The human ear canal is about 2.9 cm long and can be regarded as a tube open at one end and closed at the eardrum. What is the fu
1 answer:
The frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.
Explanation:
As the ear canal is like a tube with open at one end, the wavelength of sound passing through this tube will propagate 4 times its length of the tube. So wavelength of the sound wave will be equal to four times the length of the tube. Then the frequency can be easily determined by finding the ratio of velocity of sound to wavelength. As the velocity of sound is given as 339 m/s, then the wavelength of the sound wave propagating through the ear canal is
Wavelength=4*Length of the ear canal
As length of the ear canal is given as 2.9 cm, it should be converted into meter as follows:
Then the frequency is determined as
f=c/λ=339/0.116=2922 Hz=2.92 kHz.
So, the frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.

First we need to find the acceleration of the skier on the rough patch of snow.
We are only concerned with the horizontal direction, since the skier is moving in this direction, so we can neglect forces that do not act in this direction. So we have only one horizontal force acting on the skier: the frictional force,
. For Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the skier must be equal to ma (mass per acceleration), so we can write:
Where the negative sign is due to the fact the friction is directed against the motion of the skier.
Simplifying and solving, we find the value of the acceleration:
Now we can use the following relationship to find the distance covered by the skier before stopping, S:

is the initial speed. Substituting numbers, we find:
