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

The study of alternating electric current requires the solutions of equations of the form i equals Upper I Subscript max Baselin

KiRa [710]

Answer:

Explanation:

i = Imax sin2πft

given i = 180 , Imax = 200 , f = 50 , t = ?

Put the give values in the equation above

180 = 200 sin 2πft

sin 2πft = .9

sin2π x 50t = .9

sin 360 x 50 t = sin ( 360n + 64 )

360 x 50 t = 360n + 64

360 x 50 t = 64 , ( putting n = 0 for least value of t )

18000 t = 64

t = 3.55 ms .

You have a length of tubing that is closed at one end. You cut the tubing into two pieces of unequal length, giving you a tube o

umka21 [38]

Answer:

The funda mental frequency of the original tube is 182Hz.

Explanation:

See the attachment for the calculation steps.

In order to calculate the fundamental frequency of the original closed tube we need to find the length of the tube which is equal to the sum of the lengths of the two new tubes.

For closed tubes

f = nv/4L (n = 1, 3, 5,...n)

f = nv/2L (n = 1, 2, 3,...n)

The details of calculation can be found below in the attachment.

Calculate the work done by the cyclist when his power output is 200 W for 1800 seconds.

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

3.6 × 10^5 J

Explanation:

Work Done = Energy

Energy = Power × time

Energy = 200 × 1800

= 360000 J

W =

$3.6 \times 10 {}^{5} j$
