Two loudspeakers, A and B, are driven by the same amplifier and emit sinusoidal waves in phase. The frequency of the waves emitt

ed by each speaker is 172 Hz. You are 8.00 m from speaker A. Take the speed of sound in air to be 344 m/s.What is the closest you can be to speaker B and be at a point of perfectly destructive interference?

Answer:

7 m .

Explanation:

For destructive interference

Path difference = odd multiple of λ /2

Wave length of sound from each of  A and B.

= speed / frequency

λ = 334 / 172 = 2 m

λ/2 = 1 m

If I am  1 m away from B , the path difference will be

8 - 1 = 7 m  which is  odd multiple of 1 or λ /2

So path difference becomes odd multiple of  λ /2.

This is the condition of destructive interference.

So one meter is the closest distance which I can remain at so that i can hear destructive interference.

Answer:

1m.

Explanation:

Frequency = f = 172 Hz

Speed = V = 344 m/s

For the destructive interference,

Wavelength = λ = V/f = 344/172 = 2m

Path difference = d2 – d1 = n λ/2

Where “n” is an odd integer.

If you are 1m away from the loudspeaker B then the path difference will be,

Path difference = d2 - d1 = 8 – 1 = 7m  

Which is odd multiple of λ/2 and also condition for destructive interference. Hence, to hear the perfect destructive interference you have to stay 1m close to loudspeaker B.

The distance versus this plot for a particular object shows a quadratic relationship. Which column of distance data is possible
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

In Column A, the pattern is 1², 2², 3², etc.  So x(t) = t², which is quadratic.

In Column B, the pattern is 2*1, 2*2, 2*3, etc.  So x(t) = 2t, which is linear.

In Column C, the pattern is 9*1, 9*2, 9*3, etc.  So x(t) = 9t, which is linear.

In Column D, the pattern is 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, etc.  So x(t) = 1/t, which is reciprocal.

In Column E, the pattern is 1/1², 1/2², 1/3², etc.  So x(t) = 1/t², which is reciprocal.

A single-turn circular loop of wire of radius 65 mm lies in a plane perpendicular to a spatially uniform magnetic field. During
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Explanation:

change in flux = no of turns x area of loop x change in magnetic field

= 1 x π 65² x 10⁻⁶ x ( 650 - 350 ) x 10⁻³

= 3.9 x 10⁻³ weber .

rate of change of flux  = change of flux / time

= 3.9 x 10⁻³ / .10

= 39 x 10⁻³ V

= 39 mV .

Since the magnetic flux is directed outside page and it is increasing , induced current will be clockwise so that magnetic field is produced in opposite direction to reduce it , as per Lenz's law.
