Two loudspeakers are located 3.0 m apart on the stage of an auditorium. A listener at point P is seated 19.0 m from one speaker

and 15.0 m from the other. A signal generator drives the speakers in phase with the same amplitude and frequency. The wave amplitude at P due to each speaker alone is A. The frequency is then varied between 30 Hz and 400 Hz. The speed of sound is 343 m/s. At what frequency or frequencies will the listener at P hear a maximum intensity?

Answer:

The frequencies that the listener at P will hear a maximum intensity are: 85.75 Hz, 171.5 Hz, 257.25 Hz and 343 Hz.

Explanation:

Path Difference Δx is given as: nλ

where λ = \frac{v}{f}

Δx can be re-written as: n×\frac{v}{f}

where;

n = integer

v = speed of sound = 343 m/s

f = frequency

Δx  = 19.0 m - 15.0 m

Δx  = 4.0 m

4.0 m = \frac{n*343}{f}

f = \frac{n*343}{4}

f = n × 85.75 Hz

Now;  n = 1, 2, 3, 4 ; the frequencies that the listener at P will hear the maximum intensity will be

when n= 1

f = 1 × 85.75 Hz

f = 85.75 Hz

when n= 2

f = 2 × 85.75 Hz

f = 171.5 Hz

when n= 3

f = 3  × 85.75 Hz

f = 257.25 Hz

when n= 4

f = 4 × 85.75 Hz

f = 343 Hz

∴ the frequencies that the listener at P will hear the maximum intensity will be : 85.75 Hz, 171.5 Hz, 257.25 Hz and 343 Hz for n =1,2,3, and 4 respectively.

The reason for people to swim easier in salt water than fresh water is because of buoyancy

Explanation:

In fresh water there is lack of minerals and has fresh water alone. The density of fresh water is 1000 kg/m³.  Hence, in fresh water  cannot exert the suitable buoyancy for the swimmer to float easier than that of salt water.

But in Salt water due to enrichment of salts  and minerals it is found that salt water has more density than fresh water. Here the salt water offers more buoyancy to the swimmer to lift him up in the water surface and to swim faster and easier than fresh water.

It is similar to that egg floats in the salt water and sinks inside the fresh water because of its own body weight.
