Two sources of in-phase coherent sound are located at the points (0 m, 2 m) and (-2 m, 0 m). An observer at the origin hears con

structive interference because she is equidistant from both sources. However, if she moves in the +x direction, she hears destructive interference for the first time when she reaches the point (0.6 m, 0 m). What is the frequency of the sound that the sources are emitting? a) 476 Hz b) 391 Hz c) 335 Hz d) 295 Hz e) 244 Hz

Answer:

c) 335 Hz

Explanation:

Given that the two sources:

S₁ ≡ (0 m, 2 m)

S₂ ≡ (-2 m, 0 m)

The lady hears the destructive interference for the first time when she reaches the point (0.6 m, 0 m).

So, the path difference = Δx = |S₂P - S₁P|

S_2P=\sqrt {(-2-0.6)^2+(0-0)^2}=2.6\ m

S_1P=\sqrt {(0-0.6)^2+(2-0)^2}=2.0881\ m

So,

Δx = |2.6 - 2.0881| = 0.5119 m

For, first destructive interference, Δx = λ / 2

So,

Wavelength = 1.0238 m

Also,

c = ν×λ

Where,

c is the speed of sound wave having value as 346 m/s

ν is the frequency

λ is the wavelength

So,

<u>ν = c / λ = 346 m/s / 1.0238 m ≈  335 Hz</u>

An electric iron operating at 120 volts draws 10. amperes of current. how much heat energy
faltersainse [42]
The complete question is how much heat energy is delivered by the iron in 30 seconds.
Heat is given by IVt, Where I is the current in Amperes, V is the voltage, and t is the time in seconds,
Therefore; 
Heat energy = 120 × 10 ×30
                     = 36000 joules or 36 kJ
Heat energy is measured in joules.

Two point charges exert a 5.00 N force on each other. What will the force become if the distance between them is increased by a
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

force becomes one - ninth

Explanation:

According to Coulomb's law in electrostatics, two charges can exert a force of attraction or repulsion on each other which is directly proportional to the product of two charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.

Here both the charges remains same but the distance is variable.

So, we can say that

F \alpha \frac{1}{d^{2}}    .... (1)

Where d be the distance between the tow charges

As the distance between two charges increases by factor of three, let the new force be F'.

F' \alpha \frac{1}{9d^{2}}   .... (2)

Divide equation (2) by equation (1), we get

\frac{F'}{F}=\frac{d^{2}}{9d^{2}}

F'=\frac{F}{9}

Thus, the force becomes one - ninth times the initial force.

Aluminum oxide can be produced during rocket launches. Show that the sum of positive and negative charges in a unit of Al2O3 equ
Triss [41]

Answer:

The sum of positive and negative charges in a unit of Al2O3 equals zero.

Aluminium has a charge of +3 while Oxygen has a charge of -2 on each ion.

Al203 has 2 Al atoms and 3 O atoms.

Charge on Al2O3 = 2(charge on Al ion) + 3(charge on O ion)

= 2(3) + 3(-2)

= 6 - 6

= 0

Explanation:

Aluminium has 3 electrons in the outermost shell and has the tendency to lose those 3 electrons to form a positive ion and have a complete outermost shell.

Whereas, Oxygen has 6 electrons in the outermost and has the tendency to accept two more electrons to form a negative ion and have a complete outermost shell.
