In noisy factory environments, it's possible to use a loudspeaker to cancel persistent low-frequency machine noise at the positi

on of one worker. The details of practical systems are complex, but we can present a simple example that gives you the idea. Suppose a machine 5.5 m away from a worker emits a persistent 90 Hz hum. To cancel the sound at the worker's location with a speaker that exactly duplicates the machine's hum, how far from the worker should the speaker be placed? Assume a sound speed of 340 m/s.

Answer:

7.39 m or 3.61 m

Explanation:

\lambda = Wavelength

f = Frequency = 90 Hz

v = Speed of sound = 340 m/s

Path difference of the two waves is given by

s_1-s_2=\frac{\lambda}{2}

Velocity of wave

v=f\lambda\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\frac{340}{90}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=3.78\ m

s_1=s_2\pm\frac{\lambda}{2}\\\Rightarrow s_1=5.5\pm \frac{3.78}{2}\\\Rightarrow s_1=7.39\ m, 3.61\ m

So, the location from the worker is 7.39 m or 3.61 m

A rock is stuck deep in the dirt. When you pull on the rock to remove it, what type of force are you exerting?
aleksandrvk [35]
It is Tension as the other 3 answer choices would not make sense. Compression would mean you are pressing the rock on both sides or in this case, pushing it into the dirt. It can't be nuclear force as you are pulling out a rock. Air resistance would not make sense either as there is no air involved in the scenario at all.

What is induced current​
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

A current can be induced in a conducting loop if it is exposed to a changing magnetic field. ... In other words, if the applied magnetic field is increasing, the current in the wire will flow in such a way that the magnetic field that it generates around the wire will decrease the applied magnetic field.
