Your answers for a), b), and c) are correct. Good work !
d). The high noise levels in Technology and PE are more of
a concern to the teachers than to the students because the
students are only in there for 1 or 2 periods a day, but the
Technology and PE teachers are in there ALL day.
e). Mr. Jones can't hear as high frequency as Jenny can because
he is much older than Jenny is. Sadly, even without damage due to
loud noise, the ability to hear high frequencies does decrease with age.
f). The wooden surfaces in the gym cause the gym to be louder
than it would be if it had carpet on the floor. Carpet ... and soft
walls and ceilings ... absorb a lot of the sound that hits them.
But hard surfaces don't absorb much of the sound that hits them,
so it just keeps bouncing around until it finally fades away.
You can see this easily ... just go into the gym at your school, clap
your hands once, and notice how long you keep hearing the sound
after you clap.
Answer:
1.31498 kg
0.72050 s
0.72050 s
Explanation:
m = Mass of block
g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
k = Spring constant = 100 N/M
x = Displacement = 0.129 m
The force balance is
The mass of the block is 1.31498 kg
Time period is given by
The period of oscillations is 0.72050 s
The time period does not depend on the acceleration due to gravity. It varies with the mass and the spring constant.
Hence, the time period would be the same
Answer:
V₂= 1 L
Explanation:
Given that
Volume occupies V₁= 6 L
Initial pressure = P₁
Initial temperature = T₁
The final pressure =P₂ = 2 P₁
Final volume =V₂
Final temperature = T₁/3
As we know that equation for ideal gas
P V = m R T
P=pressure, V=volume, T=temperature
m=mass ,R=gas constant
Now from mass conservation
6 = 3 x 2 V₂
V₂= 1 L
So the final volume will be 1 L
Basically, the temperature is a result of the average kinetic energy of all the atoms comprising the solid/liquid/gas. In solid, these atoms can just vibrate in place, leaving them to only be able to conduct and radiate heat. However, as you probably know liquids and solids take the shape of their container because the bonds between atoms are loose enough to allow them to freely move around. Due to each individual atom having its own energy, and these atoms being free to move about the liquid/gas they collide with other atoms in the substance. These collisions result in a transfer of energy. Finally, lower energy atoms "sink" and higher energy atoms "rise" thus creating a "convection current".
