Two cellists, one seated directly behind the other in an orchestra, play the same 220-Hz note for the conductor who is directly

in front of them. What is the smallest non-zero separation that produces constructive interference?

Answer:

d= 1.56 m

Explanation:

In order to have a constructive interference, the path difference between the sources of the sound, must be equal to an even multiple of the semi-wavelength, as follows:

⇒ d = d₂ - d₁ = 2n*(λ/2)

The minimum possible value for this distance, is when n=1, as it can be seen here:

dmin = λ

In any wave, there exists a fixed relationship between the wave speed, the frequency and the wavelength:

v = λ*f

If v = vsound = 343 m/s, and f = 220 1/s, we can solve for λ:

λ =\frac{v}{f} =  \frac{343 m/s}{220(1/s)} = 1.56 m

⇒ dmin =λ = 1.56 m

When you cook a marshmallow on a metal poker tool over an open flame, energy is transferred. Identify the three different ways t
ss7ja [257]

When we cook a marshmallow on a metal poker tool over an open flame, there are three ways in which heat energy is transferred: Conduction, convection, and radiation.

<h3>Heat energy transfer</h3>

Heat transfer is the natural transfer of heat from an object with a higher temperature to an object with a lower temperature. Heat transfer can occur in three ways, namely conduction, convection, and  radiation.

  1. Conduction occurs when heat flows from a place with a high temperature to a place with a lower temperature using a fixed heat-conducting medium. Heat transfer from the open flame to the marshmallows via direct fire contact with the marshmallows is an example of conduction.
  2. Convection is the transfer of heat by means of a stream in which the intermediate substance also moves. If the particles move and cause heat to propagate, convection will occur. The hot air rising from the flames burning the marshmallows is an example of convection.
  3. Radiation is heat transfer without a medium. Radiation can also usually be accompanied by light. The direct transfer of heat from the flame to the marshmallow in the form of waves is an example of radiation.

All galaxies follow the law of gravity. True or False
Juliette [100K]

The answer is true. All the galaxies in the universe follow the law of gravity.

<span>Based from the book, It's about Time: the Illusion of Einstein’s Time Dilation Explained, </span>

Einstein had explained that all the heavenly bodies in the universe follow the same scientific laws that are similar to our solar system. The stars and planets are held by the principles of inertia and gravity
