7. A sound wave begins traveling through a thin metal rod at one end with a speed that is 15 times the speed of sound in air. If

an observer at the other end of the rod hears the sound twice, one from the sound traveling through the rod and one from the sound traveling through the air, with a time delay of 0.12 s, how long is the rod? The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.

Answer:

   L = 44,096 m

Explanation:

The speed of the sound wave is constant therefore we can use the relations of uniform kinematics

             v = x / t

the speed of the wave in the bar is

            v = 15 v or

            v = 15 343

             v = 5145 m / s

The sound at the bar goes the distance

             L = v t

Sound in the air travels the same distance

             L = v_air (t + 0.12)

as the two recognize the same dissonance,

             v t = v_air (t +0.12)

             t (v- v_air) = 0.12 v_air

              t = 0.12 v_air / (v -v_air)

l

et's calculate

             t = 0.12 343 / (5145 - 343)

             t = 8.57 10-3 s

The length of the bar is

              L = 5145 8.57 10-3

              L = 44,096 m

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

"Scientists used them to create new theories"

Explanation:

The Scientific Revolution was a sequence of actions that manifest the development of contemporary science through the early contemporary period, when advances in mathematics, physics, astronomy, biology and chemistry altered the opinions of civilization around nature. The scientific revolution denotes to the quick developments in European scientific, mathematical, and political assumed, grounded on a new philosophy of experimentation and a belief in growth that defined Europe in the 16th and 17th centuries.

Determine the maximum shearing stress in a solid shaft of 1.5-in. diameter as it transmits 75 hp at a speed of 1800 rpm. (Round
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

\tau=3.96\ ksi

Explanation:

Given that

d= 1.5 in                      ( 1 in = 0.0254 m)

d= 0.0381 m

P= 75 hp                      ( 1 hp = 745.7 W)

P= 55927.5 W

N= 1800 rpm

We know that power P is given as

P=\dfrac{2\pi N\ T}{60}

T=Torque

N=Speed

55927.5=\dfrac{2\times \pi \times 1800\ T}{60}

T=296.85 N.m

The maximum shear stress is given as

\tau=\dfrac{16 T}{\pi d^3}

\tau=\dfrac{16\times 296.85}{\pi \times 0.0381^3}

\tau=27.35\ MPa

We know that 1 MPa =0.145 ksi

\tau=3.96\ ksi

On a highway, a car is driven 80. kilometers
nydimaria [60]

The average speed of the car for the entire trip can be calculate by using:

v=\frac{S}{t}

where S is the total distance covered by the car, and t is the total time taken.


The total distance travelled by the car is:

S=80 km+50 km+40 km=170 km

while the total time taken is:

t=1.00 h+0.50 h+0.50 h=2.00 h


so, the average speed of the car is:

v=\frac{S}{t}=\frac{170 km}{2.00 h}=85 km/h


so, the correct answer is (3) 85 km/h.
