Determine the speed of sound in air at 300 K. Also determine the Mach number of an aircraft moving in the air at a velocity of 3
amm1812

Answer:

c_3_0_0_K=347.19m/s

M=0.864

Explanation:

The speed of sound in the air increases 0.6 m / s for every 1 ° C increase in temperature.  An approximate speed can be calculated using the following empirical formula:

c=331.5+0.6\vartheta

Where:

\vartheta=T-273.15K\\\\

A more exact equation, usually referred to as adiabatic velocity of sound, is given by the following formula:

c=\sqrt{k*R*T}

Where:

R= Gas\hspace{3}constant\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}air=0.287kJ/kg*K=287J/kg*K\\k=Specific\hspace{3}heat\hspace{3}ratio=1.4\\T=Temperature=300K

Hence:

c=\sqrt{(287)*(1.4)*(300)} =347.1887095\approx347.19m/s

Now, the Mach number at which an aircraft is flying can be calculated by:

M=\frac{u}{c}

Where:

u= Velocity\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}moving\hspace{3}aircraft\\c= Speed\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}sound\hspace{3}at\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}given \hspace{3}altitude

Therefore:

M=\frac{300}{347.19} =0.8640833984\approx0.864

Which equations represent the relationship between wavelength and frequency for a sounds wave
ioda

   

Waves can be described using a number of different characteristics of a wave. Wavelength and frequency are two such characteristics. The relationship between wavelength and frequency is that the frequency of a wave multiplied by its wavelength gives the speed of the wave

A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 32 feet per second. Its height, h, in feet after t
LekaFEV [45]
Differentiate the expression, to obtain expression for velocity. Set velocity to 0, this when max height is reached. Obtain the tmax from that expression.

<span>h(t) = –16t² + 32t + 6
</span><span>h'(t) = –32t² + 32
0 = </span>–32t² + 32
t max= 1

hmax = <span> –16(1)² + 32(1) + 6
hmax = 22

Therefore, first option is the correct answer.</span>
