Two in-phase loudspeakers that emit sound with the same frequency are placed along a wall and are separated by a distance of 5.0

0 m. A person is standing 12.0 m away from the wall, equidistant from the loudspeakers. When the person moves 1.00 m parallel to the wall, she experiences destructive interference for the first time. What is the frequency of the sound? The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.

Answer:

f = 421.8 Hz

Explanation:

When she moved a distance of 1 m from mid point she observe first destructive interference due to two speakers

so we can say that path difference of sound due to two speakers will be equal to half of the wavelength

so path difference is given as

\Delta L = {3.5^2 + 12^2}^{0.5} - {1.5^2 + 12^2}^{0.5}

so it will be

\Delta L = 12.5 - 12.093

\Delta L = 0.4066

now we know that

\frac{\lambda}{2} = 0.4066

\lambda = 0.813

now frequency of sound is given as

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

f = \frac{343}{0.813}

f = 421.8 Hz

Think Critically Suppose your teacher gave you a slide of an unknown cell. How would you tell whether the cell was from an anima
topjm [15]

Answer:

You will be able to tell whether the unknown cell is from an animal or from a plant through the knowledge of difference between plants and animal cells.

Explanation:

A cell can be defined as the simplest bit of living matter which exhibits a variety of shapes and sizes and that can exist independently.

When a slide of an unknown cell is studied under a microscope, different cell structures would be observed which would be used to conclude if the cell on the slide is a plant or animal cell.

The following features are observed in a plant cell:

--> cellulose cell wall is present

--> Chloroplast is present

--> A large central vacuole is present

--> Centriole is absent

The following features are observed in animal cell:

--> Cellulose cell wall is absent

--> Chloroplast is absent

--> Small vacuoles is present

--> Centriole is present

The difference between a plant and an animal cell can be seen from the features above and a clear knowledge of this will help the student tell whether the unknown cell is from an animal or from a plant.

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

East direction

Explanation:

Given that

Charge on the particle is positive.

Moving towards the center of earth .

We know that N(north ) pole in magnetic fields work as source of magnetic lines and S(South ) pole works and sink for magnetic lines.

Therefore due to the earth magnetic fields , the positive ions will deflect  towards  East direction.

Thus the answer will be East direction.

Why does a can collapse when a vacuum pump removes air from the can?
xeze [42]
When a vacuum pump removes the air within the can, there is no more air molecules bombarding the inner surface of the can. Since the inner pressure=0, the atmospheric pressure will crush the can. Atmosoheric pressure is usually =1.3*10^5Pa.
