Boats use echo sounders. Pulses of sound waves are reflected by the sea bed and
detected by a sensitive microphone. The time between an echo sounder sending and
receiving a pulse is 0.005 s. The device calculates the depth of the sea, using the speed
of sound in sea water, which is 1500 m/s.
Use this information to calculate the depth of the sea. Show your working.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: depth = 3.75 m

Explanation:

Taken the speed of the sound in sea to be V = 1500 m/s

The time between an echo sounder sending and receiving a pulse is 0.005 s. That is,

Total time T = 0.005

Formula for echo is:

V = 2X/T

Where X = distance covered

Substitute V and T into the formula

1500 = 2X/0.005

Cross multiply

7.5 = 2X

Make X the subject of formula

X = 7.5/2

X = 3.75 m

Therefore, the depth of the sea is 3.75 m

An object has a mass of 5.52 g and a volume of 12 mL. What is the density of the object

Answers

Answer:

0.46 g/mL

Explanation:

Density can be found using the following formula.

[tex]d=\frac{m}{v}[/tex]

where d is density, m is mass, and v is volume.

We know that the object has a mass of 5.52 grams and a volume of 12 milliliters.

m=5.52 g

v=12 mL

Substitute these values into the formula.

[tex]d=\frac{5.52 g}{12 mL}[/tex]

Divide 5.52 by 12

5.52/12=0.46

d=0.46 g/mL

The density of the object is 0.46 g/mL, and option C is correct.

A girl is out jogging at 2.00 m/s and accelerates at 1.50 m/s^2 until she reaches a velocity of 5.00 m/s. How far does she get?

Answers

Answer:

7.00 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 2.00 m/s

v = 5.00 m/s

a = 1.50 m/s²

Find: Δx

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(5.00 m/s)² = (2.00 m/s)² + 2(1.50 m/s²)Δx

Δx = 7.00 m

6. How is work related to kinetic energy?

Answers

Answer: Energy should be transferred to an object in order to move it. This amount of energy transferred by the force to move an object is called work or work done. Thus, the relation between Work and Energy is direct. That is, the difference in the Kinetic energy of an object is work done by an object. OR

The principle of work and kinetic energy (also known as the work-energy theorem) states that the work done by the sum of all forces acting on a particle equals the change in the kinetic energy of the particle. The kinetic energy of the block increases as a result by the amount of work.

If business owners want to increase demand for their goods and services, what is the best action for them to take?
increase their models
increase their projections
decrease their prices
decrease their quantities

Answers

Answer:

decrease their prices

Explanation:

If we see demand curve then we can observe that demand for good decreases when price increases and demand for good increases when price decreases.

We also know intuitively that customer are price sensitive. That is their buying behavior changes with price of goods, Consumers prefer lower priced good.

So, if business owners want to increase demand for their goods and services

they should decrease their prices.

Different types of waves travel at different speeds. For example, sound waves travel more slowly than light waves. Have you ever been in a big empty room, or in a cave, and heard an echo? Echos happen because sound waves take time to travel to the wall and bounce back to your ears. But light is different. Light is much faster than sound. Light is the fastest moving thing in the universe. Because light waves and sound waves travel at different speeds, you can figure out how far you are from a storm by watching for lightning and listening for thunder. Lightning and thunder are actually the same thing! Thunder is just the sound that lightning makes. Because light is so quick, you see the lightning flash first. The sound travels more slowly, so you hear the thunder after. Thunder and lightning represent two kinds of waves: sound and light.
How do lightning and thunder illustrate the relationship between light and sound waves?
A Light moves faster than sound, so you hear thunder after you see lightning.
B Sound moves faster than light, so you see lightning after you hear thunder.
C Lightning and thunder are the same, so light and sound waves move together at the same time.
D Sound moves light, so when you hear thunder you know lightning will move toward you.

Answers

Answer:

A). Light moves faster than sound, so you hear thunder after you see lightning.

Explanation:

The lightning and thunder demonstrate that 'light travels faster than sound' which clearly portrays the relationship between the light and the soundwaves. When we see lightning in the sky before hearing the sound of thunder as the speed of light much higher than the speed of sound. Sound travels ~ 343 m/s or 1235 km/hr while light travels 300000 km/s. This difference in speed prevents us from considering lightning and thunder as the same thing. The 'sound is a pressure wave and therefore, takes time to travel and bounce back to our ears.' Thus, we happen to witness lightning first. Hence, option A is the correct answer.

Question 5(Multiple Choice Worth 4 points) (01.04 MC) Which of the following correctly describes the relationship between speed and velocity? Speed is the change in velocity over time; velocity is distance plus direction. Speed is the change in distance over time; velocity is speed plus direction. Speed is distance plus direction; velocity is speed plus time. Speed is the change in acceleration; velocity is distance over time.

Answers

Answer:

Speed is the change in distance over time; velocity is speed plus direction

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the change in distance covered by a body with respect to time while velocity the change in displacement of a body with respect to time. Speed is a scalar quantity since it does not specifies direction while velocity is a vector quantity because it specifies both magnitude and direction.

Speed can only be equal to the velocity if it also specifies direction.

Based on the definition above, it can be concluded that speed is the change in distance over time and velocity is speed plus direction.

Answer:

Speed is the change in distance over time; velocity is speed plus direction.

Light ray A moves from air to water. Part of ray A is reflected at the air-water boundary. Which arrow in the image is the reflected ray?
E
OA. B
OB.
С
OC.
D
OD. E

Answers

Answer:

A. B

Explanation:

The image has been attached.

Reflected ray refers to the ray of light which is reflected back after striking a surface that is non-permeable.

The ray of light which is reflected before the ray touches the surface is said to the incident ray.

According to the given image, ray B is the reflected ray. Ray B is reflected in the air after the ray A strikes at the surface of the water.

B

Explanation:

Since mirrors reflect things, when you shine light at a mirror, it will bounce off of the mirror, or reflect, and shine the opposite direction of where the original light is pointed. The answer would be B because light doesn't go through the mirror, or run along it.

Think of when you through a basketball on the ground. If you bounce it at an angle, it won't just come back to you in the same angle. It will keep bouncing at the same angle you through it. This is pretty much what describes the relationship between ray A and ray B.

A negative slope on the velocity vs. time graph indicates that the object is not
accelerating
A. True
B. False

Answers

Answer: False, I think

Explanation:

Well it depends. Its hard to say without a function of the graph. Given a velocity graph, the first derivative is the acceleration.

Negative slope on a velocity graph means you are going in the negative direction. And over time, your velocity per unit of time is also decreasing. That means we are accelerating in the negative direction

False, your velocity would just be in the negative direction.

v₀ = 12.0 m/s

a = 9.8 m/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

v² = (12.0 m/s)² + 2 (10 m/s²) (10.0 m)

v = 18.5 m/s
