A sound source is located somewhere along the x-axis. Experiments show that the same wave front simultaneously reaches listeners

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

As the source is situated on x - axis , it must be situated in between the two listeners .

So the x coordinate of source is

(-7 + 3 )/2

= - 2 m

The equation of the wave- front will be that o a circle having centre at (-2,0)

and radius = distance between -2 and 3 , that is 5 m

equation of circle

=( x+2 )² + y² = 25

It cuts y axis when x = 0

Putting x = 0

4 + y² = 25

y² = 21

y = + √21 , or - √21

A point charge q1 is held stationary at the origin. A second charge q2 is placed at point a, and the electric potential energy o

likoan [24]

Answer:

$U_{b}=+7.3*10^{-8}J$

Explanation:

Given data

Electric potential at point a is Ua=5.4×10⁻⁸J

q₂ moves to point b where a negative work done on it $W_{a-b}=-1.9*10^{-8}J$

Required

Electric potential energy Ub

Solution

When a particle moves from a point where the potential is Ua to a point where it is Ub the change in potential energy is equal to work done where the force exerted on the charge is conservative and work done is given by:

$W_{a-b}=U_{a}-U_{b}\\U_{b}=U_{a}-W_{a-b}$

Now substitute the given values

$U_{b}=5.4*10^{-8}J-(-1.9*10^{-8}J)\\U_{b}=+7.3*10^{-8}J$

A bucket of mass M (when empty) initially at rest and containing a mass of water is being pulled up a well by a rope exerting a

Naily [24]

Answer:

$V=\dfrac{PT}{m}\ ln\dfrac{M+m}{M}-gT$

Explanation:

Given that

Constant rate of leak =R

Mass at time T ,m=RT

At any time t

The mass = Rt

So the total mass in downward direction=(M+Rt)

Now force equation

(M+Rt) a =P- (M+Rt) g

$a=\dfrac{P}{M+Rt}-g$

We know that

$a=\dfrac{dV}{dt}$

$\dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{P}{M+Rt}-g$

$\int_{0}^{V}V=\int_0^T \left(\dfrac{P}{M+Rt}-g\right)dt$

$V=\dfrac{P}{R}\ ln\dfrac{M+RT}{M}-gT$

$V=\dfrac{PT}{m}\ ln\dfrac{M+m}{M}-gT$

This is the velocity of bucket at the instance when it become empty.

A man with a weight of 100 N is located

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Given,

mass of man = 100 N = 10 kg

height = h = 25m

since the man does not move anything with his force, work done by him is zero

work done on the man = gain in potential energy

P.E=mgh

P.E=10×9.8×25

P.E=2.45KJ

Explanation:

so, potential energy gained by man is 2.45 KJ
