Answer:Because of their strong winds, jet streams play an important role in the economy of the aviation industry. When an airplane flies into a jet stream for any period of time, extra fuel must be used. Not only is the fuel expensive, but it takes up room where either passengers or cargo could be. Just the opposite occurs when an airplane flies with a jet stream at its back. Fuel and money are saved because the wind pushes the plane along.
Explanation:
Answer:
20 Hz, 20000 Hz
0.0166 m, 16.6 m
Explanation:
The minimum frequency that a human ear can hear is 20 Hz
The maximum frequency that a human ear can hear is 20000 Hz.
v = Velocity of sound = 332 m/s
Wavelength is given by
The longest wavelength that can be heard by the human ear is 16.6 m
The shortest wavelength that can be heard by the human ear is 0.0166 m.
Answer:
t = 20.96 seconds
Explanation:
given,
lightning strikes at = 4.5 mi( 23,760 ft)
air temperature =74.0°F
74.0°F = 23.3 °C
speed of the sound at 23.3 °C
V = 331.5 + 0.6 × T
V = 331.5 + 0.6 × 23.3
= 345.48 m/s
distance given = 4.5 mile
1 mile = 1609.4
4.5 mile = 4.5 × 1609.4 = 7242.3 m
time taken =
t = 20.96 seconds
hence, time taken by the sound to reach by the observer is 20.96 sec.
