Two loudspeakers emit sound waves of the same frequency along the x-axis. The amplitude of each wave is a. The sound intensity i

leonid [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

To find the amplitude of the sound, we must first determine the wavelength and the phase difference between the two speakers.

For the wavelength;

Recall that, the separation between two successive max. and min. intensity points are $\dfrac{\lambda}{2}$

Thus; for both speakers; the wavelength of the sound is:

$\dfrac{\lambda}{2} = (10+30) cm$

$\dfrac{\lambda}{2} = (40) cm$

λ = 80 cm

The relation between the path difference(Δx) and the phase difference(Δ∅) is:

$\Delta \phi = \dfrac{2 \pi}{\lambda}\Delta x + \Delta \phi_o$

where;

Δx = 10 cm

λ = 80 cm

Δ∅ = π rad

∴

$\Delta \phi = \dfrac{2 \pi}{\lambda}\Delta x + \Delta \phi_o$

$\pi \ rad = \dfrac{2 \pi}{80 \ cm}(10 \ cm) + \Delta \phi_o$

$\pi \ rad = \dfrac{2 \pi}{8}+ \Delta \phi_o$

$\pi \ rad = \dfrac{ \pi}{4}+ \Delta \phi_o$

$\Delta \phi_o = \pi -\dfrac{ \pi}{4}$

$\Delta \phi_o = \dfrac{ 4\pi - \pi}{4}$

$\Delta \phi_o = \dfrac{ 3\pi}{4} \ rad$

Suppose both speakers are placed side-by-side, then the path difference between the two speakers is: Δx = 0 cm

Thus, we have:

$\Delta \phi = \dfrac{2 \pi}{\lambda}\Delta x + \Delta \phi_o$

$\Delta \phi = \dfrac{2 \pi}{\lambda}(0 \ cm ) + \dfrac{3 \pi}{4} \ rad$

$\Delta \phi = \dfrac{3 \pi}{4} \ rad$

∴

The amplitude of the sound wave if the two speakers are placed side-by-side is:

$A = 2a \ cos \bigg (\dfrac{\Delta \phi }{2} \bigg)$

$A = 2a \ cos \bigg (\dfrac{\dfrac{3 \pi}{4} }{2} \bigg)$

$A = 2a \ cos \bigg ({\dfrac{3 \pi}{8} } \bigg)$

A = 0.765a

Complete the ray diagram and label incident ray, refracted ray, angle of incidence, and angle of refraction

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Solution

verified

Verified by Toppr

(a) The labelled diagram is shown.

(b) The refractive index of diamond is 2.42. Refractive index of diamond is the ratio of the speed of light in air to the speed of light in diamond.i.e.,

μ=

Speedoflightindiamond

Speedoflightinair

and, the ratio of these velocities is 2.42. i.e., This means that the speed of light in diamond will reduce by a factor of 2.42 as compared to its speed in air. In other words, the speed of light in diamond is

1/2.42

times the speed of light in vacuum.

Explanation:

a) Draw and label the diagram given :

(i) Incident ray

(ii) Refracted ray

(iii) Emergent ray

(iv) Angle of reflection

(v) Angle of deviation

(v) Angle of emergence

(b) The refractive index of diamond is 2.42. What is the meaning of this statement in relation to speed of light?

Your washer has power of 450 watts, and your dryer has a power of 3000

qaws [65]

Answer:

See explanations below

Explanation:

Power = Workdone/Time

Power of washer = 450watts

Time used to clean the clothes = 1hour = 3600secs

Energy used to clean a load of clothes in 1 hour of

washing = 450/3600

Energy used to clean a load of clothes in 1 hour of

washing = 0.125Joules

For drying;

Energy = 3000/1.5*3600

Energy = 3000/5400

Energy = 0.556Joules

Hence the energy in washing id 0.556Joules
