Two objects are maintained at constant temperatures, one hot and one cold. Two identical bars can be attached end to end, as in

part a of the drawing, or one on top of the other, as in part b. When either of these arrangements is placed between the hot and the cold objects for the same amount of time, heat Q flows from left to right. Find the ratio Qa/Qb.

Answer:

Qa/Qb = k/2×2k = 1/4

Explanation:

a situation is series and b situation is parallel.

let conductance of each plate = k

so net conductance in series = k/2

net conductance in parallel = 2k

so Qa/Qb = k/2×2k = 1/4

Two sound waves (speed 343 m/s) have different wavelengths. The first has a wavelength of 5.72 m, and the second a wavelength of
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The beat frequency is 30 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

velocity of the two sound waves, v = 343 m/s

wavelength of the first wave, λ₁ = 5.72 m

wavelength of the second wave, λ₂ = 11.44 m

The frequency of the first wave is calculated as follows;

F₁ = v/λ₁

F₁ = 343 / 5.72

F₁ = 59.97 HZ

The frequency of the second wave is calculated as follows;

F₂ = v/λ₂

F₂ = 343 / 11.44

F₂ = 29.98 Hz

The beat frequency is calculated as;

Fb = F₁ - F₂

Fb =  59.97 HZ - 29.98 Hz

Fb = 30 Hz
