Answer:

t = 1.52 s

Explanation:

The speed of sound is constant and depends only on the properties of the medium in which the sound propagates, many of these properties change with temperature, in the case of propagation in air, the speed of sound

v = $331 \ \sqrt{1+ \frac{T}{273} }$

where the temperature is in degrees centigrade

v = 331 $\sqrt{1+ \frac{6}{273} }$ = 331 1.0109

v = 334.6 m / s

let's use the uniform motion relationships

v = x / t

t = v / x

let's calculate

t = 334.6 / 220.0

t = 1.52 s

A basketball player is 4.22 m from

max2010maxim [7]

Answer: The height above the release point is 2.96 meters.

Explanation:

The acceleration of the ball is the gravitational acceleration in the y axis.

A = (0, -9.8m/s^)

For the velocity we can integrate over time and get:

V(t) = (9.20m/s*cos(69°), -9.8m/s^2*t + 9.20m/s^2*sin(69°))

for the position we can integrate it again over time, but this time we do not have any integration constant because the initial position of the ball will be (0,0)

P(t) = (9.20*cos(69°)*t, -4.9m/s^2*t^2 + 9.20m/s^2*sin(69°)*t)

now, the time at wich the horizontal displacement is 4.22 m will be:

4.22m = 9.20*cos(69°)*t

t = (4.22/ 9.20*cos(69°)) = 1.28s

Now we evaluate the y-position in this time:

h = -4.9m/s^2*(1.28s)^2 + 9.20m/s^2*sin(69°)*1.28s = 2.96m

The height above the release point is 2.96 meters.

The volume of an ideal gas is adiabatically reduced from 151 L to 80.6 L. The initial pressure and temperature are 1.50 atm and

Zolol [24]

Answer:

gas is dioatomic

T_f = 330.0 K

$\eta = 7.07 mole$

Explanation:

Part 1

below equation is used to determine the type Gas by determining $\gamma$ value

$\frac{V_{1}}{V_{F}}\gamma=\frac{P_{i}}{P_{f}}$

where V_i and V_f is initial and final volume respectively

and P_i and P_f are initial and final pressure

$\gamma = \frac{ln(P_f/P_i)}{ln(V_i/V_f)}$

$\gamma = \frac{ln(3.61/1.50)}{ln(151/80.6}$

\gamma = 1.38

therefore gas is dioatomic

Part 2

final temperature in adiabatic process is given as

$T_f = T_i*[\frac{v_i}{V_f}](^\gamma-1)$

substituing value to get final temperature

$T_f = 260*[\frac{151}{80.6}]^ {(1.38-1)}$

T_f = 330.0 K

Part 3

determine number of moles by using following formula

$\eta =\frac{PV}{RT}$

$\eta =\frac{1.013*10^{5}*0.151}{8.314*260}$

$\eta = 7.07 mole$

Yuri [45]

Answer:

the question is incomplete, the complete question is

"A circular coil of radius r = 5 cm and resistance R = 0.2 ? is placed in a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the coil. The magnitude of the field changes with time according to B = 0.5 e^-t T. What is the magnitude of the current induced in the coil at the time t = 2 s?"

2.6mA

Explanation:

we need to determine the emf induced in the coil and y applying ohm's law we determine the current induced.

using the formula be low,

$E=-\frac{d}{dt}(BACOS\alpha )\\$
