Use the concept of beat frequency to find the applicable final freqeuncy for 20Hz beat frequency.

Beat can be defined as 'the interference pattern between two sounds of slightly different frequencies0

The expression for beat frequency is given as

$f_{beat} = |f_1-f_2|$

Where,

$f_2 =$ Final frequency

$f_1 =$ Initial frequency

The beat frequency for us is 25Hz and the initial frequency is 240Hz, then

$20= |f_2-240|$

Being an absolute value, two values are possible, both in addition and subtraction:

$f_2 = 240 \pm 20$

The two possible values are

$f_2 = 220Hz$

$f_2 = 260Hz$

Water flows from a large drainage pipe at a rate of 950 gal/min. What is this volume rate of flow in (a) m3/s , (b) liters/min,

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

$0.05997\ m^3/s$

$3596.1395\ L/min$

$2.11647\ ft^3/s$

Explanation:

$1\ gal/min=\dfrac{1}{264\times 60}\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=950\times \dfrac{1}{264\times 60}\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=0.05997\ m^3/s$

Volume rate of flow is $0.05997\ m^3/s$

$1\ gal/min=3.78541\ L/min\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=950\times 3.78541=3596.1395\ L/min$

Volume rate of flow is $3596.1395\ L/min$

$1\ gal/min=\dfrac{1}{7.481\times 60}\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=950\times \dfrac{1}{7.481\times 60}\\\Rightarrow 950\ gal/min=2.11647\ ft^3/s$

Volume rate of flow is $2.11647\ ft^3/s$

Does heating a cup of water allow it to dissolve more sugar? Temperature of the water is measured in degrees Centigrade. Amount

mixas84 [53]

Yes heating water allows it to dissolve more Sugars because the molecular distance increases and this distance can be covered by more sugar. In the given question, The independent variable would be the temperature of water.

Since to whatever temperature the water boils at the boiling temperature of does not change remains hundred degree. Rest all the variables can vary the weight of the amount of sugar with the variable in the temperature of Boiling of water to remain constant.

An airplane accelerates from a speed of 88m/s to a speed of 132 m/s during a 15 second time interval. How far did the airplane t

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

$1650\:\mathrm{m}$

Explanation:

We can use the following kinematics equations to solve this problem:

$v_f=v_i+at,\\{v_f}^2={v_i}^2+2a\Delta x$ .

Using the first one to solve for acceleration:

$132=88+a(15),\\15a=44,\\a=\frac{44}{15}=2.9\bar{3}\:\mathrm{m/s^2}$ .

Now we can use the second equation to solve for the distance travelled by the airplane:

$132^2=88^2+2\cdot2.9\bar{3}\cdot \Delta x,\\\Delta x= \frac{9680}{2\cdot2.9\bar{3}},\\\Delta x =\fbox{$ 1650\:\mathrm{m}$}$ (three significant figures).
