Two speakers, one directly behind the other, are each generating a 280-Hz sound wave. What is the smallest separation distance b

Annette [7]

Answer:

1.21m

Explanation:

If two speakers are generating a frequency of 280Hz, the smallest separation distance between the speakers that will produce destructive interference at a listener standing in front of them is also known as the wavelength of the sound wave generated.

Using the expression;

Velocity v = frequency f × wavelength ¶

Given frequency = 280Hz, speed of sound v = 338m/s

Substituting this data's in the expression given to get the wavelength will give;

¶ = v/f

¶ = 338/280

¶ = 1.21m

The smallest separation between the speakers that will produce the interference is 1.21m

Coherent light of wavelength 525 nm passes through two thin slits that are 4.15Ã—10^(âˆ’2) mm apart and then falls on a screen 7

IRINA_888 [86]

A) 4.7 cm

The formula for the angular spread of the nth-maximum from the central bright fringe for a diffraction from two slits is

$sin \theta=\frac{n \lambda}{d}$

where

n is the order of the maximum

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

$a$ is the distance between the slits

In this problem,

n = 5

$\lambda=525 nm =5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m$

$a=4.15\cdot 10^{-2} mm=4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m$

So we find

$\theta=sin^{-1} (\frac{(5)(5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m)}{4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m})=3.62^{\circ}$

And given the distance of the screen from the slits,

$D=75.0 cm = 0.75 m$

The distance of the 5th bright fringe from the central bright fringe will be given by

$y=D tan \theta = (0.75 m)tan 3.62^{\circ}=0.047 m = 4.7 cm$

B) 8.1 cm

The formula to find the nth-minimum (dark fringe) in a diffraction pattern from double slit is a bit differente from the previous one:

$sin \theta=\frac{(n+\frac{1}{2}) \lambda}{d}$

To find the angle corresponding to the 8th dark fringe, we substitute n=8:

$\theta=sin^{-1} (\frac{(8+\frac{1}{2})(5.25\cdot 10^{-7} m)}{4.15\cdot 10^{-5} m})=6.17^{\circ}$

And the distance of the 8th dark fringe from the central bright fringe will be given by

$y=D tan \theta = (0.75 m)tan 6.17^{\circ}=0.081 m = 8.1 cm$

A 4-kg toy car with a speed of 5 m/s collides head-on with a stationary 1-kg car. After the collision, the cars are locked toget

Kinetic energy lost in collision is 10 J.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given,

Mass, $m_{1}$ = 4 kg

Speed, $v_{1}$ = 5 m/s

$m_{2}$ = 1 kg

$v_{2}$ = 0

Speed after collision = 4 m/s

Kinetic energy lost, K×E = ?

During collision, momentum is conserved.

Before collision, the kinetic energy is

$\frac{1}{2} m1 (v1)^2 + \frac{1}{2} m2(v2)^2$

By plugging in the values we get,

$KE = \frac{1}{2} * 4 * (5)^2 + \frac{1}{2} * 1 * (0)^2\\\\KE = \frac{1}{2} * 4 * 25 + 0\\\\$

K×E = 50 J

Therefore, kinetic energy before collision is 50 J

Kinetic energy after collision:

$KE = \frac{1}{2} (4 + 1) * (4)^2 + KE(lost)$

$KE = 40J + KE(lost)$

Since,

Initial Kinetic energy = Final kinetic energy

50 J = 40 J + K×E(lost)

K×E(lost) = 50 J - 40 J

K×E(lost) = 10 J

Therefore, kinetic energy lost in collision is 10 J.
