Two antennas located at points A and B are broadcasting radio waves of frequency 96.0 MHz, perfectly in phase with each other. T

he two antennas are separated by a distance d=9.30m. An observer, P, is located on the x axis, a distance x=57.0m from antenna A, so that APB forms a right triangle with PB as hypotenuse. What is the phase difference between the waves arriving at P from antennas A and B?
Now observer P walks along the x axis toward antenna A. What is P's distance from A when he first observes fully destructive interference between the two waves?

Answer:

a)   Δφ = 1.51 rad , b)  x = 21.17 m

Explanation:

This is an interference problem, as they indicate that the distance AP is on the x-axis the antennas must be on the y-axis, the phase difference is

          Δr /λ = Δfi / 2π

          Δfi = Δr /λ 2π

          Δr = r₂-r₁

let's look the distances

         r₁ = 57.0 m

We use Pythagoras' theorem for the other distance

         r₂ = √ (x² + y²)

         r₂ = √(57² + 9.3²)

         r₂ = 57.75 m

The  difference is

         Δr = 57.75 - 57.0

         Δr = 0.75 m

Let's look for the wavelength

        c =  λ f

          λ = c / f

          λ = 3 10⁸ / 96.0 10⁶

          λ = 3.12 m

Let's calculate

         Δφ = 0.75 / 3.12 2π

         Δφ = 1.51 rad

b) for destructive interference the path difference must be λ/2, the equation for destructive interference with φ = π remains

           Δr = (2n + 1) λ / 2

           

For the first interference n = 0

           Δr = λ / 2

           Δr = r₂ - r₁

We substitute the values

        √ (x² + y²) - x = 3.12 / 2

Let's solve for distance x

          √ (x² + y²) = 1.56 + x

          x² + y² = (1.56 + x)²

          x² + y² = 1.56² + 2 1.56 x + x²

          y2 = 20.4336 +3.12 x

          x = (y² -20.4336) /3.12

          x = (9.3² -20.4336) /3.12

          x = 21.17 m

This is the distance for the first minimum

Water is discharged from a pipeline at a velocity v (in ft/sec) given by v = 1306p(1/2), where p is the pressure (in psi). If th
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

a=38.5 ft/sec^{2}

Explanation:

Note that acceleration is the rate change of velocity i.e

acceleration=\frac{change in velocity}{change in time}\\a=\frac{dv}{dt} \\.

Since the velocity is giving as a variable dependent on the pressure, we have to differentiate implicitly both side with respect to time,i.e

\frac{dv}{dt}=1306*(1/2)p^{-1/2}\frac{dp}{dt} \\

if we substitute value for the pressure as giving in the question and also since the rate change of pressure is 0.354psi/sec, we have

a=653*0.1667*0.354\\

a=\frac{dv}{dt}=653(36)^{-1/2}*0.354\\  a=38.5 ft/sec^{2}

What is the value of the equivalent resistance for the three resistors connected in series?
Harman [31]

The value of the equivalent resistance for the three resistors connected in series will be the sum of the three values.

To find the answer, we have to know more about the equivalent resistance.

<h3>What is meant by equivalent resistance?</h3>
  • equivalent resistance is the total value of the resistance connected in a circuit.
  • If n resistors are connected in series, then the equivalent resistance will be,

                R_E=R_1+R_2+..........+R_n

  • In our question we have three resistors. Thus, the equivalent resistance will be,

               R_E=R_1+R_2+R_3

Thus, we can conclude that, the value of the equivalent resistance for the three resistors connected in series will be the sum of the three values.

A wave passes along the surface of the water in a ripple tank. Describe the motion of a molecule on the surface as the water pas
laila [671]

Answer:

Explanation:

Water waves are generally a transverse wave which do not cause permanent displacement of molecules of the medium. Transverse waves are waves in which the direction of propagation of the wave is perpendicular to the direction of vibration of the particles of the medium.

As the wave propagates from one point to another on the surface of water transferring energy, a molecule of water on its surface vibrates upwards and downwards. Its motion is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. After the vibration, it comes back to its initial position.

If you lift the front wheel of a poorly maintained bicycle off the ground and then start it spinning at 0.69 rev/s , friction in
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

magnitude of the frictional torque is 0.11 Nm

Explanation:

Moment of inertia I = 0.33 kg⋅m2

Initial angular velocity w° = 0.69 rev/s = 2 x 3.142 x 0.69 = 4.34 rad/s

Final angular velocity w = 0 (since it stops)

Time t = 13 secs

Using w = w° + §t

Where § is angular acceleration

O = 4.34 + 13§

§ = -4.34/13 = -0.33 rad/s2

The negative sign implies it's a negative acceleration.

Frictional torque that brought it to rest must be equal to the original torque.

Torqu = I x §

T = 0.33 x 0.33 = 0.11 Nm
