sound is a longitudinal wave, and its speed depends on the medium through which it propagates. in air, sound travels at 343 m/s

. in an experiment, you observe a sound with a frequency of 600 hz and a wavelength of 6.5 m . what is the speed of sound in this different medium?

The speed of the sound wave in the medium, given the data is 3900 m

<h3>Velocity of a wave </h3>

The velocity of a wave is related to its frequency and wavelength according to the following equation:

Velocity (v) = wavelength (λ) × frequency (f)

v = λf

With the above formula, we can obtain the speed of the sound wave. Details below:

<h3>How to determine speed of the sound wave</h3>

The speed of the wave can be obtained as illustrated below:

  • Frequency (f) = 600 Hz
  • Wavelength (λ) = 6.5 m
  • Velocity (v) =?

v = λf

v = 6.5 × 600

v = 3900 m

Thus, the speed of the sound wave in the medium is 3900 m

A 59kg child starting from rest slides down a water slide with a vertical height of 5.0m. what is the child's speed halfway down
KIM [24]
<span>EP (potential energy) = mgy -> (59)(9.8)(-5) = -2,891
   EP + EK (kinetic energy) = 0; but rearranging it for EK makes it EK = -EP, such that EK = 2891 when plugged in.
   EK = 0.5mv^2, but can also be v = sqrt(2EK/m).
   Plugging that in for sqrt((2 * 2891)/59), we get 9.9 m/s^2 with respect to significant figures.</span>

A woman on a bridge 82.2 m high sees a raft floating at a constant speed on the river below. She drops a stone from rest in an a
solong [7]

Answer:

0.71 m/s

Explanation:

We find the time it takes the stone to hit the water.

Using y = ut - 1/2gt² where y = height of bridge, u = initial speed of stone = 0 m/s, g = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s² (negative since it is directed downwards)and t = time it takes the stone to hit the water surface.

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

y = ut - 1/2gt²

82.2 m = (0m/s)t - 1/2( -9.8 m/s²)t²

82.2 m = 0 + (4.9 m/s²)t²

82.2 m =  (4.9 m/s²)t²

t²  = 82.2 m/4.9 m/s²

t² = 16.78 s²

t = √16.78 s²

t = 4.1 s

This is also the time it takes the raft to move from 5.04 m before the bridge to 2.13 m before the bridge. So, the distance moved by the raft in time t = 4.1 s is 5.04 m - 2.13 m = 2.91 m.

Since speed = distance/time, the raft's speed v = 2.91 m/4.1 s = 0.71 m/s

An energy storage system based on a flywheel (a rotating disk) can store a maximum of 3.7 MJ when the flywheel is rotating at 16
Likurg_2 [28]

The moment of inertia of the flywheel is 2.63 kg-m^{2}

It is given that,

The maximum energy stored on the flywheel is given as

E=3.7MJ= 3.7×10^{6} J

Angular velocity of the flywheel is 16000\frac{rev}{min} = 1675.51\frac{rad}{sec}

So to find the moment of inertia of the flywheel. The energy of a flywheel in rotational kinematics is given by :

E = \frac{1}{2}Iw^{2}

By rearranging the equation:

I = \frac{2E}{w_{2} }

I = 2.63 kg-m^{2}

Thus the moment of inertia of the flywheel is 2.63 kg-m^{2}.
