A motorcycle is travelling at a constant velocity of 30ms. The motor is in high gear and emits a hum of 700Hz. The speed of soun

d in air is 340ms, and there is no wind. a. What is the period of the sound waves emitted from the motorcycle?b. What is the distance travelled by the motorcycle during one period of the sound oscillation?c. What is the distance travelled by a sound wave in air during one period of oscillation?d. The humming of the motorcycle is a sound that is emitted in all directions and, once emitted, it travels in the reference frame of the still air at the speed of sound in air. Consider the emitted sound that is moving directly out in front of the motorcycle

Answer:

a) T=1.43\times 10^{-3}\ s

b) d=0.0429\ m

c) \lambda=0.4857\ m

d) f_o=767.7\ Hz

Explanation:

Given:

  • velocity of the sound from the source, S=340\ m.s^{-1}
  • original frequency of sound from the source, f_s=700\ Hz
  • speed of the source, v_s=30\ m.s^{-1}

(a)

We know time period is inverse of frequency:

Mathematically:

T=\frac{1}{f}

T=\frac{1}{700}

T=1.43\times 10^{-3}\ s

(b)

Distance travelled by the motorcycle during one period of sound oscillation:

d=v_s.T

d=30\times 1.43\times 10^{-3}

d=0.0429\ m

(c)

The distance travelled by the sound during the period of one oscillation is its wavelength.

\lambda=\frac{S}{f}

\lambda=\frac{340}{700}

\lambda=0.4857\ m

(d)

observer frequency with respect to a stationary observer:

<u>According to the Doppler's effect:</u>

\frac{f_o}{f_s}= \frac{S+v_o}{S-v_s} ...........................(1)

where:

f_o\ \&\ v_o are the observed frequency and the velocity of observer respectively.

Here, observer is stationary.

\therefore v_o=0\ m.s^{-1}

Now, putting values in eq. (1)

\frac{f_o}{700}= \frac{340+0}{340-30}

f_o=767.7\ Hz

The windshield of a car has a total length of arm and blade of 9 ​inches, and rotates back and forth through an angle of 93degre
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The area of the portion of the windshield cleaned by the 7-in wiper blade is 62.49 in²

Explanation:

Given

Length of blade = 9 inches

Angle of rotation = 93°

We're to calculate the area of the portion of the windshield cleaned by the 7​-in wiper​ blade?

We'll solve this by using area of a sector.

Area of a sector = ½r²θ

where θ is in radians.

So, angle of rotation (93°) must first be converted to radians

Converting 93º to radians, we get 31π/60

The area of the region swept out by the wiper blade = (area of the sector where r = 9 and

θ = 31π/60) - (area of the sector where r = (9-7) and θ = 31π/60).

We're making use of 9-7 because that region is outside the boundary of the 7in blade

So Area = ½*9²*31π/60 - ½*2²*31π/60

Area = ½*31π/60(9²-7²)

Area = 31π/120 * (81 - 49)

Area = 31π/120 * 32

Area = 992π/120

Area = 62.49151386765697 in²

Area ≈ 62.49 in²

Hence, the area of the portion of the windshield cleaned by the 7-in wiper blade is 62.49 in²

A student walks 4 block east, 7 blocks west, 1 blocks east then 2 blocks west in an hour. Her average speed is____ block/hour
Gemiola [76]

Average speed = (total distance) / (total time)

Average speed = (4+7+1+2 blox) / (1 hour)

<em>Average speed = 14 blocks/hour</em>

<em></em>

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and take a wild guess:

I'm guessing that there's another question glued onto the end of this one, and it asks you to find either her displacement or her average velocity.  I'm so sure of this that I'm gonna give you the solution for that too.  If there's no more question, then you won't need this, and you can just discard it.  I won't mind.

Average velocity = (displacement) / (time for the displacement)

"Displacement" = distance and direction from the start point to the end point, regardless of how she got there.

Displacement = (4E + 7W + 1E + 2W)

Displacement = (5E + 9W)

<em>Displacement = 4 blocks west</em>

Average velocity = (4 blocks west) / (1 hour)

<em>Average velocity = 4 blocks/hour  West</em>
