Two sound waves (speed 343 m/s) have different wavelengths. The first has a wavelength of 5.72 m, and the second a wavelength of

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The beat frequency is 30 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

velocity of the two sound waves, v = 343 m/s

wavelength of the first wave, λ₁ = 5.72 m

wavelength of the second wave, λ₂ = 11.44 m

The frequency of the first wave is calculated as follows;

F₁ = v/λ₁

F₁ = 343 / 5.72

F₁ = 59.97 HZ

The frequency of the second wave is calculated as follows;

F₂ = v/λ₂

F₂ = 343 / 11.44

F₂ = 29.98 Hz

The beat frequency is calculated as;

Fb = F₁ - F₂

Fb = 59.97 HZ - 29.98 Hz

Fb = 30 Hz

The Millersburg Ferry (m = 13000.0 kg loaded) is travelling at 11 m/s when the engines are put in reverse. The engineproduces a

Pie

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Millersburg Ferry, m = 13000 kg

Velocity, v = 11 m/s

Applied force, F = 10⁶ N

Time period, t = 20 seconds

(a) Impulse is given by the product of force and time taken i.e.

$J=F.\Delta t$

$J=10^6\ N\times 20\ s$

$J=2\times 10^7\ N-s$

(b) Impulse is also given by the change in momentum i.e.

$J=\Delta p=p_f-p_i$

$J=p_f-p_i$

$p_f=J+p_i$

$p_f=2\times 10^7\ N-s+13000\ kg\times 11\ m/s$

$p_f=20143000\ kg-m/s$

(c) For new velocity,

$v_f=\dfrac{p_f}{m}$

$v_f=\dfrac{20143000\ kg-m/s}{13000\ kg}$

$v_f=1549.46\ m/s$

Hence, this is the required solution.
