Frequency = rate of sploosh = 2 per second  =  2 Hz.

Period = ( 1/frequency ) =  1/2  second

Speed = (wavelength) x (frequency) = (0.15m) x ( 2/sec) = 0.075 m/s .

Sound with a frequency of 1250 Hz leaves a room through a doorway with a width of 1.05 m.At what minimum angle relative to the c
kiruha [24]

Answer:

15.19°, 31.61°, 51.84°

Explanation:

We need to fin the angle for m=1,2,3

We know that the expression for wavelenght is,

\lambda = \frac{c}{f}

Substituting,

\lambda = \frac{344}{1250}

\lambda = 0.2752m

Once we have the wavelenght we can find the angle by the equation of the single slit difraction,

sin\theta = \frac{m \lambda}{W}

Where,

W is the width

m is the integer

\lambda the wavelenght

Re-arrange the expression,

\theta = sin^{-1} \frac{m\lambda}{W}

For m=1,

\theta = sin^{-1} \frac{1 (0.2752)}{1.05}= 15.19\°

For m=2,

\theta = sin^{-1} \frac{2 (0.2752)}{1.05}= 31.61\°

For m=3,

\theta = sin^{-1} \frac{3 (0.2752)}{1.05}= 51.84\°

<em>The angle of diffraction is directly proportional to the size of the wavelength.</em>

An object has an average acceleration of +6.18 m/s2 for 0.266 s . At the end of this time the object's velocity is +9.90 m/s .
Archy [21]

At the start of the 0.266 s, the object's speed was 8.26 m/s.

The question can only be talking about speed, not velocity.

an airplanes propeller completes one revolution in 65ms. a)what is the angular speed in rpm? in rad/s?
miss Akunina [59]

-- We already know the rate of revolutions per time ...
it's 1 revolution per 0.065 sec.  We just have to
unit-convert that to 'per minute'.

(1 rev / 0.065 sec) x (60 sec / min) = (1 x 60) / (0.065) = <em>923 RPM</em>  (rounded)
_______________________________

-- 1 revolution = 2π radians

  (2π rad) / (0.065 sec) = (2π / 0.065) = <em>96.66 rad/sec</em>  (rounded)
