Two identical loudspeakers 2.00 m apart are emitting sound waves into a room where the speed of sound is 340 m/s. Abby is standi
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

242.85 Hz

Explanation:

For maximum intensity of sound, the path difference,ΔL = (n + 1/2)λ/2 where n = 0,1,2...

Since Abby is standing perpendicular to one speaker, the path length for the sound from the other speaker to him is L₁ = √(2.00² + 5.50²) = √(4.00 + 30.25) = √34.25 = 5.85 m.

The path difference to him is thus ΔL = 5.85 m - 5.50 m = 0.35 m.

Since ΔL = (n + 1/2)λ/2 and for lowest frequency n = 0,

ΔL = (n + 1/2)λ/2 = (0 + 1/2)λ/2 = λ/4

ΔL = λ = v/f and f = v/4ΔL where f = frequency of wave and v = velocity of sound wave = 340 m/s.

f = 340/(4 × 0.35) = 242.85 Hz

An air-track glider undergoes a perfectly inelastic collision with an identical glider that is initially at rest. what fraction
Allisa [31]

In this collision, 1/2 of the initial kinetic energy of the first glider is converted into thermal energy.

<h3>In plain English, what is kinetic energy?</h3>

An object's strength as a result ofstrength an object has as a result or motion is known as kinetic energy. Toorder to accelerate an object, a force must be applied. Applying force requires effort on our part. When the work is done, power is transported to the thing, which causes it to move at the athe new, constant pace.

<h3>What does kinetic energy mean, or what are some instances?</h3>

The motion energy is known as kinetic energy, and it is manifested when a particle, object, or group if particles moves. Any moving object uses kinetic energy, including people walking, baseballs being thrown, food falling from tables, and charged particles in electric fields.
