Two loudspeakers are about 10 m apart in the front of a large classroom. if either speaker plays a pure tone at a single frequen

cy of 400 hz, the loudness seems pretty even as you wander around the room, and gradually decreases in volume as you move farther from the speaker. if both speakers then play the same tone together, what do you hear as you wander around the room?

The observed differences in amplitudes are due to interference between the sound waves. The decrease in amplitude is due to destructive interference of the waves and the increase in amplitude is due to constructive interference.

<em>As the person moves around the room, he will find several point where the sound is maximum and several point where there is no sound. It is due to constructive and destructive interference of sound.</em>

Explanation:

The two loudspeakers kept at a distance of 10\text{ m} from one another produce the sound. If the person moving in the room listens to the sound of only one loudspeaker at a time, the intensity of the sound will be higher when he is near the loudspeaker and it will decrease as the person will move away from it.

If both the loudspeakers are switched on, the sound waves from both the loudspeakers can be heard in the room. As the sound waves travel throughout the room, they interfere with one another.

The interference of the sound waves causes the constructive interference and destructive interference in the room. Due to this, there are points of constructive interference where the intensity of the sound is highest due to both speakers.

Whereas at the point of destructive interference, the intensity of the sound is minimum.

Thus, <em>As the person moves around the room, he will find several point where the sound is maximum and several point where there is no sound. It is due to constructive and destructive interference of sound.</em>

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

(a)0.0002778

(b)1.16\times10^{-5}

Explanation:

(a) The minute hand has a period of 60 minutes ( or 60 * 60 = 3600 seconds) for 1 circle. Its frequency per second would be

1 / 3600 = 0.0002778

(b) The hour hand has a period of 24 hours ( or 24*60 * 60 = 86400

seconds) for 1 circle. Its frequency per second would be

1 / 86400 = 1.16\times10^{-5}

A car travels 40 miles in 30 minutes.
lukranit [14]

Answer:

(a)Average velocity ,v =128.74 Km/hr

(b)Kinetic Energy , K=958546.875 Joule

(c)Distance, s=268.8m

(d)Acceleration, a= - 2.38 m/s^2

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Distance travelled = 40 miles

Time taken = 30 minutes.

(A) The average velocity in kilometres/hour

Converting 40 miles into km ,

we know that,

1 mile = 1.60934

40 miles =  40 x 1.60934

so 40 miles  =  64.3738 Km

similarly converting 30 minutes into hours

1 minute = \frac{1}{60}hours

30 minute = \frac{30}{60}hours

30 minute = \frac{1}{2}hours

Now

Average velocity = \frac{Speed}{time}

Substituting Values,

Average velocity = \frac{64.3738}{\frac[1}{2}}

Average velocity = 64.3738 \times 2

Average velocity =128.74 Km/hr

(B) If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its If the car weighs 1.5 tons, what is its kinetic energy in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)? in joules (Note: you will need to convert your velocity to m/s)?

Converting 1.5 tons into kg we get

1 ton = 1000 kg

so 1.5 ton =1500 kg

converting  velocity to m/s

128.74  \times \frac{5}{18}

=>35.75 m/s----------------------------------------------------------(1)

kinetic energy  K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Substituting the values,

K= \frac{1}{2}1500(35.75)^2

K= \frac{1}{2}1500(1278.06)

K= \frac{1500 \times (1278.06)}{2}

K= \frac{1917093.75}{2}

K=958546.875 Joule---------------------------------------------(2)

(c)When the driver applies the brake, it takes 15 seconds to stop. How far does the car travel (in meters) while stopping

Lets use Distance formula,

S= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

Substituting the known values,

s= ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

s= (37.75)(15)+\frac{1}{2}a(15)^2

s=566.25+\frac{1}{2}a(225)

s=566.25+\frac{(225a)}{2}-------------------------------------(3)

(D) What is the average acceleration of the car (in m/s2) during braking?

Using the formula

v=u +at

re arranging the formula we get,

a = \frac{v - u}{t}

Substituting the values

a = \frac{0 - 35.75}{15}

a = \frac{- 35.75}{15}

a= - 2.38 m/s^2----------------------------------------(4)

Now substituting 4 in 3 we get

s=566.25+\frac{(225( - 2.38)}{2}

s=566.25+\frac{-535.5}{2}

s=536.25-267.75

s=268.8m--------------------------------------------------------------(5)
