<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Diffract

Sound waves generated in a classroom must <em><u>diffract</u></em> through an open doorway in order to propagate into the hallway.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Sound waves are a type of mechanical waves that requires a material medium for transmission,</u></em> they are longitudinal wave with all the properties of other waves.
  • <em><u>Diffraction is one of the property of waves that involves a change in direction of waves as they pass through an opening or around a barrier in their path. </u></em><u><em>Sound wave diffract around corners or through the door openings, allowing people to hear others speaking to us from rooms that are adjacent. </em></u>

I really need help with the graphs
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

t = 2s

Explanation:

When you're looking for instantaneous portions of a graph, of any sort really, it means you're observing a rate at a single point in time [or possibly some other variable]. It's sorta like a snapshot of a rate as opposed to an average rate over an interval. After choosing this rate we'll typically draw a straight, tangent line through it to indicate it's slope. (Tangent lines are just lines that only touch a single point on a graph or shape.)

Another thing to take note of are the values of the graph's major axes. The "y-axis" corresponds to velocity in meters per second, while the "x-axis" corresponds to time in seconds. Normally when relating the two we put "y" over the "x" and say that at any point there are "y[units]" per "x[units]". Though with instantaneous rates, we say the value of "x" is "1"; for reasons I can try to further explain later if you'd like.

With the above information in mind we can turn our attention to your graph. You're told to find the point on this graph where the instantaneous rate of acceleration is -2 m/s². The only place where the graph reflects an instantaneous rate of -2m/s² is at t = 2s. At t = 2, the rate comes out to (2[m/s]/1s), which simplifies to 2m/s². If you then draw the tangent line through the point, you'll find that the line is decreasing (going down from left to right) which means that the instantaneous rate is negative.

So at t = 2s, we have an instantaneous acceleration of -2m/s².

A water tower is idealized as a mass M on top of a uniform and massless beam. The bottom end of the beam is fixed to the ground.
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Natural frequency=21.40 Hz

Time= 0.2936 seconds

Explanation:

Idealizing the question as a cantilever beam with point load of mass M as 20 tons

Lateral stiffness, k=\frac {3EI}{l^{3}} where l is length given as 10 m, E is Young’s modulus given as 30GPa and I is inertia where for a circular cross-section is given by \frac {\pi d^{4}}{64}

k=\frac {3*(30*10^{9})*(\pi *1.2^{4})}{64*10^{3}}= 9160884.178

k= 9.160884178*10^{6}

To find the frequency, w_{n}, the mass m is given as 20 tons or 20000 Kg

w_{n}=\sqrt (\frac {k}{m})= \sqrt (\frac {9.160884178*10^{6}}{20000})=21.40196741 Hz

Natural frequency=21.40 Hz

Time period,

T=\frac {2\pi}{w_{n}}=\frac {2\pi}{21.40196741}=0.2935798 seconds

T=0.2936 seconds

Most cars today use an ___ combustion engine ...<br> A. internal <br> B. external
Greeley [361]

A. Internal. Most cars use that type of set up because it's more efficient, you can find more about it on this website, https://auto.howstuffworks.com/did-cars-ever-have-external-combustion-engines.htm

Calculate the work done by a 50.0 N force on an object as it moves 9.00 m, if the force is oriented at an angle of 135° from the
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Work done, W = -318.19 Joules

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting on the object, F = 50 N

Distance covered by the force, d = 9 m

Angle between the force and the distance traveled, \theta=135^{\circ}

The work done by an object is equal to the product of force and distance traveled. It is equal to the dot product of force and the distance. Mathematically, it is given by :

W=Fd\ cos\theta

W=50\times 9\times \ cos(135)

W = -318.19 Joules

So, the work done by the force is 318.19 Joules. The work is done in opposite to the direction of motion. Hence, this is the required solution.

A droplet of pure mercury has a density of 13.6 g/cm3. What is the density of a sample of pure mercury that is 10 times as large
luda_lava [24]
A droplet of pure mercury has a density of 13.6 g/cm3. What is the density of a sample of pure mercury that is 10 times as large as the droplet?

Answer: In this case the density will remain constant for both droplets. The reason being that volume will not change the density of the material. The only way of changing it is by changing its state. If you increase the volume then the mass will also increase. Leaving the density the same.

I hope it helps, Regards.
