0.029 s

Explanation:

The speed of sound in aluminim is v = 5100 m/s.

The sound travels in aluminium by uniform motion (constant speed), so we can find the time it takes to cover a certain distance by using the equation:

where d is the distance covered, in this case d = 150 m. Substituting the numbers into the equation, we find

so easy. just google the electromagnetic waves and it’ll pop up.

myth. it was once thought that animals, including cats and dogs, could only see in black and white. however, scientists have proven this to be a myth. in all animals, including humans, the perception of colour is determined by the presence of cells in the eye called cone photoreceptors.
