Jason walks 20 m East, turns around and 20 m West, Finally, he walks 10 rn North. This takes 20 s. what is Jason's velocity

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

0.5 m/s north

Explanation:

Take east to be +x, west to be -x, north to be +y, and south to be -y.

His displacement in the x direction is:

x = 20 m − 20 m = 0 m

His displacement in the y direction is:

y = 10 m

His total displacement is therefore 10 m north.

His velocity is equal to displacement divided by time.

v = 10 m north / 20 s

v = 0.5 m/s north

Nearly monochromatic light of wavelength 420 nm is split in two beams. The first beam traveled 105 nm to the screen more than th

leva [86]

Answer:

phase difference = π / 2

constructive interference

Explanation:

Given data

wavelength = 420 nm

1st beam = 105 nm

path difference = 105 nm

to find out

phase difference and interference pattern of the two beams

solution

we use here equation of phase difference that is

phase difference = 2π / wavelength × Δx

put here value

phase difference = 2π / 420 × 105

phase difference = π / 2

and

we know that here path difference Δx is the integral multiple of the wavelength so it will be constructive interference

Δx is wavelength / 4

A flutist assembles her flute in a room where the speed of sound is 342 m/s. When she plays the note A, it is in perfect tune wi

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

5.15348 Beats/s

4.55 mm

Explanation:

$v_1$ = Velocity of sound = 342 m/s

$v_2$ = Velocity of sound = 346 m/s

$f_1$ = First frequency = 440 Hz

Frequency is given by

$f_2=\frac{v_2}{2L_1}\\\Rightarrow f_2=\frac{346}{2\times 0.38863}\\\Rightarrow f_2=445.15348\ Hz$

Beat frequency is given by

$|f_1-f_2|=|440-445.15348|=5.15348\ Beats/s$

Beat frequency is 5.15348 Hz

Wavelength is given by

$\lambda_1=\frac{v_1}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda_1=\frac{342}{440}\\\Rightarrow \lambda_1=0.77727\ m$

Relation between length of the flute and wavelength is

$\lambda_1=2L_1\\\Rightarrow L_1=\frac{\lambda_1}{2}\\\Rightarrow L_1=\frac{0.77727}{2}\\\Rightarrow L_1=0.38863\ m$

At v = 346 m/s

$\lambda_2=\frac{v_2}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda_2=\frac{346}{440}\\\Rightarrow \lambda_1=0.78636\ m$

$L_2=\frac{\lambda_2}{2}\\\Rightarrow L_2=\frac{0.78636}{2}\\\Rightarrow L_2=0.39318\ m$

Difference in length is

$\Delta L=L_2-L_1\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=0.39318-0.38863\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=0.00455\ m=4.55\ mm$

It extends to 4.55 mm
