Firecrackers A and B are 600 m apart. You are standing exactly halfway between them. Your lab partner is 300 m on the other side of firecracker A. You see two flashes of light, from the two explosions, at exactly the same instant of time. Define event 1 to be firecracker A explodes and event 2 to be firecracker B explodes. According to your lab partner, based on measurements he or she makes, does event 1 occur before, after, or at the same time as event 2? Explain

Explanation:

A and B are 600 m apart . firecrackers explodes and make two waves , sound waves and light waves . they spread  out on all sides . The person sitting in the middle , observes two lights simultaneously and after some time hears two sound simultaneously . It is so because waves coming from A and B covers equal distance to reach the middle point . Same will be the case for sound waves .

But for observer sitting on the other side of A , both light and sound wave will not reach simultaneously . Light wave coming from A will reach earlier because distance covered by light will be less . Similarly sound coming from A will reach earlier . So he / she will observe cracker at A to have exploded earlier than that at B .

the answer is b

explanation:

energy stored in the capacitor= 9.72 x 10⁻⁴ j

explanation:

the energy stored in the capacitor is given by

e= 1/2 c v²

e= energy stored

c= capacitance= 1.5 µc= 1.5 x 10⁻⁶f

v= potential difference=36 v

so energy stored= e= 1/2 (1.5 x 10⁻⁶) (36)²

energy stored= 9.72 x 10⁻⁴j
