Which type of foot PPE must you wear if electrical shock is ever a possibility with your job?

Physics

The appropriate PPE(personal protective equipment) to be worn for foot protection against electric shock is boots retrofitted with rubber soles. Rubber does not conduct electricity and so will safeguard against electric shocks.

Other personal protective equipment used in a lab or industry can include safety glasses, rubber gloves, protective clothing and masks and respirators. PPE goes hand in hand with personal behaviour, personal grooming and housekeeping.

You are traveling in a car toward a hill at a speed of 36.4 mph. The car's horn emits sound waves of frequency 231 Hz, which mov
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

<em>a. The frequency with which the waves strike the hill is 242.61 Hz</em>

<em>b. The frequency of the reflected sound wave is 254.23 Hz</em>

<em>c. The beat frequency produced by the direct and reflected sound is  </em>

<em>    11.62 Hz</em>

Explanation:

Part A

The car is the source of our sound, and the frequency of the sound wave it emits is given as 231 Hz. The speed of sound given can be used to determine the other frequencies, as expressed below;

f_{1} = f[\frac{v_{s} }{v_{s} -v} ] ..............................1

where f_{1} is the frequency of the wave as it strikes the hill;

f is the frequency of the produced by the horn of the car = 231 Hz;

v_{s} is the speed of sound = 340 m/s;

v is the speed of the car = 36.4 mph

Converting the speed of the car from mph to m/s we have ;

hint (1 mile = 1609 m, 1 hr = 3600 secs)

v = 36.4 mph *\frac{1609 m}{1 mile} *\frac{1 hr}{3600 secs}

v = 16.27 m/s

Substituting into equation 1 we have

f_{1} =  231 Hz (\frac{340 m/s}{340 m/s - 16.27 m/s})

f_{1}  = 242.61 Hz.

Therefore, the frequency which the wave strikes the hill is 242.61 Hz.

Part B

At this point, the hill is the stationary point while the driver is the observer moving towards the hill that is stationary. The frequency of the sound waves reflecting the driver can be obtained using equation 2;

f_{2} = f_{1} [\frac{v_{s}+v }{v_{s} } ]

where f_{2} is the frequency of the reflected sound;

f_{1}  is the frequency which the wave strikes the hill = 242.61 Hz;

v_{s} is the speed of sound = 340 m/s;

v is the speed of the car = 16.27 m/s.

Substituting our values into equation 1 we have;

f_{2} = 242.61 Hz [\frac{340 m/s+16.27 m/s }{340 m/s } ]

f_{2}  = 254.23 Hz.

Therefore, the frequency of the reflected sound is 254.23 Hz.

Part C

The beat frequency is the change in frequency between the frequency of the direct sound  and the reflected sound. This can be obtained as follows;

Δf = f_{2} -  f_{1}  

The parameters as specified in Part A and B;

Δf = 254.23 Hz - 242.61 Hz

Δf  = 11.62 Hz

Therefore the beat frequency produced by the direct and reflected sound is 11.62 Hz

16. Two capacitors have an equivalent
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

C1 + C2 = 30     parallel connection

C1 * C2 / (C1 + C2) = 7.2  series connection

C1 * C2 = 7.2 * (C1 + C2) = 216

C2 + 216 / C2 = 30    using first equation

C2^2 + 216 = 30 C2

C2^2 - 30 C2 + 216 = 0

C2 = 12 or 18    solving the quadratic

Then C1 = 18 or 12

Which of the following are true (choose all that apply)? Sound can travel through a vacuum. -Sound can travel through water. Lig
Lunna [17]

Answer:

option (A) - false

option (B) - true

option (C) - true

option (D) - true

option (E) - true

option (F) - true

Explanation:

The sound waves are mechanical waves that means they need a medium to travel.

The light waves are non mechanical waves it means they do not need a medium to travel.

Sound cannot travel trough vacuum.

Sound can travel through air and water.

Light can travel trough vacuum and in air and in water.
