How does being underwater change the ability to localize sound? why is this so?

1 answer:

3 0

Being underwater REDUCES the ability to localize sound. This is because, the resonance frequency of the external ear is reduced when the outer ear canal is fill with water. The presence of the water - air interface when one is under water and the reduction in the impedance matching ability of the middle ear also contribute to the reduction in one's ability to localize sound underwater.

Certain rifles can fire a bullet with a speed of 950 m/s just as it leaves the muzzle (this speed is called the muzzle velocity)

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

a) By $v^2 = u^2 + 2as$ => a= 70291.70.

(b)By $v = u + at$ => t= 1.58 ms.

(c)By $v^2 = u^2 - 2gh$ => H = 46045.92 m.

Explanation:

a) By $v^2 = u^2 + 2as$

$(950)^2 = 0 + 2 \times a \times 0.75\\a = 601666.67 m/s^2\\a/g = 688858.70/9.8 = 70291.70$

(b)By $v = u + at$

$950 = 0 + 601666.67 \times t\\t = 1.58 x 10^-3 sec = 1.58 ms$

(c)By $v^2 = u^2 - 2gh$

$0 = (950)^2 - 2 \times9.8 \times H\\H = 46045.92 m$

A 1050 W carbon-dioxide laser emits light with a wavelength of 10μm into a 3.0-mm-diameter laser beam. What force does the laser

avanturin [10]

The force exerted by the laser beam on a completely absorbing target is $3.5 \times 10^{-6} \ N$ .

The given parameters;

power of the laser light, P = 1050 W
wavelength of the emitted light, λ = 10 μm

The speed of the emitted laser light is given as;

v = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

The force exerted by the laser beam on a completely absorbing target is calculated as follows;

P = Fv

$F = \frac{P}{v} \\\\F = \frac{1050}{3\times 10^8} \\\\F = 3.5 \times 10^{-6} \ N$

Thus, the force exerted by the laser beam on a completely absorbing target is $3.5 \times 10^{-6} \ N$ .

8. How is the crystal size different for extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks?

eduard

Igneous rocks which form by the crystallization of magma at a depth within the Earth are called intrusive rocks. Intrusive rocks are characterized by large crystal sizes, i.e., their visual appearance shows individual crystals interlocked together to form the rock mass. hope that helped
