What properties of sound determine the volume of sound?

Physics

Mila [183]3 years ago

The amplitude of sound waves determines the volume of the sound. Not by the motion of sound, only pitch in that aspect. It is related to the square of the amplitude.

A ski gondola is connected to the top of a hill by a steel cable of length 620 m and diameter 1.5 cm. As the gondola comes to th
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

(a) 89 m/s

(b) 11000 N

Explanation:

Note that answers are given to 2 significant figures which is what we have in the values in the question.

(a) Speed is given by the ratio of distance to time. In the question, the time given was the time it took the pulse to travel the length of the cable twice. Thus, the distance travelled is twice the length of the cable.

v=\dfrac{2\times 620 \text{ m}}{14\text{ s}} = \dfrac{1240\text{ m}}{14\text{ s}}=88.571428\ldots \text{ m/s}= 89\text{ m/s}

(b) The tension, T, is given by

v =\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}

where v is the speed, T is the tension and \mu is the mass per unit length.

Hence,

T = \mu\cdot v^{2}

To determine \mu, we need to know the mass of the cable. We use the density formula:

\rho = \dfrac{m}{V}

where m is the mass and V is the volume.

m=\rho\cdot V

If the length is denoted by l, then

\mu = \dfrac{m}{l} = \dfrac{\rho\cdot V}{l}

T = \dfrac{\rho\cdot V}{l} v^{2}

The density of steel = 8050 kg/m3

The cable is approximately a cylinder with diameter 1.5 cm and length or height of 620 m. Its volume is

V = \pi \dfrac{d^{2}}{4} l

T = \dfrac{\rho\cdot\pi d^2 l}{4l}v^2 = \dfrac{\rho\cdot\pi d^2}{4}v^2

T = \dfrac{8050\times\pi\times0.015^2}{4} \times 88.57^2

T = 11159.4186\ldots \text{ N} = 11000 \text{ N}

What do protoplanets eventually grow into?​
kow [346]

Answer:

a planet

Explanation:

If planetesimals, objects that combined to form protoplanets, were to collide head on in the early solar nebula, they would shatter to the point where they would be unable to grow into a larger size, a protoplanet. A protoplanet is a massive object that will eventually become a planet.

Why is it important for a scientist to be open-minded but skeptical?
insens350 [35]
It’s important for a scientist to be open-minded because they need to be able to understand or creative anything that was never thought about. It’s also important for a scientist to be skeptical because some ideas or products that they hear about can have false factors. I hope this helped!

grigory [225]

Answer:

Both AC and DC describe types of current flow in a circuit. In direct current (DC), the electric charge (current) only flows in one direction. Electric charge in alternating current (AC), on the other hand, changes direction periodically.

What type of energy is related to kinetic energy of all the particles in a sample of matter
pshichka [43]
The kinetic molecular theory of matter offers a description of the microscopic properties of atoms (or molecules) and their interactions, leading to observable macroscopic properties (such as pressure, volume, temperature). An application of the theory is that it helps to explain why matter exists in different phases (solid, liquid, and gas) and how matter can change from one phase to the next.
