What Converts sound to a signal in a telephone

1 answer:

6 0

The part you talk into, that converts the sound of your voice
into an electrical signal, is a tiny microphone.

-- The sound waves from your voice are ripples in the air.

-- In most microphones, there's a tiny coil of wire hanging
between the ends of a tiny magnet.

-- When the ripples in the air hit the little coil of wire, they
make it vibrate (wiggle) slightly.

-- When a coil of wire wiggles in the field of a magnet,
a current flows in the wire.

There's your electrical signal !

A ball is thrown straight up from ground level. It passes a 2-m-high window. The bottom of the window is 7.5 m off the ground. T

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

$u=14.48m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height of window $h=2m$

Height of window off the ground $h_g=7.5m$

Time to fall and drop $t=1.3s$

Generally the Newton's equation motion is mathematically given by

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

Where

$h=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

$2=u1.3-\frac{1}{2}*9.8*1.3^2$

$2=u1.3-8.281$

$u=7.91m/s^2$

Generally the Newton's equation motion is mathematically given by

$2as=v^2-u^2$

Where

$-2gh_g=v^2-u^2$

$-2*9.8*7.5=(7.91)^2-u^2$

$-147=62.5681-u^2$

$u=\sqrt{209.5681}$

$u=14.48m/s$

Therefore the ball’s initial speed

$u=14.48m/s$

True or false, the hardest working muscle in the body is the gluteus Maximus?

A wrench is accidentally dropped from the top of a mast on a sailboat. Will the wrench hit at the same place on the deck whether

alekssr [168]

Answer:

Yes, because the wrench is moving at the same speed as the sailboat.

The main difference is that a person on the ground would see the wrench moving diagonally, while a person on the boat would see the wrench falling straight down,

This difference in paths lead to the relativistic change in lengths.

A roller coaster car is loaded with passengers and has a mass of 500 kg along with a speed of 18 meters/second at the dip. The r

GenaCL600 [577]

The roller coaster is moving in a circular path, so the force that must be computed is the centripetal force. The centripetal force is the force acting on an object undergoing circular motion and is directed towards the center of the circular path. This is computed using:
F = mv²/r
F = (500 * 18²) / 12
F = 13,500 N

Now, at the bottom of the track, the track is also supporting the weight of the car and its passengers, which is:
W = mg
W = 500 * 9.81
W = 4,905 N

The total reactive force exerted by the track to counter the centripetal force and the weight of the car is:
F = 13,500 + 4,905
F = 18,405 Newtons

Andy is waiting at the signal. As soon as the light turns green, he accelerates his car at a uniform rate of 8.00 meters/second2

sleet_krkn [62]

-- Accelerating at the rate of 8 m/s², Andy's speed
   after 30 seconds is

   (8 m/s²) x (30.0 s) = 240 m/s .

-- His average speed during that time is

   (1/2) (0 + 240 m/s) = 120 m/s .

-- In 30 sec at an average speed of 120 m/s,
   Andy will travel a distance of
   (120 m/s) x (30 sec) = 3,600 m

    = 3.6 km .

"But how ? ! ?", you ask.

How in the world can Andy leave a stop light and then
cover 3.6 km = 2.24 miles in the next 30 seconds ?

The answer is: His acceleration of 8 m/s², or about 0.82 G
is what does it for him.

At that rate of acceleration ...

-- Andy achieves "Zero to 60 mph" in 3.35 seconds,
   and then he keeps accelerating.

-- He hits 100 mph in 5.59 seconds after jumping the light ...
   and then he keeps accelerating.

-- He hits 200 mph in 11.2 seconds after jumping the light ...
   and then he keeps accelerating.

-- After accelerating at 8 m/s² for 30 seconds, Andy and his
   car are moving at 537 miles per hour !
   We really don't know whether he keeps accelerating,
    but we kind of doubt it.

A couple of observations in conclusion:

-- We can't actually calculate his displacement with the information given.
   Displacement is the distance and direction between the starting- and
   ending-points, and we're not told whether Andy maintains a straight line
   during this tense period, or is all over the road, adding great distance
   but not a lot of displacement.

-- It's also likely that sometime during this performance, he is pulled
   over to the side by an alert cop in a traffic-control helicopter, and
   never actually succeeds in accomplishing the given description.
