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

polet [3.4K]
Here is the answer to the given question above. If Angela has been feeling fatigued and a test is used to check the basal metabolic rate and revealed that she has a low metabolic rate, therefore, the possible diagnosis for Angela would be HYPOTHYROIDISM. <span>The BMR test works by precisely measuring the amount of oxygen that you consume when your body is basal, or completely at rest. Hope this answers your question.</span>

Suppose that a person gets hit by a bus moving at 30 mi/h with a 58,000 lbs of force in the direction of motion. If the mass of
alexandr402 [8]

The impulse of a force is due to the change in the motion of an object

A. The persons speed after impact is approximately 59.38 mi/h

B. The expected speed is <u>29.89 mi/h</u> which is less than the findings

Reason:

Known parameters are;

The speed of the bus, v = 30 mi/h

The force with which the person was hit, F = 58,000 lbs

Mass of the bus, M = 40,000 lbs

Mass of the person, m = 150 lbs

Duration of the impact, Δt = 0.007 seconds

A. The speed of the person at the end of the impact, <em>v</em>, is given as follows;

The impulse of the force = F × Δt = m × Δv

For the person, we get;

58,000 lbf ≈ 1866094.816 lb·ft./s²

58,000 lbf × 0.007 s = 150 lbs × Δv

1,866,094.816 lb·ft./s²

\Delta v = \dfrac{1,866,094.816\ lbs \times 0.007 \, s}{150 \, lbs} \approx  87.084  \ ft./s

Δv = v₂ - v₁

The initial speed of the person at the instant, can be as v₁ = 0

The final speed, v₂ = Δv - v₁

∴ v₂ ≈  87.084 ft./s - 0 = 87.084 ft./s

≈ <u>87.084 ft./s</u>

<u />v_2 \approx \dfrac{87.084 \ ft./s}{y} \times\dfrac{1 \ mi}{5280 \ ft.} \times \dfrac{3,600 \ s}{1 \, hour} \approx 59.38 \ mi/h<u />

The speed of the person at the end of the impact, v₂ ≈ <u>59.38 mi/h</u>

B. Where the momentum is conserved, we have;

m₁·v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)·v

v = \dfrac{m_1 \cdot v_1 + m_2 \cdot v_2}{m_2 + m_1}

v = \dfrac{40,000 \times 30  + 150 \times 0}{40,000 + 150} \approx 29.89

The expected speed of the person at the end of the impact is 29.89 mi/h, and therefore, <u>the findings does not agree with the expectation</u>

In a fireworks display, a rocket is launched from the ground with a speed of 18.0 m/s and a direction of 51.0° above the horizon
Masja [62]

Answer:38.66 m

Explanation:

Given

launch angle \theta =51^{\circ}

launch velocity u=18 m/s

center of mass continue to travel its original Path so it center of mass will be at a distance of

R=\frac{u^2\sin 2\theta }{g}

R=\frac{18^2\sin 102}{9.8}

R=32.33 m

Center of mass will be at x=32.33 m

(b)if one of the piece will be at x=26  m then other will be at

x_{com}=\frac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2}{m_1+m_2}

x_{com}=\frac{\frac{m}{2}\cdot 26+\frac{m}{2}\cdot x_0}{\frac{m}{2}+\frac{m}{2}}

32.33=\frac{26+x_0}{2}

x_0=38.66 m
