The two speakers at S1 and S2 are adjusted so that the observer at O hears an intensity of 6 W/m² when either S1 or S2 is sounde

d alone. The speakers are driven in-phase (at the speakers) with various frequencies of sound. The distance between the two speakers is 3m and the distance between the speaker S1 and the oberver is 4m..
Find the lowest frequencies, f1 for which the observer at O will hear an intensity of 16 W/m² when both speakers are on.

Answer:

The minimum frequency is 702.22 Hz

Explanation:

The two speakers are adjusted as attached in the figure. From the given data we know that

S_1 S_2=3m

S_1 O=4m

By Pythagoras theorem

                                 S_2O=\sqrt{(S_1S_2)^2+(S_1O)^2}\\S_2O=\sqrt{(3)^2+(4)^2}\\S_2O=\sqrt{9+16}\\S_2O=\sqrt{25}\\S_2O=5m

Now

The intensity at O when both speakers are on is given by

I=4I_1 cos^2(\pi \frac{\delta}{\lambda})

Here

  • I is the intensity at O when both speakers are on which is given as 6 W/m^2
  • I1 is the intensity of one speaker on which is 6  W/m^2
  • δ is the Path difference which is given as

                                           \delta=S_2O-S_1O\\\delta=5-4\\\delta=1 m

  • λ is wavelength which is given as

                                             \lambda=\frac{v}{f}

      Here

              v is the speed of sound which is 320 m/s.

              f is the frequency of the sound which is to be calculated.

                                  16=4\times 6 \times cos^2(\pi \frac{1 \times f}{320})\\16/24= cos^2(\pi \frac{1f}{320})\\0.667= cos^2(\pi \frac{f}{320})\\cos(\pi \frac{f}{320})=\pm0.8165\\\pi \frac{f}{320}=\frac{7 \pi}{36}+2k\pi \\ \frac{f}{320}=\frac{7 }{36}+2k \\\\ {f}=320 \times (\frac{7 }{36}+2k )

where k=0,1,2

for minimum frequency f_1, k=1

                                  {f}=320 \times (\frac{7 }{36}+2 \times 1 )\\\\{f}=320 \times (\frac{79 }{36} )\\\\ f=702.22 Hz

So the minimum frequency is 702.22 Hz

If an object is propelled upward from a height of 128 feet at an initial velocity of 112 feet per​ second, then its height h aft
Marina CMI [18]

Explanation:

The equation of motion of an object is given by :

h(t)=-16t^2+112t+128

Where

t is the time in seconds

We need to find the time when the object hits the ground. When the object hits the ground, h(t) = 0

So,

-16t^2+112t+128=0

-t^2+7t+8=0

On solving above equation using online calculator, t = 8 seconds. So, the object hit the ground after 8 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

Por una resistencia de 10 Ω fluyen 5A. ¿Cuál será la diferencia de potencial que se le debe aplicar a la resistencia?
ra1l [238]

Answer:

V = 50 volts

Explanation:

Given that,

Resistance, R = 10 ohms

Current, I = 5 A

We need to find the potential difference across the circuit. We know that,

V = IR

Put all the values,

V = 5 × 10

V = 50 volts

Hence, the potential difference is equal to 50 volts.

6.
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

12 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) = 7.6 kg

Distance (d) = 6 m

Velocity (v) = 5 m/s

Force (F) = 2 N

Workdone (Wd) =.?

Workdone can be defined as the product of force and distance moved in the direction of the force. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Workdone = Force × distance

Wd = F × d

With the above formula, we can obtain the workdone as follow:

Distance (d) = 6 m

Force (F) = 2 N

Workdone (Wd) =.?

Wd = F × d

Wd = 2 × 6

Wd = 12 J

Thus, the workdone is 12 J
