The speed of sound in seawater is 1470 m/s. A dolphin sends out a click that reflects off of an

Answer: 0.204 s

Explanation:

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

V=\frac{d}{t}  

Where:  

V=1470 m/s is the speed of sound  in seawater

t is the time the sound wave travels from the dolphin and then returns after the reflection

d=2(150 m) is twice the distance between the dolphin and the object to which the sound waves are reflected

Finding t:

t=\frac{d}{V}  

t=\frac{2(150 m)}{1470 m/s}

<u>Finally:</u>

t=0.204 s

A person is nearsighted with a far point of 75.0 cm. a. What focal length contact lens is needed to give him normal vision

Complete Question

The  complete question is  shown on the first uploaded image  

Answer:

a

  f=  -75 \ cm =  - 0.75 \ m

b

  P  =  -1.33 \ diopters

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  image distance is  d_i =  -75 cm

The value of the image is negative because it is on the same side with the corrective glasses

    The  object distance is  d_o =  \infty

The  reason object distance  is because the object father than it being picture by the eye

General focal length is mathematically represented as

              \frac{1}{f}  =  \frac{1}{d_i}  -   \frac{1}{d_o}

substituting values

             \frac{1}{f}  =  \frac{1}{-75}  -   \frac{1}{\infty}

=>         f=  -75 \ cm =  - 0.75 \ m

Generally the power of the corrective lens is  mathematically represented as

        P  =  \frac{1}{f}

substituting values

       P  =  \frac{1}{-0.75}

        P  =  -1.33 \ diopters

charge, q1 =5.00μC, is at the origin, a second charge, q2= -3μC, is on the x-axis 0.800m from the origin. find the electric fiel
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electric field due to charge at origin

= k Q / r²

k is a constant , Q is charge and r is distance

= 9 x 10⁹ x 5 x 10⁻⁶ / .5²

= 180 x 10³ N /C

In vector form

E₁ = 180 x 10³ j

Electric field due to q₂ charge

= 9 x 10⁹ x 3 x 10⁻⁶ /.5² + .8²

= 30.33 x 10³ N / C

It will have negative slope θ with x axis

Tan θ = .5 / √.5² + .8²

= .5 / .94

θ = 28°

E₂ = 30.33 x 10³ cos 28 i - 30.33 x 10³ sin28j

= 26.78 x 10³ i - 14.24 x 10³ j

Total electric field

E = E₁  + E₂

= 180 x 10³ j +26.78 x 10³ i - 14.24 x 10³ j

= 26.78 x 10³ i + 165.76 X 10³ j

magnitude

= √(26.78² + 165.76² ) x 10³ N /C

= 167.8 x 10³  N / C .

A particularly scary roller coaster contains a loop-the-loop in which the car and rider are completely upside down. If the radiu
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

v = 10.89\ m/s

Explanation:

given,                          

radius of loop = 12.1 m                              

to find the minimum speed transverse by the rider to not to fall out upside down                                                                

centripetal force = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

gravitational force  = m g

computing both the equation]

mg = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v = \sqrt{rg}

v = \sqrt{12.1 \times 9.8}

v = \sqrt{118.58}

v = 10.89\ m/s

Assuming the starting height is 0.0 m, calculate the potential energy of the cart after it has been elevated to a height of 0.5
Bogdan [553]
The potential energy is most often referred to as the "energy at rest" and is dependent on the elevation of an object. This can be calculated through the equation,

     E = mgh

where E is the potential energy, m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height. In this item, we are not given with the mass of the cart so we assume it to be m. The force is therefore,

   E = m(9.8 m/s²)(0.5 m) = 4.9m

Hence, the potential energy is equal to 4.9m.
