er stands at X, 4 m in front of one speaker. If the amplitudes are not changed, the sound he hears will be least intense if the wavelength is:
a. 1 m
b. 2 m
c. 3 m
d. 4 m
e. 5 m

Answer:

b. 2 m

Explanation:

Given that:

the identical speakers are connected in phases ;

Let assume ; we have speaker A and speaker B which are = 3 meter apart

An observer stands at X = 4m in front of one speaker.

If the amplitudes are not changed, the sound he hears will be least intense if the wavelength is: <u>                  </u>

From above;  the distance between speaker  A and speaker B can be expressed as:

\sqrt{3^2 + 4^2 } \\ \\ =  \sqrt{9+16 } \\ \\ = \sqrt{25}  \\ \\ = 5 \ m

The path length difference  will now be:

= 5 m - 4 m

= 1 m

Since , we are to determine the least intense sound; the destructive interference for that path length  will be half the wavelength; which is

= \dfrac{1}{2}*4 \ m

= 2 m

QUESTION 2 DOK 3 A Thompson's gazelle has a maximum acceleration of 4.5 m/s2 At this acceleration, how much time is required for
Dominik [7]

Answer:

2.47 s

Explanation:

Convert the final velocity to m/s.

  • 40 km/h → 11.1111 m/s

We have the acceleration of the gazelle, 4.5 m/s².

We can assume the gazelle starts at an initial velocity of 0 m/s in order to determine how much time it requires to reach a final velocity of 11.1111 m/s.

We want to find the time t.

Find the constant acceleration equation that contains all four of these variables.

  • v = v₀ + at

Substitute the known values into the equation.

  • 11.1111 = 0 + (4.5)t
  • 11.1111 = 4.5t
  • t = 2.469133333

The Thompson's gazelle requires a time of 2.47 s to reach a speed of 40 km/h (11.1111 m/s).

Which missing item would complete this beta decay reaction?
Flauer [41]
For us to understand the missing item that would complete beta decay reaction, we need to achieve in depth understanding of chemical formulas and nuclear symbols. Next is to have great comprehension of the following points:
<span>1.) Neutron in nucleus breaks down and changes into a proton.
2) Then it emits an electron, as well as an anti-neutrino which go into space.
3) Lastly, atomic number continuously goes UP while mass number remains unchanged.</span>
