An aircraft maintenance technician walks past a tall hangar door that acts like a single slit for sound entering the hangar. Out
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

The first minimum would be observed at 41.57°

Explanation:

v = 340m/s = speed of sound

f = 610Hz

d = 0.840m

λ = ?

Mλ = wsinθ

m = mth order minima

λ = wavelength incident on the single slit

θ = angular position of the mth minima

But, λ = v / f

λ = 340 / 610 = 0.557m

θ = sin⁻(mλ/d)

θ = sin⁻ [(1 * 0.557) / 0.840]

θ = sin⁻ 0.6635

θ = 41.57°

The first minimum would be observed at 41.57°

A 5 kg box drops a distance of 10 m to the ground. If 70% of the initial potential energy goes into increasing the internal ener
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The initial PE (PE)_i = m×g×h

= 5 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 10 m

= 490.5 J

The change in Potential energy P.E of the box is:

ΔP.E = P.E_f -P.E_i

ΔP.E = 0 - (PE)_i

ΔP.E = -P.E_i

If we take a look at conservation of total energy for determining the change in the internal energy of the box;

\Delta P.E + \Delta K.E + \Delta U = 0

\Delta U = -\Delta P.E - \Delta K.E

this can be re-written as:

\Delta U =- (-\Delta P.E_i) - \Delta K.E

Here, K.E = 0

Also, 70% goes into raising the internal energy for the box;

Thus,

\Delta U =(70\%) \Delta P.E_i-0

\Delta U =(0.70) (490.5)

ΔU = 343.35  J

Thus, the magnitude of the increase is = 343.35 J

Select the correct answer. The motion of a car on a position-time graph is represented with a horizontal line. What does this in
enyata [817]

If the car's motion appears as a horizontal line on a <u><em>position-time </em></u>graph, it shows that as time changes, the car's position doesn't change.

This is just a complicated way to say that the car is <em>not moving</em>.<em> (A)</em>
