<u>Answer:</u> The mirror that causes light to spread out is convex mirror

<u>Explanation:</u>

There are 2 types of spherical mirror:

Convex mirror is defined as the mirror which diverges the light falling on it. It is considered as a diverging mirror. They spread out the light falling on it.
Concave mirror is defined as the mirror which converges the light falling on it. It is considered as a converging mirror. They spread in the light falling on it.

Plane mirror is defined as the plane reflecting mirror. The image produced by it is virtual, upright and of the same size and shape as that of the object.

Hence, the mirror that causes light to spread out is convex mirror

kifflom [539]

Answer:

1.95 kg

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved.

m₁ u₁ + m₂ u₂ = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

0 = (74.9) (-0.215) + m (8.25)

m = 1.95

Two speakers, one directly behind the other, are each generating a 240-Hz sound wave. What is the smallest separation distance b

AveGali [126]

Answer:

The smallest separation distance between the speakers is 0.71 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Two speakers, one directly behind the other, are each generating a 240-Hz sound wave, f = 240 Hz

Let the speed of sound is 343 m/s in air. The speed of sound is given by the formula as :

$v=f\lambda\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{343\ m/s}{240\ Hz}\\\\\lambda=1.42\ m$

To produce destructive interference at a listener standing in front of them,

$d=\dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\d=\dfrac{1.42}{2}\\\\d=0.71\ m$

So, the smallest separation distance between the speakers is 0.71 m. Hence, this is the required solution.

frozen [14]

Answer:

a) $P_m=1.78\ Pa$

b) $f=79.5775\ Hz$

c) $\lambda=7.076\ m$

d) $v=563.06\ m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

<u>Given equation of pressure variation:</u>

$\Delta P= (1.78\ Pa)\ sin\ [(0.888\ m^{-1})x-(500\ s^{-1})t]$

We have the standard equation of periodic oscillations:

$\Delta P=P_m\ sin\ (kx-\omega.t)$

<em>By comparing, we deduce:</em>

(a)

amplitude:

$P_m=1.78\ Pa$

(b)

angular frequency:

$\omega=2\pi.f$

$2\pi.f=500$

∴Frequency of oscillations:

$f=\frac{500}{2\pi}$

$f=79.5775\ Hz$

(c)

wavelength is given by:

$\lambda=\frac{2\pi}{k}$

$\lambda=\frac{2\pi}{0.888}$

$\lambda=7.076\ m$

(d)

Speed of the wave is gives by:

$v=\frac{\omega}{k}$

$v=\frac{500}{0.888}$

$v=563.06\ m.s^{-1}$
