What is the wavelength of a 256-hertz sound

1 answer:

3 0

Sound at air in STP travels at 343 m/s.

We also know the formula v=f lambda where v is the velocity, f is the frequency and lambda is the wavelength.

Substituting in values to this, we get:

343 = 256 * lambda
lambda = 343/256
=1.34 3sf

Aaand upon doing this, I realise your textbook wants you to assume the speed of sound to be 330m/s, right then, well changing the value to 330, we get 1.29m

All fires require oxygen () There is no oxygen in that room (T) .

Marina CMI [18]

The sentences are invalid and unsound.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

The fire is defined as the vigorous oxidation of a substance. Now oxidation can occur in presence of any oxidising agent. Like magnesium in presence of nitrogen in high temperature with a dazzling brownish flame to produce magnesium nitride. So fire can be produced in absence of oxygen.

Oxygen is present everywhere in world. So production of a whole room without oxygen is very tough to produce and costly process. So its very unsound.

A golf club with 65J of kinetic energy strikes a stationary golf ball with a mass of 46g. The energy transfer is only 20% effici

umka21 [38]

Kinetic energy of golf club = 65J,
kinetic energy supplied to golf ball = 20% of 65 = 0.2 * 65 = 13J,
kinetic energy of ball = [mass * Velocity²]/2,
mass = 46gm = 0.046Kg,
[0.046 * V²]/2 = 13, or 0.046 *V² = 26,
V² = 26/0.046 = 565.22,
V = 23.77 m/sec = initial velocity of golf ball after hitting.

Question 2 (10 points)

kenny6666 [7]

The force required to slow the truck was -5020 N

Explanation:

First of all, we find the acceleration of the truck, which is given by

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

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

For the truck in this problem,

v = 11.5 m/s

u = 21.9 m/s

t = 2.88 s

So the acceleration is

$a=\frac{11.5-21.9}{2.88}=-3.6 m/s^2$

where the negative sign means that this is a deceleration.

Now we can find the force exerted on the truck, which is given by Newton's second law:

$F=ma$

where

m = 1390 kg is the mass of the truck

$a=-3.6 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

And substituting,

$F=(1390)(-3.6)=-5004 N$

So the closest answer among the option is -5020 N.

g A thin-walled hollow cylinder and a solid cylinder, both have same mass 2.0 kg and radius 20 cm, start rolling down from rest

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a. i. 3.43 m/s ii. 2.8 m/s

b. The thin-walled cylinder

Explanation:

a. Find translational speed of each cylinder upon reaching the bottom

The potential energy change of each mass = total kinetic energy gain = translational kinetic energy + rotational kinetic energy

So, mgh = 1/2mv² + 1/2Iω² where m = mass of object = 2.0 kg, g =acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s², h = height of incline = 1.2 m, v = translational velocity of object, I = moment of inertia of object and ω = angular speed = v/r where r = radius of object.

i. translational speed of thin-walled cylinder upon reaching the bottom

So, For the thin-walled cylinder, I = mr², we find its translational velocity, v

So, mgh = 1/2mv² + 1/2Iω²

mgh = 1/2mv² + 1/2(mr²)(v/r)²

mgh = 1/2mv² + 1/2mv²

mgh = mv²

v² = gh

v = √gh

v = √(9.8 m/s² × 1.2 m)

v = √(11.76 m²/s²)

v = 3.43 m/s

ii. translational speed of solid cylinder upon reaching the bottom

So, For the solid cylinder, I = mr²/2, we find its translational velocity, v'

So, mgh = 1/2mv'² + 1/2Iω²

mgh = 1/2mv² + 1/2(mr²/2)(v'/r)²

mgh = 1/2mv'² + mv'²

mgh = 3mv'²/2

v'² = 2gh/3

v' = √(2gh/3)

v' = √(2 × 9.8 m/s² × 1.2 m/3)

v' = √(23.52 m²/s²/3)

v' = √(7.84 m²/s²)

v' = 2.8 m/s

b. Determine which cylinder has the greatest translational speed upon reaching the bottom.

Since v = 3.43 m/s > v'= 2.8 m/s,

the thin-walled cylinder has the greatest translational speed upon reaching the bottom.
