A speaker is designed for wide dispersion for a high frequency sound. What should the diameter of the circular opening be for a

speaker where the desired diffraction angle is 11° and a 9100 Hz sound is generated? The speed of sound is 343 m/s.

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to wavelength, as well as Rayleigh's Criterion or Optical resolution, the optical limit due to diffraction can be calculated empirically from the following relationship,

sin\theta = 1.22\frac{\lambda}{d}

Here,

\lambda = Wavelength

d= Diameter of aperture

\theta = Angular resolution or diffraction angle

Our values are given as,

\theta = 11\°

The frequency of the sound is f = 9100 Hz

The speed of the sound is v = 343 m/s

The wavelength of the sound is

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

Here,

v = Velocity of the wave

f = Frequency

Replacing,

\lambda = \frac{(343 m/s)}{(9100 Hz)}

\lambda = 0.0377 m

The diffraction condition is then,

sin\theta = 1.22\frac{\lambda}{d}

Replacing,

sin(11\°) = 1.22\frac{(0.0377 m)}{(d)}

d = 0.24 m

Therefore the diameter should be 0.24m

a 4kg metal block absorbs 5000j of energy and increases to a temperature of 22°c. the metal has a specific heat capacity of 250j
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

17 °C

Explanation:

From specific Heat capacity.

Q = cm(t₂-t₁)................. Equation 1

Where Q = Heat absorb by the metal block, c = specific heat capacity of the metal block, m = mass of the metal block, t₂ = final temperature, t₁ = Initial temperature.

make t₁ the subject of the equation

t₁ = t₂-(Q/cm)............... Equation 2

Given: t₂ = 22 °C, Q = 5000 J, m = 4 kg, c = 250 J/kg.°c

Substitute into equation 2

t₁ = 22-[5000/(4×250)

t₁ = 22-(5000/1000)

t₁ = 22-5

t₁ = 17 °C

An observer sees a full moon in the night sky. What will the Moon's phase be 10 days later?
algol [13]
I'm pretty sure the moon would be a crescent within the 10 day period because it takes about 28 days for the moon to go through the different stages.

A machine accelerates a 5 kg missile from rest to a speed of 5 km/s. The net force accelerating the missile 500,000 N. How long
Gnoma [55]
Final velocity = 5km/sec = 5000 m/sec
Initial velocity = 0, mass = 5kg and force = 500,000 N
F = m(Vf-Vi)/time
Time = m(Vf-Vi)/force = 5*5000/500000 = 0.05 seconds
So, it takes 0.05 sec to arrive at the speed of 5km/s.

The power in an electrical circuit is given by the equation P = I2R, where I is the current flowing through the circuit and R is
kiruha [24]

Answer:

Explanation: Here we have given a direct equation . There for no need to worry .

P = I²×R

P = (12)² ×100

P = 14400W = 14.4 kW

For second one

P = I² ×R

200 = I²×150

I = √200/150

I = 1.15 A
