Answer:

The potential at the point 8 meters is approximately 48.98  Joules/C

Explanation:

Notice that we need to find the potential at a point aligned to the rod's axis (see attached figure), that is located 6 meters from one end of the rod. Notice as well, that the length (L) of the rod is 5 meters.

Since we have a uniformly distributed charge, the charge density per unit of length is defined as:

\lambda=\frac{Q}{L} \\\lambda=\frac{45}{5}\,\frac{10^{-9}\,C}{m} \\\lambda=9\,\frac{10^{-9}\,C}{m}

In order to find the contribution of each little segment dx of charge

dq=\lambda\,dx

to the potential at the requested point, we need to perform an integral:

V=\int\limits^{11}_{6} {} \, dV \\V=\int\limits^{11}_{6} {} \, k\,\frac{dq}{x}  \\V=\lambda \,*k\,\int\limits^{11}_{6} {} \, \frac{dx}{x}  \\V=8.98*9  \, \,ln(\frac{11}{6}) \,\frac{J}{C} \\V=80.82\,* \,0.606 \,\frac{J}{C}\\V=48.98 \frac{J}{C}

Sound waves are a longitudinal wave that have a speed of about 340 m/s when traveling through room temperature air. What is the
AlexFokin [52]

The wavelength of the wave is 0.055 m

Explanation:

The relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the wave equation:

v=f\lambda

where

v is the speed

f is the frequency

\lambda is the wavelength

For the sound wave in this problem we have

v = 340 m/s is the speed

f = 6,191 Hz is the frequency

Solving for \lambda, we find the wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{340}{6191}=0.055 m
