Density is the best property to use, as while multiple different metals could create cubes with the same color, mass, or volume, no different metal could create a cube with the same mass and volume. Density is based on mass and volume, and as a result no two different metals will have the same density.
Answer:
31.831 Hz.
Explanation:
<u>Given:</u>
The vertical displacement of a wave is given in generalized form as

<em>where</em>,
- A = amplitude of the displacement of the wave.
- k = wave number of the wave =

= wavelength of the wave.- x = horizontal displacement of the wave.
= angular frequency of the wave =
.- f = frequency of the wave.
- t = time at which the displacement is calculated.
On comparing the generalized equation with the given equation of the displacement of the wave, we get,

therefore,

It is the required frequency of the wave.
<u>Answer :</u>
(a) d = 0.25 m
(b) d = 0.5 m
<u>Explanation :</u>
It is given that,
Frequency of sound waves, f = 686 Hz
Speed of sound wave at
is, v = 343 m/s
(1) Perfectly destructive interference occurs when the path difference is half integral multiple of wavelength i.e.
........(1)
Velocity of sound wave is given by :




Hence, when the speakers are in phase the smallest distance between the speakers for which the interference of the sound waves is perfectly destructive is 0.25 m.
(2) For constructive interference, the path difference is integral multiple of wavelengths i.e.
( n = integers )
Let n = 1
So, 


Hence, the smallest distance between the speakers for which the interference of the sound waves is maximum constructive is 0.5 m.
We know the formulas for momentum and energy. But they both involve the mass of
the object, and we don't know the mass of the baseball. What can we do ?
It's not a catastrophe. The question only asks which one is bigger. If we're clever,
we can answer that without ever knowing how much the momentum or the energy
actually is. We know that both baseballs have the same mass, so let's just call it
' M ' and not worry about what it really is.
<u>Momentum of anything = (mass) x (speed)</u>
Momentum of the first baseball = (M) x (4 m/s) = 4M
Momentum of the second one = (M) x (16 m/s) = 16M
The second baseball has 4 times as much momentum as the first one has.
<u>Kinetic energy of anything = 1/2 (mass) x (speed squared)</u>
KE of the first baseball = 1/2 (M) x (4 squared) = 8M
KE of the second one = 1/2 (M) x (16 squared) = 128M
The second baseball has 16 times as much kinetic energy as the first one has.
