I'll just find out the path difference between the waves at the starting point. At infinity, the path difference will be zero because the observer will be infinitely far away from both. As the observer goes farther, the path difference keeps reducing till it reaches zero as the observer reaches infinity. 
<span>Path difference at starting point = Distance from lower speaker - Distance from upper speaker = √((3)² + (2.5)²) - 2.5 = 1.405 m </span>
<span>Now to find wavelength. </span>
<span>Speed of sound in air at 20 degrees C = 343 m/s </span>
<span>Wavelength = 343 / 686 = 0.5 m </span>
<span>Destructive interference occurs when path difference = (2n + 1)λ/2 where n is an integer. </span>
<span>Maximum n possible can be found by, </span>
<span>(2n + 1)λ/2 < 1.405 </span>
<span>(2n + 1) < (1.4)(2) / (0.5) </span>
<span>2n < 5.6 - 1 </span>
<span>2n < 4.6 </span>
<span>n < 2.3 </span>
<span>So, we have 3 values of n, 0, 1 and 2. </span>
<span>Path differences are, λ/2, 3λ/2 and 5λ/2 which have values 0.25 m , 0.75 m and 1.25 m </span>
<span>But the question asks for distance from starting point. (sheesh!!) </span>
<span>Lets say the observer walked x distance. </span>
<span>Path difference = √((3)² + (2.5 + x)²) - (2.5 + x) </span>
<span>Equate this expression to the values obtained above to get the different values of x. </span>

Two waiters are trying to get through a single door of a kitchen. One pushes on one side of a door 0.567 m from the hinge with a
NISA [10]

Answer:

275.5 N

Explanation:

F_{1} = Force on one side of the door by first waiter = 257 N

F_{2} = Force on other side of the door by second waiter

r_{1} = distance of first force by first waiter from hinge = 0.567 m

r_{2} = distance of second force by second waiter from hinge = 0.529 m

Since the door does not move. hence the door is in equilibrium

Using equilibrium of torque by force applied by each waiter

r_{1} F_{1} = r_{2} F_{2} \\(0.567) (257) = (0.529) F_{2}\\F_{2} = 275.5 N

What could be the possible answer to the question ?<br><br>thankyou ~​
Ganezh [65]

The value of the force, F₀, at equilibrium is equal to the horizontal

component of the tension in string 2.

Response:

  • The value of F₀ so that string 1 remains vertical is approximately <u>0.377·M·g</u>

<h3>How can the equilibrium of forces be used to find the value of F₀?</h3>

Given:

The weight of the rod = The sum of the vertical forces in the strings

Therefore;

M·g = T₂·cos(37°) + T₁

The weight of the rod is at the middle.

Taking moment about point (2) gives;

M·g × L = T₁ × 2·L

Therefore;

T_1 = \mathbf{\dfrac{M \cdot g}{2}}

Which gives;

M \cdot g = \mathbf{T_2 \cdot cos(37 ^{\circ})+ \dfrac{M \cdot g}{2}}

T_2 = \dfrac{M \cdot g - \dfrac{M \cdot g}{2}}{cos(37 ^{\circ})}  = \mathbf{\dfrac{M \cdot g}{2 \cdot cos(37 ^{\circ})}}}

F₀ = T₂·sin(37°)

Which gives;

F_0 = \dfrac{M \cdot g \cdot sin(37 ^{\circ})}{2 \cdot cos(37 ^{\circ})}} = \dfrac{M \cdot g \cdot tan(37 ^{\circ})}{2}  \approx  \mathbf{0.377  \cdot M \cdot g}

  • F₀ ≈ <u>0.377·M·g</u>

A grating whose slits are 3.2x10^-4 cm apart produces a third-order fringe at a 25.°0 angle. What is the wavelength of light tha
Ber [7]

Answer:

The light used has a wavelenght of 4.51×10^-7 m.

Explanation:

let:

n be the order fringe

Ф be the angle that the light makes

d is the slit spacing of the grating

λ be the wavelength of the light

then, by Bragg's law:

n×λ = d×sin(Ф)

λ = d×sin(Ф)/n

λ = (3.2×10^-4 cm)×sin(25.0°)/3

  = 4.51×10^-5 cm

  ≈ 4.51×10^-7 m

Therefore, the light used has a wavelenght of 4.51×10^-7 m.

A high school bus travels 240 km in 6.0 h. What is its average speed for the trip? (in km/h).
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

40 km/h

Explanation:

First...

Look at the formula speed is equal to the distance over time or s = d/t.

Next...

Use the formula: 240/6.0

Finally...

Solve: 40

So the answer: 40 km/h

Three-fourths of the area of a rectangular lawn 30 feet wide by 40 feet long is to be enclosed by a rectangular fence. If the en
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The fence is 5feet less.

Explanation:

We need to determine

The less amount of fence required, if the enclosure has full width and reduced length, compared to full length and reduced width.

Approach & WorkingArea of lawn = 30 × 403/4th of the area of lawn = ¾(30 × 40) = 30 * 30

 When full width will be fenced, and reduced length will be fenced.

Width = 30 feet30 * L = 30 * 30Hence, length = 30 feetLength of fence needed = 2(30 + 30) = 120 feet

When full length will be fenced, and reduced width will be fenced

Length = 40 feet40 * W = 30 * 30W = 22.5 feetLength of fence needed = 2(40 + 22.5) = 125 feet

Difference in length of fence needed = 125 – 120 = 5 feet.
