In order to know if the observer hears a loud or a quiet sound, you need to know if there is a constructive or destructive interference between the sound waves of the loudspeakers.

You first calculate the distance between the observer and the loudspeakers.

The distances are given by:

d1: distance to loudspeaker A = 2.10m

d2: distance to loudspeaker B

$d_2=\sqrt{(3.20m)^2+(2.10m)^2}=3.827m$

Next, you calculate the wavelength of the sound waves by using the following formula:

$\lambda=\frac{v_s}{f}$

vs: speed of sound = 343 m/s

f: frequency of the waves = 400Hz

λ: wavelength

$\lambda=\frac{343m/s}{400Hz}=0.8575m$

Next, you calculate the path difference between the distance from the observer to the loudspeakers:

$\Delta d=3.827m-2.10m=1.727m$

You obtain a constructive interference (loud sound) if the quotient between the wavelength of the sound and the difference path is an integer:

$\frac{\Delta d}{\lambda}=\frac{1.727m}{0.857}\approx2$

Then, there will be a constructive interference, and the sound who the observer hears is loud.

A ball rolls up a ramp with a velocity of 8.0 m/s. How high up the ramp does it travel?

Flura [38]

The greatest height the ball will attain is 3.27 m

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>

Initial velocity (u) = 8 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (at maximum height)

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Maximum height (h) =?

The maximum height to which the ball can attain can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² – 2gh (since the ball is going against gravity)

0² = 8² – (2 × 9.8 × h)

0 = 64 – 19.6h

Collect like terms

0 – 64 = –19.6h

–64 = –19.6h

Divide both side by –19.6

h = –64 / –19.6h

h = 3.27 m

Thus, the greatest height the ball can attain is 3.27 m

Why is it important to consider the experimental error in all the empirical results presented?

irinina [24]

Answer:

It is very important because scientists, especially the ones with empirical experiments and results, are prone to error and the empirical data is in need to be under strict observation done not only by many scientists but also by expermiented ones. This guards everybody to change the parameters suddenly which can affect the real results of an experiment
