Given the following in the problem:
Distances : 2.0 m and 4.0 m
Sound waves : 1700 hz
Speed of sound : 340 m/s
Get the wavelength of the sound by using the formula:
Lambda = speed of sound/sound waves
Lambda = 340 m/s / 1700 hz
Lambda = 0.2
Get the path length difference to the point from the two speakers
L1 = 4mL2 = sqrt (42+ 22) m
Delta = 4.47
x = delta / lambda
If the outcome is nearly an integer, the waves strengthen at the point. If it is nearly an integer +0.5 the waves interfere destructively at the point. If it is neither the point is somewhat in in the middle.
Solving x = (4.47 – 4) / (0.2) = 2.35 an integer +0.5 so it’s a point of destructive interference.
Answer:
So far it seems that hectogram us the largest unit.
Dekagram is a metric unit of mass or weight, equal to 10 grams.
Hectogram is a metric unit of mass equal to 100 grams.
Decigram is a metric unit of mass and weight equal to ¹/₁₀ gram.
Microgram is a metric unit of mass equal to one millionth of a gram.
Planes don’t have mirrors
There are longitudinal and transverse. Both types of mechanical waves require a medium, transport energy, and have defined wavelengths, frequencies, and speeds.
Differences are that transverse waves oscillate along a direction perpendicular to the direction of travel (like shaking a rope up and down). Longitudinal waves like oscillations along a spring and sound waves, oscillate back and forth along the direction of travel.
