Question

What is the length of the pipe?

Answer:

(a) 0.52m

(b) f2=640 Hz and f3=960 Hz

Explanation:

For an open pipe, the velocity is given by

$v=\frac {2Lf}{n}$

Making L the subject then

$L=\frac {nV}{2f}$

Where f is the frequency, L is the length, n is harmonic number, v is velocity

Substituting 1 for n, 320 Hz for f and 331 m/s for v then

$L=\frac {1*331}{2*320}=0.5171875\approx 0.52m$

(b)

The next two harmonics is given by

f2=2fi

f3=3fi

f2=3*320=640 Hz

f3=3*320=960 Hz

Alternatively, $f2=2\times \frac {v}{2L}$ and $f3=3\times \frac {v}{2L}$

$f2=2\times \frac {331}{2*0.52}=636.5 Hz\\f3=3\times \frac {331}{2*0.52}=954.8 Hz$

(c)

When v=367 m/s then

$f1= \frac {v}{2L}\\f1= \frac {367}{2*0.52}=352.9 Hz$

(a) Consider the initial-value problem dA/dt = kA, A(0) = A0 as the model for the decay of a radioactive substance. Show that, i

murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

a) $t = -\frac{ln(2)}{k}$

b) See the proof below

$A(t) = A_o 2^{-\frac{t}{T}}$

c) $t = 3T \frac{ln(2)}{ln(2)}= 3T$

Explanation:

Part a

For this case we have the following differential equation:

$\frac{dA}{dt}= kA$

With the initial condition $A(0) = A_o$

We can rewrite the differential equation like this:

$\frac{dA}{A} =k dt$

And if we integrate both sides we got:

$ln |A|= kt + c_1$

Where $c_1$ is a constant. If we apply exponential for both sides we got:

$A = e^{kt} e^c = C e^{kt}$

Using the initial condition $A(0) = A_o$ we got:

$A_o = C$

So then our solution for the differential equation is given by:

$A(t) = A_o e^{kt}$

For the half life we know that we need to find the value of t for where we have $A(t) = \frac{1}{2} A_o$ if we use this condition we have:

$\frac{1}{2} A_o = A_o e^{kt}$

$\frac{1}{2} = e^{kt}$

Applying natural log we have this:

$ln (\frac{1}{2}) = kt$

And then the value of t would be:

$t = \frac{ln (1/2)}{k}$

And using the fact that $ln(1/2) = -ln(2)$ we have this:

$t = -\frac{ln(2)}{k}$

Part b

For this case we need to show that the solution on part a can be written as:

$A(t) = A_o 2^{-t/T}$

For this case we have the following model:

$A(t) = A_o e^{kt}$

If we replace the value of k obtained from part a we got:

$k = -\frac{ln(2)}{T}$

$A(t) = A_o e^{-\frac{ln(2)}{T} t}$

And we can rewrite this expression like this:

$A(t) = A_o e^{ln(2) (-\frac{t}{T})}$

And we can cancel the exponential with the natural log and we have this:

$A(t) = A_o 2^{-\frac{t}{T}}$

Part c

For this case we want to find the value of t when we have remaining $\frac{A_o}{8}$

So we can use the following equation:

$\frac{A_o}{8}= A_o 2^{-\frac{t}{T}}$

Simplifying we got:

$\frac{1}{8} = 2^{-\frac{t}{T}}$

We can apply natural log on both sides and we got:

$ln(\frac{1}{8}) = -\frac{t}{T} ln(2)$

And if we solve for t we got:

$t = T \frac{ln(8)}{ln(2)}$

We can rewrite this expression like this:

$t = T \frac{ln(2^3)}{ln(2)}$

Using properties of natural logs we got:

$t = 3T \frac{ln(2)}{ln(2)}= 3T$
