Frequency can be defined as the ratio between the speed of the wave and its wavelength, that is

f= \frac{v}{\lambda}

At the same time, the frequency is the inverse of the Period so

T = \frac{1}{f}

If we join the two expressions we will have to

T = \frac{\lambda}{v}

Replacing we have that

T = \frac{4.9*10^{-2}}{1522}

T = 3.219*10^{-5} s

Therefore the period of the wave is 3.219*10^{-5} s

A solenoid has a radius Rs = 14.0 cm, length L = 3.50 m, and Ns = 6500 turns. The current in the solenoid decreases at the rate
babymother [125]

Answer:

E = 58.7 V/m

Explanation:

As we know that flux linked with the coil is given as

\phi = NBA

here we have

A = \pi R_s^2

B = \mu_o N i/L

now we have

\phi = N(\mu_o N i/L)(\pi R_s^2)

now the induced EMF is rate of change in magnetic flux

EMF = \frac{d\phi}{dt} = \mu_o N^2 \pi R_s^2 \frac{di}{dt}/L

now for induced electric field in the coil is linked with the EMF as

\int E. dL = EMF

E(2\pi r_c) = \mu_o N^2 \pi R_s^2 \frac{di}{dt}/L

E = \frac{\mu_o N^2 R_s^2 \frac{di}{dt}}{2 r_c L}

E = \frac{(4\pi \times 10^{-7})(6500^2)(0.14^2)(79)}{2(0.20)(3.50)}

E = 58.7 V/m

An infinite sheet of charge, oriented perpendicular to the x-axis, passes through x = 0. It has a surface charge density σ1 = -2
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

E_{total}=4.82*10^6N/C

vector with direction equal to the axis X.

Explanation:

We use the Gauss Law and the superposition law in order to solve this problem.

<u>Superposition Law:</u> the Total Electric field is the sum of the electric field of the first infinite sheet and the Electric field of the second infinite sheet:

E_{total}=E_1+E_2

<u>Thanks Gauss Law</u> we know that the electric field of a infinite sheet with density of charge σ is:

E=\sigma/(2\epsilon_o)

Then:

E_{total}=(\sigma_1+\sigma_2)/(2\epsilon_o)=(-2.7*10^{-6}+88*10^{-6})/(2*8.85*10^{-12})=4.82*10^6N/C

This electric field has a direction in the axis perpendicular to the sheets, that means it has the same direction as the axis X.

The two speakers at S1 and S2 are adjusted so that the observer at O hears an intensity of 6 W/m² when either S1 or S2 is sounde
Zanzabum

Answer:

The minimum frequency is 702.22 Hz

Explanation:

The two speakers are adjusted as attached in the figure. From the given data we know that

S_1 S_2=3m

S_1 O=4m

By Pythagoras theorem

                                 S_2O=\sqrt{(S_1S_2)^2+(S_1O)^2}\\S_2O=\sqrt{(3)^2+(4)^2}\\S_2O=\sqrt{9+16}\\S_2O=\sqrt{25}\\S_2O=5m

Now

The intensity at O when both speakers are on is given by

I=4I_1 cos^2(\pi \frac{\delta}{\lambda})

Here

  • I is the intensity at O when both speakers are on which is given as 6 W/m^2
  • I1 is the intensity of one speaker on which is 6  W/m^2
  • δ is the Path difference which is given as

                                           \delta=S_2O-S_1O\\\delta=5-4\\\delta=1 m

  • λ is wavelength which is given as

                                             \lambda=\frac{v}{f}

      Here

              v is the speed of sound which is 320 m/s.

              f is the frequency of the sound which is to be calculated.

                                  16=4\times 6 \times cos^2(\pi \frac{1 \times f}{320})\\16/24= cos^2(\pi \frac{1f}{320})\\0.667= cos^2(\pi \frac{f}{320})\\cos(\pi \frac{f}{320})=\pm0.8165\\\pi \frac{f}{320}=\frac{7 \pi}{36}+2k\pi \\ \frac{f}{320}=\frac{7 }{36}+2k \\\\ {f}=320 \times (\frac{7 }{36}+2k )

where k=0,1,2

for minimum frequency f_1, k=1

                                  {f}=320 \times (\frac{7 }{36}+2 \times 1 )\\\\{f}=320 \times (\frac{79 }{36} )\\\\ f=702.22 Hz

So the minimum frequency is 702.22 Hz

A 8.34 × 103-kg lunar landing craft is about to touch down on the surface of the moon, where the acceleration due to gravity is
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

21870.3156 N

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 1.6 m/s²

Equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-18.2^2}{2\times 162}\\\Rightarrow a=-1.02234\ m/s^2

The acceleration of the craft should be 1.02234 m/s²

F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=8.34\times 10^3\times 1.02234\\\Rightarrow F=8526.3156\ N

Weight of the craft

W=mg\\\Rightarrow W=8.34\times 10^3\times 1.6\\\Rightarrow W=13344\ N

Thrust

F_t=F+W\\\Rightarrow F_t=8526.3156+13344\\\Rightarrow F_t=21870.3156\ N

The thrust needed to reduce the velocity to zero at the instant when the craft touches the lunar surface is 21870.3156 N
