You are standing 2.5m directly in front of one of the two loudspeakers. They are 3.0m apart and both are playing a 686Hz tone in

phase. As you begin to walk directly away from the speaker, at what distances from the speaker do you hear a minimum sound intensity? The room temperature is 20c .

Answer:

distance from speaker is 17.87 m

Explanation:

given data

distance from loudspeaker = 2.5 m

distance between loudspeaker = 3.0 m

room temperature = 20c

wavelength f  = 686Hz

to find out

what distances from the speaker

solution

we know sound velocity c = 331.5  + 0.6 × 20c = 343.5

so wavelength of sound  λ = c / f  

wavelength = 343.5 /  686 = 0.5 m

when the difference in distance of speaker destructive interference will be

d = λ/2 × (2n-1)

for n = 1, 2 3 4 ..

d = 0.5/2 × (2n-1)

d = 0.250 , 0.75 , 1.25 , 1.750............   for n = 1, 2 3 .............

so

for d = 0.250

side of triangle by hypotenuse of triangle are

\sqrt{3^{2}+(2..5+x)^{2} } - (2.5 + x1) = 0.250

0.5 x1 = 7.6875

x1 = 15.375 m

for d = 0.75

side of triangle by hypotenuse of triangle are

\sqrt{3^{2}+(2..5+x)^{2} } - (2.5 + x2) = 0.75

1.5 x2 = 4.6875

x2 = 3.125 m

for d = 1.250

side of triangle by hypotenuse of triangle are

\sqrt{3^{2}+(2..5+x)^{2} } - (2.5 + x3) = 1.250

2.5 x2 = 1.1875

x3 = 0.475 m

for d = 1.750

x4 will be negative so we stop here

so the distance from speaker here is given below

distance = 2.5 + x

here x = 0.475 , 3.125 and 15.375 so

distance 1 = 2.5 + 0.475  = 2.975 m

distance 2 = 2.5 + 3.125  = 5.625 m

distance 3 = 2.5 + 15.375 = 17.875 m

final distance from speaker is 17.87 m

A 545-kg satellite is in a circular orbit about Earth at a height above Earth equal to Earth's mean radius. (a) Find the satelli
Art [367]

Answer

given,

mass of satellite = 545 Kg

R = 6.4 x 10⁶ m

H = 2 x 6.4 x 10⁶ m

Mass of earth = 5.972 x 10²⁴ Kg

height above earth is equal to earth's mean radius

a) satellite's orbital velocity

   centripetal force acting on satellite = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

     gravitational force = \dfrac{GMm}{r^2}

    equating both the above equation

    \dfrac{mv^2}{r} = \dfrac{GMm}{r^2}

      v = \sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{r}}

      v = \sqrt{\dfrac{6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 5.972 \times 10^{24}}{2 \times 6.4 \times 10^6}}

          v = 5578.5 m/s

b) T= \dfrac{2\pi\ r}{v}

   T= \dfrac{2\pi\times 2\times 6.4 \times 10^6}{5578.5}

   T= \dfrac{2\pi\times 2\times 6.4 \times 10^6}{5578.5}

          T = 14416.92 s

          T = \dfrac{14416.92}{3600}\ hr

          T = 4 hr

c) gravitational force acting

  F = \dfrac{GMm}{r^2}

  F = \dfrac{6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 545 \times 5.972 \times 10^{24} }{(6.46 \times 10^6)^2}

     F = 5202 N

A bar magnet is held above the center of a conducting ring in the horizontal plane. The magnet is dropped so it falls lengthwise
Alenkinab [10]

Explanation:

Since, it is given that the magnet drops and falls lengthwise towards the canter of the ring. As a result, change in magnetic flux will occur which tends to induce an electric current in the ring.

Therefore, a magnetic field is also produced by the ring itself which will actually oppose or repel the magnet.  

Thus, we can conclude that the falling magnet be repelled by the ring due to the magnetic interaction of the magnet and the ring.
