Send wave from your location to the object and wait until echo is back.
Measure the time taken.
If you know the speed of wave (say sound wave), than just multiply by half time taken wave to return
Explanation:
c. if the vector is oriented at 0° from the X -axis.
Kangchenjunga (8,586 metres (28,169 ft)) was considered to be the highest mountain from 1838 until 1852. Mount Everest, 8,848 metres (29,029 ft). Established as highest in 1852 and officially confirmed in 1856.
Answer:
Explanation:
The power of each of the speakers is 0.535 W. At a distance d intensity of sound can be found by the following formula
Intensity of sound = Power / 4π d²
= .535 / 4 x 3.14 x (27.3/2)²
= 2.286 x 10⁻⁴ J m⁻² s⁻¹
Intensity of sound due to other source = 5.715 x 10⁻⁵J m⁻² s⁻¹
Total intensity = 2 x 2.286 x 10⁻⁴J m⁻² s⁻¹
= 4.57 x 10⁻⁴J m⁻² s⁻¹
b ) In this case, man is standing at distances 18.15 m and 9.15 m from the sources .
The total intensity of sound reaching him is as follows
0.535 / (4 π x18.15² ) + 0.535 / (4 π x9.15² )
= 1.293 x 10⁻⁴ + 5.087 x 10⁻⁴
= 6.38 x 10⁻⁴J m⁻² s⁻¹
