If the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s, approximately how long will it take the sound of a clap of thunder to travel 2 kilometers?(1 point)

5.9 seconds

3.4 seconds

2.9 seconds

1.7 seconds

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:5.9 Seconds

Explanation: I just took the quiz

Answer 2

The sound of a clap of thunder take 5.9 seconds to travel 2 kilometers.

To determine the correct statement among all the options, we need to know about the relation between speed and time.

What is sound speed?The speed of sound is the distance travelled by sound per unit time Mathematically, it is v=distance/time= 340m/s.What's is the time taken by sound to travel 2 km?We found 340m/s=distance/time. So, time = distance/340= 2000m/340= 5.9 s.

Thus, we can conclude that the sound of a clap of thunder take 5.9 seconds to travel 2 kilometers.

How much energy would be needed for a 100kg body to escape from the earth?radius of earh=6400 km

Answers

Answer:

Energy = 6400000 Joules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 100kg

Radius of earth = 6400 km

To find the amount of energy required by the object to escape the velocity of the earth, we would apply the Law of Conservation of Energy.

This law states that energy cannot be destroyed but can only be converted or transformed from one form to another. Therefore, the sum of the initial kinetic energy and potential energy is equal to the sum of the final kinetic energy and potential energy.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Ki + Ui = Kf + Uf .......equation 1

Where;

Ki and Kf are the initial and final kinetic energy respectively.

Ui and Uf are the initial and final potential energy respectively.

At the earth surface, potential energy with respect to the radius of the earth is given by the formula;

[tex] Ui = - \frac {GM}{R} [/tex] ......equation 2.

Also, at the earth surface, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

[tex] K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}[/tex] .......equation 3.

After escaping the earth, the object wouldn't have both kinetic and potential energy; Kf = Uf = 0

Substituting eqn 2 & 3 into eqn 1, we have;

[tex] \frac{1}{2}MV^{2} - \frac {GM}{R} = 0 [/tex]

[tex] \frac{1}{2}MV^{2} = \frac {GM}{R} [/tex]

Making "V" the subject of formula;

[tex] RMV^{2} = 2GM [/tex]

[tex] V^{2} = \frac {2GM}{RM} [/tex]

[tex] V^{2} = \frac {2G}{R} [/tex]

Therefore, energy = gmR

Energy = 10 * 100 * 6400

Energy = 6400000 Joules

If energy is used at a rate of 20.0 J/s in an electric
circuit what is the power developed

Answers

Answer:

20watts

Explanation:

Formula for calculating power is expressed as;

Power = Work done/Time

Note that the unit of workdone is Joules

Unit of Time is seconds

Hence the unit of power is Joules/seconds or J/s

Hence if the rate at which energy is used up is 20.0J/s, the power will also be 20J/s or 20watts since they have the same unit.

Explain why gaps are left between railway lines​

Answers

Answer:

to prevent the derailing of the train due to thermal expansion.

Answer:

Iron are good conductors of heat and electricity. Being a good conductor it expands as well as contracts with the change of temperature.When heat is applied,they expands because molecules inside the element gets excited and number of molecules inside it increases in tremendous amount,so it leads to expansion of iron. So when the temperature is lowered it comes in its normal state.

The term for this is called as thermal expansion or contraction.The gap in the joint between 2 rails is to prevent from the expansion of the iron. It is necessary ,if not there will be change in structure,it may buckle and chance of derailed is increased.

Explanation:

The gap in the joint between to rails is to compensate for the expansion of the material of rail during summer.

The metals expand or contract with the changes in temperature. The expansion or contraction depends on the coefficient of thermal expansion of the material. Based on this property of the metal, the gap in the joint of two rails is provided.

A locomotive with a rocket engine is being tested on a smooth horizontal track. The mass of the

locomotive is unknown. Starting from rest, the engines are fired for 20 s. During this time

they expel 500 kg of oxidized kerosene. The kerosene particles are expelled at an average

velocity of 1200 m/s. At the end of the 20-s period the speed of the locomotive is 50 m/s.

What is its mass?

Answers

Answer:

The mass of the locomotive is 288,000 kg

Explanation:

The question relates to the law of conservation of energy

The given parameters are;

The form of engine on the locomotive = Rocket engine

The mass of the locomotive = m

The initial velocity of the locomotive, v = 0 m/s

The duration at which the engine is fired = 20 s

The mass of the kerosene expelled, m₁ = 500 kg

The average speed with which the kerosene is expelled, v₁ = 1,200 m/s

The final speed of the locomotive engine after 20-s, v₂ = 50 m/s

Kinetic energy, K.E. = 1/2·m·v²

The total kinetic energy of the kerosene particles, K.E.[tex]_k[/tex] = 1/2 × 500 × 1,200² = 360,000,000

∴ K.E.[tex]_k[/tex] = 360,000,000 J

By the conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the expelled kerosene particles is equal to the kinetic energy gained by the moving locomotive

Therefore, we have;

K.E.[tex]_L[/tex] = K.E.[tex]_k[/tex]

K.E.[tex]_L[/tex] = 1/2 × m × v₂² = 1/2 × m × 50²

∴ K.E.[tex]_L[/tex] = 1/2 × m × 50² = K.E.[tex]_k[/tex] = 360,000,000 J

1/2 × m × 50² = 360,000,000 J

m = 360,000,000 J/(1/2 × (50 m/s)²) = 288,000 kg

m = 288,000 kg

The mass of the locomotive, m = 288,000 kg

What is the velocity of a cup dropped from a building if it takes 8.8 seconds for the cup to hit the ground? (Gravity = -9.8 m/s2).

Answers

Answer: vf= 86.24

Explanation:

Basic physics kinematic problem right. So we assume if this is freefall the object or cup in this case is falling with an initial speed of zero and then starts to accelerate due to the force of gravity. First lets see what equations we should use:

Imma use

d=vi+vf/2*t

d=vi*t+ 1/2*a*t^2

First I will solve for distance just to make it easier for me to use the equations.

d= 0(initial speed)*8.8s+1/2*(9.8m/s^2)(8.8)^2 or just d=1/2*(9.8m/s^2)(8.8)^2

d= 379.456

Alright lets use this info in the next equation

379.456= 0 + vf / 2 *8.8 or  379.456= vf/2 *8.8= vf= 86.24m/s
