If the wave represents a sound wave, explain how increasing amplitude will affect the loudness of the sound? If we decrease the

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Think of a sound wave like a wave on the ocean, or lake... It's not really water moving, as much as it's energy moving through the water. Ever see something floating on the water, and notice that it doesn't come in with the wave, but rides over the top and back down into the trough between them? Sound waves are very similar to that. If you looked at a subwoofer speaker being driven at say... 50 cycles a second, you'd actually be able to see the speaker cone moving back and forth. The more power you feed into the speaker, the more it moves back and forth, not more quickly, as that would be a higher frequency, but further in and further out, still at 50 cycles per second. Every time it pushed out, it's compressing the air in front of it... the compressed air moves away from the speaker's cone, but not as a breeze or wind, but as a wave through the air, similar to a wave on the ocean

More power, more amplitude, bigger "wave", louder ( to the human ear) sound.

If you had a big speaker ( subwoofer ) and ran a low frequency signal with enough power in it, you could hold a piece of paper in front of it, and see the piece of paper move in and out at exactly the same frequency as the speaker cone. The farther away from the speaker you got, the less it'd move as the energy of the sound wave dispersed through the room.

Sound is a wave

We hear because our eardrums resonates with this wave I.e. our ear drums will vibrate with the same frequency and amplitude. which is converted to an electrical signal and processed by our brain.

By increasing the amplitude our eardrums also vibrate with a higher amplitude which we experience as a louder sound.

Of course when this amplitude is too high the resulting resonance tears our eardrums so that they can't resonate with the sound wave I.e. we become deaf

A 40kg load is raised to a height of 25m. If the operation requires 1 min, find the power required

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

163.33 Watts

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) = 40 Kg

Height (h) = 25 m

Time (t) = 1 min

Power (P) =..?

Next, we shall determine the energy. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 40 Kg

Height (h) = 25 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Energy (E) =?

E = mgh

E = 40 × 9.8 × 255

E = 9800 J

Finally, we shall determine the power. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

Time (t) = 1 min = 60 s

Energy (E) = 9800 J

Power (P) =?

P = E/t

P = 9800 / 60

P = 163.33 Watts

Thus, the power required is 163.33 Watts

A uniform marble rolls down a symmetrical bowl, start- ing from rest at the top of the left side. The top of each side is a dist

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Part a)

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

Part b)

if both sides are rough then it will reach the same height on the other side because the energy is being conserved.

Part c)

Since marble will go to same height when it is rough while when it is smooth then it will go to the height

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

so on smooth it will go to lower height

Explanation:

As we know by energy conservation the total energy at the bottom of the bowl is given as

$\frac{1}{2} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 = mgh$

here we know that on the left side the ball is rolling due to which it is having rotational and transnational both kinetic energy

now on the right side of the bowl there is no friction

so its rotational kinetic energy will not change and remains the same

so it will have

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh'$

now we know that

$I = \frac{2}{5}mr^2$

$\omega = \frac{v}{r}$

so we have

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mr^2)(\frac{v}{r})^2 = mgh$

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{5}mv^2 = mgh$

$\frac{7}{10}mv^2 = mgh$

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{10}{14}mgh$

so the height on the smooth side is given as

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

Part b)

if both sides are rough then it will reach the same height on the other side because the energy is being conserved.

Part c)

Since marble will go to same height when it is rough while when it is smooth then it will go to the height

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

so on smooth it will go to lower height

algol13

Answer:

Maximum Tension=224N

Minimum tension= 64N

Explanation:

Given

mass =8 kg

constant speed = 6m/s .

g=10m/s^2

Maximum Tension= [(mv^2/ r) + (mg)]

Minimum tension= [(mv^2/ r) - (mg)]

Then substitute the values,

Maximum Tension= [8 × 6^2)/2 +(8×9.8)] = 224N

Minimum tension= [8 × 6^2)/2 -(8×9.8)]

=64N

Hence, Minimum tension and maximum Tension are =64N and 2224N respectively
