The accepted value for the speed of sound is around 340 m/s. What are some reasons your value may be a little different from the

accepted value
Physics
1 answer:
Anettt [7]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The speed of sound depends on the medium thru which it travels in contrast to light (electromagnetic) which can travel thru a vacuum.

The speed of sound will depend on the density of the air thru which it travels - the density  of air is particularly affected by

humidity - water vapor in the air contributes to less density

temperature - warmer is less dense

motion of air - if the air is not motionless the speed will be affected

A third point charge q3 is now positioned halfway between q1 and q2. The net force on q2 now has a magnitude of F2,net = 14.413
natima [27]

Answer:

The value of  charge q₃ is 40.46 μC.

Explanation:

Given that.

Magnitude of net force F=14.413\ N

Suppose a point charge q₁ = -3 μC is located at the origin of a co-ordinate system. Another point charge q₂ = 7.7 μC is located along the x-axis at a distance x₂ = 8.2 cm from q₁. Charge q₂ is displaced a distance y₂ = 3.1 cm in the positive y-direction.

We need to calculate the distance

Using Pythagorean theorem

r=\sqrt{x_{2}^2+y_{2}^2}

Put the value into the formula

r=\sqrt{(8.2\times10^{-2})^2+(3.1\times10^{-2})^2}

r=0.0876\ m

We need to calculate the magnitude of the charge q₃

Using formula of net force

F_{12}=kq_{2}(\dfrac{q_{3}}{r_{3}^2}+\dfrac{q_{1}}{r_{1}^2})

Put the value into the formula

14.413=9\times10^{9}\times7.7\times10^{-6}(\dfrac{q_{3}}{(0.0438)^2}+\dfrac{-3\times10^{-6}}{(0.0876)^2})

(\dfrac{q_{3}}{(4.38\times10^{-2})^2}+\dfrac{-3\times10^{-6}}{(0.0876)^2})=\dfrac{14.413}{9\times10^{9}\times7.7\times10^{-6}}

\dfrac{q_{3}}{(0.0438)^2}=207\times10^{-4}+3.909\times10^{-4}

q_{3}=0.0210909\times(0.0438)^2

q_{3}=40.46\times10^{-6}\ C

q_{3}=40.46\ \mu C

Hence, The value of  charge q₃ is 40.46 μC.

An object is dropped from rest from a 70.6 m tower. Air resistance is negligible. After 0.32 seconds, what is magnitude and dire
dem82 [27]

Answer:

<em>1,378.9ms²</em>

Explanation:

Given the following

Distance S = 70.6m

Time t = 0.32secs

Initial velocity = 0m/s

Required

Acceleration

Using the equation of motion

S = ut+1/2at²

Substitute

70.6 = 0+1/2a(0.32)²

70.6 = 0.0512a

a = 70.6/0.0512

a = 1,378.9

<em>Hence the acceleration is 1,378.9ms²</em>

Gravitational forces is ------ force​
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Gravitational force is <u>noncontact</u> force

Explanation:

Contact force occurs due to the contact between two different objects. Non-contact force occurs due to either attraction or repulsion between two objects such that there is no contact between these objects. There is no field linked with the contact force. ... Gravitational force is an example of a non-contact force.

How does energy move through the atmosphere hydrosphere and biosphere
Anna11 [10]
<span>When the Sun’s energy moves through space, it reaches Earth’s atmosphere and finally the surface.  This radiant solar energy warms the atmosphere and becomes heat energy. This heat energy is transferred throughout the planet’s systems in three ways: by radiation, conduction, and convection</span>

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a electrostatic force of 72.0 units. If the distance separating objects 1 and 2 is chang
qaws [65]

Answer:

288.0 units; that is the electrostatic force of attraction become quadruple of its initial value.

Explanation:

If all other parameters are constant,

Electrostatic Force of attraction ∝ (1/r²)

F = (k/r²) = 72.0

If r₁ = r/2, what happens to F₁

F₁ = (k/r₁²) = k/(r/2)² = (4k/r²) = 4F = 4 × 72 = 288.0 units
