During an ultrasound, sound waves are sent by a transducer through muscle tissue at a speed of 1300 m/s. Some of the sound waves are reflected from a metal fragment in the muscle and are detected by the transducer 1.5 x 10−4 seconds after they were first emitted. What is the depth of the metal fragment in the muscle tissue?

A1200 kg car traveling north at 10 m/s is rear-ended by a 2000 kg truck traveling at 30 m/s. what is the total momentum before and after the collision?

Laboratory experiments, observational field studies, and model-building are all examples of different forms of scientific investigations.  in what way do laboratory experiments primarily differ from other forms of scientific investigations?   a.  a laboratory experiment is the only accepted form of investigation within the scientific community.  b.  studies about how things behave in nature or studies involving very large objects are best answered through laboratory experiments.  c.  laboratory experiments involve the identification and control of variables.  d.  data can only be generated through laboratory experiments, not other forms of investigation.

With the simplified model of the eye, what corrective lens (specified by focal length as measured in air) would be needed to enable a person underwater to focus an infinitely distant object? (be careful-the focal length of a lens underwater is not the same as in air! assume that the corrective lens has a refractive index of 1.62 and that the lens is used in eyeglasses, not goggles, so there is water on both sides of the lens. assume that the eyeglasses are 1.90
