Bats use a process called echolocation to find their food. This involves giving out sound waves that hit possible prey or food.

When the waves hit an object, they bounce back to the bat, allowing the bat to locate its prey. What type of wave interaction is echolocation?

The type of waves used by bats are sound waves. Most of the species use their larynx to produce ultrasound waves in the frequency range of 20 to 200 kilohertz.
These sound waves are echoed, reflected, by surroundings, in this case food or prey. These reflections are received by the specialized receptor cells in the ears of bats. The reflections are analyzed by the brain to make an image.
Fun fact: The brain cells of bats are also specialized to better analyze the frequency of ultrasound used by the bat.

In the ENGR 10 lab (E391), there are 50 long light bulbs (P=100 W) and 30 regular bulbs (P=60 W). How much energy is consumed li
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Total energy saving will be 0.8 KWH

Explanation:

We have given there are 50 long light bulbs of power 100 W so total power of 50 bulb = 100×50 = 5000 W = 5 KW

30 bulbs are of power 60 W

So total power of 30 bulbs = 30×60 = 1800 W = 1.8 KW

Total power of 80 bulbs = 1.8+5 = 6.8 KW

Total time = 3 hour

We know that energy E=power\times time=6.8\times 3=20.4KWH

Now power of each CFL bulb = 25 W

So power of 80 bulbs = 80×25 = 2000 W = 2 KW

Energy of 80 bulbs = 2×3 = 6 KWH

So total energy saving = 6.8-6 = 0.8 KWH

A rectangular loop of wire of width 10 cm and length 20 cm has a current of 2.5 A flowing through it. Two sides of the loop are
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

(a) 0.05 Am^2

(b) 1.85 x 10^-3 Nm

Explanation:

width, w = 10 cm = 0.1 m

length, l = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Current, i = 2.5 A

Magnetic field, B = 0.037 T

(A) Magnetic moment, M = i x A

Where, A be the area of loop

M = 2.5 x 0.1 x 0.2 = 0.05 Am^2

(B) Torque, τ = M x B x Sin 90

τ = 0.05 x 0.037 x 1

τ = 1.85 x 10^-3 Nm

A 25.0 g marble sliding to the right at 20.0 cm/s overtakes and collides elastically with a 10.0 g marble moving in the same dir
ikadub [295]
In collision that are categorized as elastic, the total kinetic energy of the system is preserved such that,

   KE1  = KE2

The kinetic energy of the system before the collision is solved below.

  KE1 = (0.5)(25)(20)² + (0.5)(10g)(15)²
  KE1 = 6125 g cm²/s²

This value should also be equal to KE2, which can be calculated using the conditions after the collision.

KE2 = 6125 g cm²/s² = (0.5)(10)(22.1)² + (0.5)(25)(x²)

The value of x from the equation is 17.16 cm/s.

Hence, the answer is 17.16 cm/s.

Consider a spring that does not obey Hooke’s law very faithfully. One end of the spring is fixed. To keep the spring stretched o
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

a) W=-0.0103125\ J

b) W=0.0059375\ J

c) Compressing is easier

Explanation:

Given:

Expression of force:

F=kx-bx^2+cx^3

where:

k=100\ N.m^{-1}

b=700\ N.m^{-2}

c=12000\ N.m^{-3}

x when the spring is stretched

x when the spring is compressed

hence,

F=100x-700x^2+12000x^3

a)

From the work energy equivalence the work done is equal to the spring potential energy:

here the spring is stretched so, x=-0.05\ m

Now,

The spring constant at this instant:

j=\frac{F}{x}

j=\frac{100\times (-0.05)-700\times (-0.05)^2+12000\times (-0.05)^3}{-0.05}

j=-8.25\ N.m^{-1}

Now work done:

W=\frac{1}{2} j.x^2

W=0.5\times -8.25\times (-0.05)^2

W=-0.0103125\ J

b)

When compressing the spring by 0.05 m

we have, x=0.05\ m

<u>The spring constant at this instant:</u>

j=\frac{F}{x}

j=\frac{100\times (0.05)-700\times (0.05)^2+12000\times (0.05)^3}{0.05}

j=4.75\ N.m^{-1}

Now work done:

W=\frac{1}{2} j.x^2

W=0.5\times 4.75\times (0.05)^2

W=0.0059375\ J

c)

Since the work done in case of stretching the spring is greater in magnitude than the work done in compressing the spring through the same deflection. So, the compression of the spring is easier than its stretching.
