Answer:

Explanation:

frequency, f = 240 hz

speed of sound, v = 343 m/s

Let λ is the wavelength.

v = f x λ

343 = 240 x λ

λ = 1.43 m

The smallest separation for the destructive interference is given by

d = λ / 2

d = 1.43 / 2 = 0.71 m

Answer:

The smallest separation distance between the speakers is 0.71 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Two speakers, one directly behind the other, are each generating a 240-Hz sound wave, f = 240 Hz

Let the speed of sound is 343 m/s in air. The speed of sound is given by the formula as :

v=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{343\ m/s}{240\ Hz}\\\\\lambda=1.42\ m

To produce destructive interference at a listener standing in front of them,

d=\dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\d=\dfrac{1.42}{2}\\\\d=0.71\ m

So, the smallest separation distance between the speakers is 0.71 m. Hence, this is the required solution.

Does passing a magnet through a coil of wire break off it’s electric current
hichkok12 [17]
A magnetic field is actually generated by a moving current (or moving electric charge specifically). The magnetic field generated by a moving current can be found by using the right hand rule, point your right thumb in the direction of current flow, then the wrap of your fingers will tell you what direction the magnetic field is. In the case of current traveling up a wire, the magnetic field generated will encircle the wire. Similarly electromagnets work by having a wire coil, and causing current to spin in a circle, generating a magnetic field perpendicular to the current flow (again right hand rule).

So if you were to take a permenant magnet and cut a hole in it then string a straight wire through it... my guess is nothing too interesting would happen. The two different magnetic fields might ineteract in a peculiar way, but nothing too fascinating, perhaps if you give me more context as to what you might think would happen or what made you come up with this question I could help.

What is the primary ingredient of power yoga?
LuckyWell [14K]
The primary ingredient of power yoga was said to be heated. The heat makes the power yoga so particularly effective as a physical therapy. The heat is primarily used in shaping glasses to any figures that the person may want to. Power yoga can practically provide more space for fluids to carry the nutrients and remove toxins

A wire is wrapped around a piece of iron, and then electricity is run through the wire. What happens to the iron?
katrin [286]
Search Results<span>By simply wrapping wire that has an electrical current running through it around a nail, you can make an electromagnet. When the electric current moves through a wire, it makes a magnetic field. ... You can make a temporary magnet by stroking apiece of iron or steel (such as a needle) along with a permanent magnet.

Hope This Helps!</span>
