Two loudspeakers, A and B, are driven by the same amplifier and emit sinusoidal waves in phase. The frequency of the waves emitt

ed by each speaker is 172 Hz. You are 8.00 m from the speaker.
Take the speed of sound in air to be 344 m/s. What is the closest you can be to speaker B and be at a point of destructive interference?

Answer:

The distance of the speaker B would be 1 meters.

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of the waves emitted, f = 172 Hz

You are 8.00 m from the speaker.

The speed of sound in air to be 344 m/s.

The wavelength of the wave is given in terms of frequency and the speed of sound. It is given by :

$v=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{344\ m/s}{172\ Hz}\\\\\lambda=2\ m$

Since, the distance from the Speaker A is 8 m which is the integral multiple of the wavelength. Let the closest distance of the speaker B would be given by :

$d=\dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\d=\dfrac{2}{2}\\\\d=1\ m$

So, the distance of the speaker B would be 1 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

$I=8.8209\ kg.m^2$

$\alpha=0.6348\ rad.s^{-2}$

Explanation:

Given:

width of door, $w=0.99\ m$

height of the door, $h=2.2\ m$

thickness of the door, $t=4.2\ cm$

mass of the door, $m=27\ kg$

torque on the door, $\tau=5.6\ N.m$

<em>∵Since the thickness of the door is very less as compared to its other dimensions, therefore we treat it as a rectangular sheet.</em>

For a rectangular sheet we have the mass moment of inertia inertia as:

$I=\frac{1}{3} m.w^2$

$I=\frac{1}{3}\times 27\times 0.99^2$

$I=8.8209\ kg.m^2$

We have a relation between mass moment of inertia, torque and angular acceleration as:

$\alpha=\frac{\tau}{I}$

$\alpha=\frac{5.6}{8.8209}$

$\alpha=0.6348\ rad.s^{-2}$

Lorenzo is making a prediction. “I learned that nonmetals increase in reactivity when moving from left to right. So I predict th

nadezda [96]

That prediction is not correct because Xenon is extremely stable; column 18 of the periodic table contains the noble gasses, which are stable because their outer-most energy levels are completely filled. Having the octet (8) of valence electrons means that the element no longer needs to lose or gain electrons to gain stability.

The column 17 elements are unstable because they only have one valence electron short of the stable octet configuration of the noble gasses.

A sample of a gas has a volume of 639 cm3 when the pressure is 75.9 kPa. What is the volume of the gas when the pressure is incr

const2013 [10]

Answer:

$388 cm^3$

Explanation:

For this problem, we can use Boyle's law, which states that for a gas at constant temperature, the product between pressure and volume remains constant:

$pV=const.$

which can also be rewritten as

$p_1 V_1 = p_2 V_2$

In our case, we have:

$p_1 = 75.9 kPa$ is the initial pressure

$V_1 = 639 cm^3$ is the initial volume

$p_2 = 125 kPa$ is the final pressure

Solving for V2, we find the final volume:

$v_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1}{p_2}=\frac{(75.9)(639)}{125}=388 cm^3$

A table tennis ball with a mass of 0.003 kg and a soccer ball with a mass of 0.43 kg or both Serta name motion at 16 M/S calcula

poizon [28]

Let us first know the given: Tennis ball has a mass of 0.003 kg, Soccer ball has a mass of 0.43 kg. Having the same velocity at 16 m/s. First the equation for momentum is P=MV P=Momentum M=Mass V=Velocity. Now let us have the solution for the momentum of tennis ball. Pt=0.003 x 16 m/s= ( kg-m/s ) I use the subscript "t" for tennis. Momentum of Soccer ball Ps= 0.43 x 13m/s = ( km-m/s). If we going to compare the momentum of both balls, the heavier object will surely have a greater momentum because it has a larger mass, unless otherwise the tennis ball with a lesser mass will have a greater velocity to be equal or greater than the momentum of a soccer ball.

A violin with string length 32 cm and string density 1.5 g/cm resonates in its fundamental with the first overtone of a 2.0-m or

love history [14]

Answer:

T=1022.42 N

Explanation:

Given that

l = 32 cm ,μ = 1.5 g/cm

L =2 m ,V= 344 m/s

The pipe is closed so n= 3 ,for first over tone

$f=\dfrac{nV}{4L}$

$f=\dfrac{3\times 344}{4\times 2}$

f= 129 Hz

The tension in the string given as

T = f²(4l²) μ

Now by putting the values

T = f²(4l²) μ

T = 129² x (4 x 0.32²) x 1.5 x 10⁻³ x 100

T=1022.42 N
