Answer:

The sea bed is 1125 m deep.

Explanation:

Speed

It's the rate of change of the distance (d) traveled by an object over time (t).

The speed can be calculated by the formula:

$\displaystyle v=\frac{d}{t}$

It's known the speed of sound in water is v=1500 m/s. A sound wave is sent to the sea bed and bounces back to the ship 1.5 seconds later.

That is the time the wave takes to travel twice the distance from the ship to the sea bed, thus the required distance uses half of that time or t=1.5/2 = 0.75 seconds.

Solving the equation for d:

d = v.t

d = 1500 m/s * 0.75 s

d = 1125 m

The sea bed is 1125 m deep.

A catapult launches a test rocket vertically upward from a well, giving the rocket an initial speed of 80.6 m/s at ground level.

Answer:

44.64 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 4.2\times 1180+80.6^2}\\\Rightarrow v=128.01\ m/s$

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 128.01=80.6+4.2t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{128.01-80.6}{4.2}=11.29\ s$

Time taken to reach 1180 m is 11.29 seconds

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow 0=128.01-9.8t\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{128.01}{9.8}=13.06\ s$

Time the rocket will keep going up after the engines shut off is 13.06 seconds.

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-128.01^2}{2\times -9.8}\\\Rightarrow s=836.05\ m$

The distance the rocket will keep going up after the engines shut off is 836.05 m

Total distance traveled by the rocket in the upward direction is 1180+836.05 = 2016.05 m

The rocket will fall from this height

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 2016.05=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{2016.05\times 2}{9.8}}\\\Rightarrow t=20.29\ s$

Time taken by the rocket to fall from maximum height is 20.29 seconds

Time the rocket will stay in the air is 11.29+13.06+20.29 = 44.64 seconds

What are 3 different forces that act on objects on the earth ΩvΩ

Stolb23 [73]

A force is a push or pull acting upon an object as a result of its interaction with another object. There are a variety of types of forces. a variety of force types were placed into two broad category headings on the basis of whether the force resulted from the contact or non-contact of the two interacting objects.

Contact Forces

Action-at-a-Distance Forces

Frictional Force
Gravitational Force
Tensional Force
Electrical Force
Normal Force
Magnetic Force
Air Resistance Force
Applied Force
Spring Force

These are types of individual forces

Applied Force
Gravitational Force
Normal Force
Frictional Force
Air Resistance Force
Tensional Force
Spring Force
