Sound travels at a rate of 340 m/s in all directions through air. Matt rings a very loud bell at one location, and Steve hears i

t some time later at his location 450 meters to the south. How long did it take the sound to travel from the bell to Steve's location?

Answer:

110 m/s

Explanation:

because if you subtract 450 from 340 you get 110

An 80kg parachutist jumps out of an airplane. Neglecting air friction, how fast will he be going after a 10 second free fall?

If he is jumping you are adding force which means that you will be falling twice as fast

Answer:

$T_{2}=278.80 K$

Explanation:

Let's use the equation that relate the temperatures and volumes of an adiabatic process in a ideal gas.

$(\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}})^{\gamma -1} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$ .

Now, let's use the ideal gas equation to the initial and the final state:

$\frac{p_{1} V_{1}}{T_{1}} = \frac{p_{2} V_{2}}{T_{2}}$

Let's recall that the term nR is a constant. That is why we can match these equations.

We can find a relation between the volumes of the initial and the final state.

$\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}}=\frac{T_{1}p_{2}}{T_{2}p_{1}}$

Combining this equation with the first equation we have:

$(\frac{T_{1}p_{2}}{T_{2}p_{1}})^{\gamma -1} = \frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}$

$(\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}})^{\gamma -1} = \frac{T_{2}^{\gamma}}{T_{1}^{\gamma}}$

Now, we just need to solve this equation for T₂.

$T_{1}\cdot (\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}})^{\frac{\gamma - 1}{\gamma}} = T_{2}$

Let's assume the initial temperature and pressure as 25 °C = 298 K and 1 atm = 1.01 * 10⁵ Pa, in a normal conditions.

Here,

$p_{2}=8.00\cdot 10^{4} Pa \\p_{1}=1.01\cdot 10^{5} Pa\\ T_{1}=298 K\\ \gamma=1.40$

Finally, T2 will be:

$T_{2}=278.80 K$

What is the role of equations in this course?

Karolina [17]

That will depend on which course you're talking about. It will be a minor role in, say, Maritime Law or Comparitive Religion, but a major one in, say, Particle Physics or Linear Algebra.
