When you hear a noise, you usually know the direction from which it came even if you cannot see the source. This ability is part

ly because you have hearing in two ears. Imagine a noise from a source that is directly to your right. The sound reaches your right ear before it reaches your left ear. Your brain interprets this extra travel time (Δt) to your left ear and identifies the source as being directly to your right. In this simple model, the extra travel time is maximal for a source located directly to your right or left (Δt = Δtmax). A source directly behind or in front of you has equal travel time to each ear, so Δt = 0. Sources at other locations have intermediate extra travel times (0 ≤ Δt ≤ Δtmax). Assume a source is directly to your right.(a) Estimate the distance between a person's ears. (they gave us the answer of .2... apparently the program is messed up and we have to use .2(b) If the speed of sound in air at room temperature is vs = 338 m/s,find Δtmax. (Use your estimate.)
(c) Find Δtmax if instead you and the source are in seawater at the same temperature, where vs = 1534 m/s. (Use your estimate.)

A stone is dropped from rest from the top of a building. It takes Δt = 2.2 s for it to reach the ground.
NeTakaya

Answer:

Value of magnitude of acceleration will be 9.8m/sec^2

Explanation:

It is given that when a stone is dropped it takes 2.2 sec to reach the ground

(a) As the stone is dropped from the top of building

So its initial velocity u_i will be 0 m /sec

(b) As the stone is free falling and there is no external force applied on it so its acceleration will be equal to acceleration due to gravity

So value of magnitude of acceleration will be equal to 9.8m/sec^2

What is the speed of a beam of electrons when under the simultaneous influence of E = 1.64×104 V/m B = 4.60×10−3 T Both fields a
andrezito [222]

Answer: v = 3.57×10^6 m/s; R = 4.42×10^-3m; T = 7.78×10^-9 s

Explanation:

Magnetic force(B) = 4.60×10^-3 T

Electric force(E) = 1.64×10^4 V/m

Both forces having equal magnitude ;

Magnetic force = electric force

qvB = qE

vB = E

v = (1.64×10^4) ÷ (4.60×10^-3)

v = 3.57×10^6 m/s

2.) Assume no electric field

qvB = ma

Where a = v^2 ÷ r

R = radius

a = acceleration

v = velocity

qvB = m(v^2 ÷ R)

R = (m×v) ÷ (|q|×B)

q=1.6×10^-19C

m = 9.11×10^-31kg

R = (9.11×10^-31 * 3.57×10^6) ÷ (1.6×10^-19 * 4.6×10^-3)

R = 32.5227×10^-25 ÷ 7.36×10^-22

R = 4.42×10^-3m

3.) period(T)

T = (2*pi*R) ÷ v

T = (2* 4.42×10^-3 * 3.142) ÷ (3.57×10^6)

T = (27.775×10^-3) ÷(3.57×10^6)

T = 7.78×10^-9 s

What type of contraction requires the greatest amount of tension?
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Isotonic eccentric

Explanation:

First of all, it should be noted that the term contraction has the meaning of joining or shortening. In the field of bodybuilding and workouts with loads, we can define muscle contraction as what happens whenever muscle fibers generate a tension in themselves.

This tension situation occurs in several situations, including when the muscle is shortened, elongated, moving, maintaining the same length or static.

There are different types of muscle contraction, among them we can highlight isotonic contraction, which is divided in turn into concentric and eccentric, isometric, auxotonic and isokinetic contraction.

 Isotonic contraction is the most common type of contraction that occurs in most sports or physical activities that we perform in our day to day. Normally the muscular tensions that we exert are usually accompanied by a shortening and lengthening of the muscle fibers of a muscle. In turn, the isotonic contraction is divided into two, concentric and eccentric.

Concentric concentration: is that which happens when a muscle makes a tension capable of overcoming a resistance, producing a shortening and subsequent mobilization of a part of the body overcoming said resistance. For example, when we take a spoon and take it to our mouths to eat, a concentric shortening occurs. Putting examples in the gym on the bench press the movement of raising the bar, is equivalent to the concentric phase.

Eccentric concentration: we can say that it is one in which, given a resistance, we exert a greater tension with the muscle, so that said muscle is lengthened. In the case of the bench press, the eccentric phase is when we lower the bar to the chest.

A ball is spun around in circular motion such that it completes 50 rotations in 25 s. What is the frequency of its rotation? 2.
Elis [28]

Answer:

1. f = 2 Hz

2. f = 0.011 Hz

3. f = 0.067 Hz

4. t = 4 s

Explanation:

1. The frequency of rotation is given by:

f = \frac{\omega}{2\pi}

Where:

ω: is the angular speed = 50 rotations (revolutions) in 25 s.

We need to convert the units of ω.

\omega = \frac{50 rev}{25 s}*\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev} = 4\pi rad/s

Now, the frequency is:

f = \frac{4\pi rad/s}{2\pi} = 2 Hz

2. The frequency is:

We know:

5 laps = 5 revolutions

t: time = 450 s

f = \frac{\omega}{2\pi} = \frac{\frac{5 rev}{450 s}*\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev}}{2\pi} = 0.011 Hz    

3. The frequency of the pendulum is:

f = \frac{\omega}{2\pi} = \frac{\frac{1 rev}{15 s}*\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev}}{2\pi} = 0.067 Hz

4. We have:

θ: number of revolutions = 48 rev

f = 12 Hz

t =?

The time can be calculated as follows:

f = \frac{\omega}{2\pi} = \frac{\theta}{2\pi t}

t = \frac{\theta}{2\pi f} = \frac{48 rev*\frac{2\pi rad}{1 rev}}{2\pi*12 Hz} = 4 s

I hope it helps you!
