm's law, we find the potential difference between the two points of the wire:
$V=IR=(51 A)(6.6 \cdot 10^{-5} \Omega )=3.4 \cdot 10^{-3} V$

Light travels through a liquid at 2.25e8 m/s. What is the index of refraction of the liquid?

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

The index of refraction of the liquid is n = 1.33 equivalent to that of water

Explanation:

Solution:-

- The index of refraction of light in a medium ( n ) determines the degree of "bending" of light in that medium.

- The index of refraction is material property and proportional to density of the material.

- The denser the material the slower the light will move through associated with considerable diffraction angles.

- The lighter the material the faster the light pass through the material without being diffracted as much.

- So, in the other words index of refraction can be expressed as how fast or slow light passes through a medium.

- The reference of comparison of how fast or slow the light is the value of c = 3.0*10^8 m/s i.e speed of light in vacuum or also assumed to be the case for air.

- so we can mathematically express the index of refraction as a ratio of light speed in the material specified and speed of light.

- The light passes through a liquid with speed v = 2.25*10^8 m/s :

$n = c / v\\\\n = \frac{ 3*10^8 }{2.25*10^8} \\\\n = 1.33$

- The index of refraction of the liquid is n = 1.33 equivalent to that of water.
