A herdsman yelling out to a fellow herdsman heard his voice reflected by a cliff 4s later.What is
the velocity of sound in air if the cliff is 680m away​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

v = 340 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

A herdsman yelling out to a fellow herdsman heard his voice reflected by a cliff 4s later.

The cliff is 680 m away

We need to find the velocity of sound in air.

Velocity = distance/time

Distance = 2 × 680 = 1360 m

[tex]v=\dfrac{1360\ m}{4\ s}\\\\=340\ m/s[/tex]

So, the velocity of sound in air is 340 m/s.

40 seconds. Calculate the power input. (Take g = 10 m/s²)​

Answers

Answer:

Power_input = 85.71 [W]

Explanation:

To be able to solve this problem we must first find the work done. Work is defined as the product of force by distance.

[tex]W = F*d[/tex]

where:

W = work [J] (units of Joules)

F = force [N] (units of Newton)

d = distance [m]

We need to bear in mind that the force can be calculated by multiplying the mass by the gravity acceleration.

Now replacing:

[tex]W = (80*10)*3\\W = 2400 [J][/tex]

Power is defined as the work done over a certain time. In this way by means of the following formula, we can calculate the required power.

[tex]P=\frac{W}{t}[/tex]

where:

P = power [W] (units of watts)

W = work [J]

t = time = 40 [s]

[tex]P = 2400/40\\P = 60 [W][/tex]

The calculated power is the required power. Now as we have the efficiency of the machine, we can calculate the power that is introduced, to be able to do that work.

[tex]Effic=0.7\\Effic=P_{required}/P_{introduced}\\P_{introduced}=60/0.7\\P_{introduced}=85.71[W][/tex]

Number 1a and b and number 2(everything)

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The density of a substance is the ratio of its mass to its volume. Its unit of measurement is kg[tex]m^{-3}[/tex].

i.e density, ρ = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

1a. To determine the density of the acetic acid, Rachael needs to know the mass and volume of the acid.

i. Measure the mass of the given beaker using the mass balance.

ii. Transfer the acetic acid into the beaker, and measure the new mass using the mass balance.

iii. Subtract the mass of the beaker from the new mass to determine the mass of the acetic acid.

iv. Measure the volume of the acid on the scale of the beaker.

v. Divide the value of the mass by its volume to determine its density of the acetic acid.

b. Given that the density is 1.05 g/[tex]cm^{3}[/tex], and volume is 200 [tex]cm^{3}[/tex].

Then,

density = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

1.05 = [tex]\frac{mass}{200}[/tex]

mass = 1.05 x 200

         = 210 g

mass = 210 g

2. Length of titanium = 0.40 m

   Area of titanium = 0.05 [tex]m^{2}[/tex]

mass = 90.0 kg

density = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

But,

volume = area x length

            = 0.05 x 0.4

           = 0.02 [tex]m^{3}[/tex]

density of titanium = [tex]\frac{90}{0.02}[/tex]

                = 4500 kg[tex]m^{-3}[/tex]



identical spheres are dropped from a height of 100 m above the surfaces of Planet X and Planet Y. The speed of the spheres as a function of time is recorded for each planet in the graph
above. Which planet exerts the greater force of gravity on the sphere, and what evidence supports this conclusion?
A Planet X because its line has the greater area under it.
Planet X, because its line has the greater slope
Planet Y. because it falls for the smaller amount of time
Planet Y because the object's final speed is greater

Answers

Answer:

B. Planet X, because its line has the greater slope.

Explanation:

In a speed graph, acceleration is slope. A greater slope means a greater acceleration. According to Newton's 2nd law (F=mg), a greater acceleration means a greater force.

Planet X exerts the greater force of gravity on the sphere, because its line has the greater slope. Hence option B is correct.

What is Gravitational Force ?

Gravitational force is force of attraction between two masses. Gravitational force(F) between two bodies is directly proportion to the product of masses(m₁,m₂) of two bodies and inversely proportional to square of distance(r) between them. mathematically it is written as,

F ∝ m₁.m₂

F ∝ 1/r²

F = G m₁,m₂÷r²

where G is gravitational constant, whose value is 6.6743 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg-1s⁻².

Force is expressed in Newton N in SI unit. its dimensions are [M¹L¹T⁻²].

This is analogous with coulomb's law which gives force between two charges.

if a planet has greater gravitational force(force of gravity), then body falls with greater speed as compare to other planet which is having less force of gravity. we can see in case of planet X there is greater speed as compare to plane Y in short time. Hence option B is correct.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using the kinematic equation for uniformly accelerated motion:

[tex]x_f-x_i=v_0*t\,+\,\frac{1}{2} a\,*\,t^2[/tex]

which replacing the values given for our case becomes:

[tex]375=0*t\,+\,\frac{1}{2} (1.5)\,t^2\\375=\frac{1}{2} (1.5)\,t^2[/tex]

and which solving for t gives:

[tex]375=\frac{1}{2} (1.5)\,t^2\\t^2=2*375/1.5\\t^2=500\\t=\sqrt{500} \\t \approx 22.36\,\,sec[/tex]

A ball weighing 60 N is swinging like a pendulum at the end of a 6.0 m rope. As the ball swings through its lowest point, its speed is measured at 5.0 m/s. What is the tension in the rope at this point?
A. 58.6 N
B. 85.4 N
C. 90.2 N
D. 97.3 N

Answers

Answer:

85.4 N

Explanation:

Weight of the ball, W = 60 N

W = mg, m is mass

m = W/g

m = 60/9.8 = 6.12 kg

Length of a rope, r = 6 m

Speed, v = 5 m/s

We need to find the tension in the rope at this point. Tension is equal to the centripetal force It is given by :

[tex]F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}+mg\\\\F=\dfrac{6.12\times (5)^2}{6}+60\\\\=85.5\ N[/tex]

So, the correct option is (b) " 85.4 N".

g During the contraction of the heart, 65 cm3 blood is ejected from the left ventricle into the aorta with a velocity of approximately 98 cm/s. The blood volume traverses the aortic arch, exiting with the same speed but opposite direction. Assume the mass density of the blood is 1060 kg/m3 blood, the aortic arch remains stationary, and that the heart rate is 61 bpm. What is the average force exerted by the blood on the wall of the aorta.

Answers

Answer:

The force is [tex]F = 0.1441 \ N[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The volume of blood ejected is  [tex]V_b = 65cm^3 = 65*10^{-6} \ m^3[/tex]

    The velocity of the ejected blood is  [tex]v = 98 cm/ s = 0.98 \ m/s[/tex]

    The mass density of blood is  [tex]\rho = 1060 \ kg/m^3[/tex]

    The heart rate is  [tex]R = 61 bpm(beats \ per \ miunite) = \frac{61}{60} = 1.0667\ bps[/tex]

Generally the average force exerted is mathematically represented as

     [tex]F = 2 * \rho * V_b * R * v[/tex]

=>   [tex]F = 2 * 1060 * (65*10^{-6}) *1.0667 * 0.98[/tex]

=>   [tex]F = 0.1441 \ N[/tex]

Consider a star that is a sphere with a radius of 6.32 108 m and an average surface temperature of 5350 K. Determine the amount by which the star's thermal radiation increases the entropy of the entire universe each second. Assume that the star is a perfect blackbody, and that the average temperature of the rest of the universe is 2.73 K. Do not consider the thermal radiation absorbed by the star from the rest of the universe. J/K

Answers

Answer:

The value is  [tex]\Delta s = 8.537 *10^{25 } \ J/K[/tex]

Explanation:

From the we are told that

   The radius of the sphere is [tex]r = 6.32 *10^{8} \ m[/tex]

   The temperature is [tex]T_x = 5350 \ K[/tex]

    The average temperature of the rest of the universe is  [tex]T_r = 2.73 \ K[/tex]

Generally the change in entropy of the entire universe per second is mathematically represented as

         [tex]\Delta s = s_r - s_x[/tex]

Here [tex]s_r[/tex] is the entropy of the rest of the universe which is mathematically represented as

          [tex]s_r = \frac{Q}{T_r}[/tex]

Here Q is the quantity of heat radiated by the star which is mathematically represented as

           [tex]Q = 4 \pi * r^2 * \sigma * T^4_x[/tex]

Here [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant with value  

           [tex]\sigma = 5.67 * 10^{-8 }W\cdot m^{-2} \cdot K^{-4}.[/tex]

=>         [tex]Q = 4 \pi * (6.32*10^{8})^2 * 5.67 * 10^{-8 } * 5350 ^4[/tex]

=>         [tex]Q = 2.332 *10^{26} \ J[/tex]

So

      [tex]s_r = \frac{2.332 *10^{26}}{2.73}[/tex]

=>   [tex]s_r = 8.5415 *10^{25}\ J/K[/tex]

Here [tex]s_x[/tex] is the entropy of the rest of the universe which is mathematically represented as

      [tex]s_x = \frac{Q}{T_x}[/tex]

=>   [tex]s_x = \frac{2.332 *10^{26} }{5350}[/tex]

=>   [tex]s_x = 4.359 *10^{22} \ J/K[/tex]

So

      [tex]\Delta s = 8.5415 *10^{25} - 4.359 *10^{22}[/tex]

=>   [tex]\Delta s = 8.537 *10^{25 } \ J/K[/tex]

This question involves the concepts of entropy and the thermal radiation

The entropy of the entire universe is increased by "8.41 x 10²⁵ J/k

".

The increase in entropy is given as follows:

[tex]\Delta s = s-s_T[/tex]

where,

Δs = increase in entropy = ?

σ = Stefan-Boltzman's constant = 5.67 x 10⁻⁸ W/m².k⁴

A = surface area = 4πr² = 4π(6.32 x 10⁸ m)² = 5.01 x 10¹⁸ m²

Tr = Absolute temperature of the star = 5350 K

T = absolute temperature of the rest of the universe = 2.73 k

Q = thermal radiation energy

Q = [tex]\sigma A T_r^4=(5.67\ x\ ^{-8}\ W/m^2.k^4)(5.01\ x\ ^{18}\ m^2)(5350\ k)^4=2.3\ x\ 10^{26}\ J[/tex]

s = entropy of the universe = [tex]\frac{Q}{T}=\frac{2.3\ x\ 10^{26}\ J}{2.73 k}=8.42\ x\ 10^{25}\ J/k[/tex]

[tex]s_T[/tex] = entropy of the star = [tex]\frac{Q}{T_r}=\frac{2.3\ x\ 10^{26}\ J}{5350\ k}=4.3\ x\ 10^{22}\ J/k[/tex]

Therefore,

Δs = 8.42 x 10²⁵ J/k - 4.3 x 10²² J/k

Δs = 8.41 x 10²⁵ J/k

A fruit bat falls from the roof of a cave. We know that her potential energy was
600 J, and that the roof of the cave was 12.8 meters high. What is her velocity
when she hits the ground?​

Answers

Answer:

v = 15.65 m/s

Explanation:

We use conservation of mechanical energy between initial (i) and final (f) states:

Pi + KEi = Pf + KEf

At the top of the cave at the instant the bat starts to fall, there is only potential energy since the bat's velocity is zero.

Pi = m g h = 600 J

and the KEi = 0 J (no velocity)

Knowing the height of the cave's roof (12.8 m) , we can find the mass of the bat:

m = 600 J / (g 12.5) = 4.9 kg

Using conservation of mechanical energy, the final state is:

Pf + KEf = 600 J

with Pf = 0 (just touching the ground)

KEf= 1/2  4.9 (v^2)

and we solve for the velocity:

600 J = 0 + 1/2  4.9 (v^2)

v^2 = 600 * 2 / 4.9 = 244.9

v = 15.65 m/s

As a block of mass 42 kilograms drops from the edge of a 40-meter-high cliff it experiences a loss of energy due to air resistance of 81 J. At what speed will the rock hit the ground?

Answers

Answer:

The block hits the ground at 27.9 m/s

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE)

It's the energy stored in an object because of its height in a gravitational field.

It can be calculated with the equation:

U=m.g.h

Where m is the mass of the object, h is the height with respect to a fixed reference, and g is the acceleration of gravity or [tex]9.8 m/s^2[/tex].

When the block is at the edge of the cliff it has potential energy that can be transformed into any other type of energy as it starts falling to the ground.

The GPE of the block of mass m=42 Kg at h=40 m is:

U = 42*9.8*40

U = 16,464 J

The block loses 81 J due to air resistance, thus the energy stored when it hits the ground is 16,464 J - 81 J = 16,383 J.

This energy is stored as kinetic energy, whose formula is:

[tex]\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

Solving for v:

[tex]\displaystyle v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle v=\sqrt{\frac{2*16,383 }{42}}[/tex]

[tex]v=\sqrt{780.143}[/tex]

v = 27.9 m/s

The block hits the ground at 27.9 m/s

He stood for a moment, his lean, drawn face haggard in the light of the two hurtling moons. He looked hopelessly across the dark spaceport. It was a large one, for this ancient town of Syrtis was the main port of Mars. The forked light of the flying moons showed many ships docked on the tarmaca big liner, several freighters, a small, shining cruiser and other small craft. And for lack of one of those ships, his hopes were ruined! A squat, brawny figure in shapeless space-jacket came to Kenniston's side. It was Holk Or, the Jovian who had been waiting for him. "What luck?" asked the Jovian in a rumbling whisper. "It's hopeless," Kenniston answered heavily. "There isn't a small cruiser to be had at any price. The meteor-miners buy up all small ships here." "The devil!" muttered Holk Or, dismayed. "What are we going to do? Go on to Earth and get a cruiser there?" "We can't do that," Kenniston answered. "You know we've got to get back to that asteroid within two weeks. We've got to get a ship here." Desperation made Kenniston's voice taut. His lean, hard face was bleak with knowledge of disastrous failure. The big Jovian scratched his head. In the shifting moonlight his battered green face expressed ignorant perplexity as he stared across the busy spaceport. "That shiny little cruiser there would be just the thing," Holk Or muttered, looking at the gleaming, torpedo-shaped craft nearby. "It would hold all the stuff we've got to take; and with robot controls we two could run it." "We haven't a chance to get that craft," Kenniston told him. "I found out that it's under charter to a bunch of rich Earth youngsters who came out here in it for a pleasure cruise. A girl named Loring, heiress to Loring Radium, is the head of the party." The Jovian swore. "Just the ship we need, and a lot of spoiled kids are using it for thrill-hunting!" Kenniston had an idea. "It might be," he said slowly, "that they're tired of the cruise by this time and would sell us the craft. I think I'll go up to the Terra Hotel and see this Loring girl." "Sure, let's try it anyway," Holk Or agreed. With the Jovian clumping along beside him, Kenniston made his way from the spaceport across the ancient Martian city.
