Two speakers separated by a distance of 4.40 m emit sound. The speakers have opposite phase. A person listens from a location 3.

Answer:

f = 147.21 Hz

Explanation:

In order to have a destructive interference, as the source emit in opposite phases, the path difference between the distance to the person, measured in a straight line from the speakers, must be equal to an integer number of wavelengths.

We need to know the distance from the listener to the other speaker, located 4.4 m from the one which is directly in front of him, which we can find using Pythagorean theorem, as follows:

l₂ = √(3)²+(4.4)² = 5.33 m

The difference in path will be, then:

d = l₂-l₁ = 5.33 m - 3.00 m = 2.33 m

For the lowest frequency that gives destructive interference, the wavelength will be highest possible, which happens when the distance is just one wavelength.

⇒ d = λ = 2.33 m

In any wave, there exists a fixed relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength, as follows:

v = λ*f Κ  ⇒ f = v/λ

Taking the speed of sound as 343 m/s, and solving for f, we get:

f= 343 m/s / 2.33 m = 147.21 Hz

A chicken crosses a 7.50 m wide road at a constant speed of 0.367 m/s. How much time does it take to cross (in seconds)?
mars1129 [50]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

= 20.436 seconds

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Speed = Distance × time

Therefore;

Time = Distance/speed

Distance = 7.50 m, speed = 0.367 m/s

Time = 7.50/0.367

         <u>= 20.436 seconds </u>

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

2) a_y= -g  3) vₓ=constant v_y = v_{oy} - g t, 4)  vₓ = v₀ₓ - ax t

5)  changes the horizontal speed, should change range

7) changes the vertical speed change the maximum height

Explanation:

1) After reading your long writing, we are going to solve the exercise, in the attachment you can see the different vectors.

2) The acceleration vectors are vertical and directed downwards due to the attraction of the Earth (gravity force) this force is constant, on the x axis there is no acceleration

3) the velocity vectors on the x-axis are constant because there are no relationships and the y-axis changes value according to the expression

           v_y = v_{oy} - gt

at the point of maximum height, vy = 0 is equal to the maximum height

4) For someone to change the horizontal acceleration we must assume a friction with the air, in this case they relate it would be in the opposite direction to the horizontal speed

In the graph it would be directed to the left, therefore the velocity would be

           vₓ = v₀ₓ - ax t

5 and 6) If someone changes the horizontal speed, they should change the range of the shot for greater horizontal speed, the rock goes further.

the equations of motion are

           x = v₀ₓ t

           y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

7) If someone changes the vertical speed change the maximum height, but not the scope of the shot, for higher speed higher maximum height,

the equations of motion are the same.
