A person hears the echo of his own voice from a distant hill after 2 seconds. How far away is the person from the hill, if the s
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer: 330 m

Explanation:

The speed of sound V is defined as the distance traveled by the sound wave d in a especific time t:  

V=\frac{d}{t}  

Where:  

V=330 m/s is the speed of sound  

t=\frac{2 s}{2}=1 s is half the time the sound wave travels since the person speaks, the sound wave hits the hill and then returns to the person again  as an echo

d is the distance between the person and the hill

So, we have to find d:

d=Vt

d=(330 m/s)(1 s)

Finally:

d=330 m

Calculate the power of the elevator if it can raise 290 kg of mass 30 flights of stairs (300 m) in 17 seconds
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Power =  50204 [watts]

Explanation:

We know that the power is defined by the following expression:

Power = Work/time

where:

Power [watts]

time [seconds]

The work done will be the following:

Work = Force * distance [Joules]

Force[Newtons]

distance[meters]

Force = mass* gravity

Force=290 [kg]*9.81[m/s^2] =2844.9[N]

Work = 2844.9[N]*300[m] = 853470[J]

Therefore

Power = 853470 / 17 = 50204 [watts]

In getting ready to slam-dunk the ball, a basketball player starts from rest and sprints to a speed of 4.82 m/s in 1.98 s. Assu
Ann [662]
Great equation: distance = rate*time

So, distance run = 4.82 meters/second * 1.98 seconds = 9.5436 meters (round according to whatever the problem specifies, usually to the tenths or hundredths is sufficient).

This makes sense if you think about it since you are multiplying seconds with meters over seconds. The seconds cancel out, leaving you only the meters.
