How does diffraction enable somebody to hear your voice from anywhere in the room?

1 answer:

4 0

Diffraction means spreading out of waves that has the same wavelength as the size of the gap. Sound waves have high wavelength and so it diffracts\spreads out and enables anyone to hear your voice from anywhere outside the room.

For inside the room, the sound waves doesn't actually diffract. They collide with the air particles, causing a series of compressions and rarefactions which spreads out in the air particles and anyone can hear your voice.

Air is the medium for the sound waves to travel.

Assume the acceleration of the object is a(t) = −9.8 meters per second per second. (Neglect air resistance.) A baseball is throw

wel

Answer:8.1 m

Explanation:

Given

ball is launched from height of 3 m

initial velocity $u=10 m/s$

considering the ball is thrown vertically upward

Using $v^2-u^2=2 as$

where,

u=initial velocity

v=final Velocity

a=acceleration

s=distance

At maximum height final velocity will be zero

$v^2-u^2=2 gs$

$0-10^2=2(-9.8)\cdot h$

$h=5.10 m$

Therefore maximum height w.r.t ground is $3+5.10=8.10 m$

A motorcycle begins at rest and accelerates uniformly S7.9 we want to find a time to take the motorcycle to reach a speed of 100

Len [333]

The motorbike reaches 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds

Explanation:

The motion of the motorbike is a uniformly accelerated motion (= constant acceleration), therefore we can use the following suvat equation:

$v=u+at$

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

For the motorbike in this problem,

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

$v = 100 km/h = 27.8 m/s$ is the final velocity

$a=7.9 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

Solving for t, we find the time it takes for the bike to reach that velocity:

$t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{27.8-0}{7.9}=3.5 s$

Calculate the change in entropy that occurs in the system when 3.10 mole of isopropyl alcohol (C3H8O) melts at its melting point

ozzi

Answer:

3.10 mole of C3H8O change in entropy is 89.54 J/K

Explanation:

Given data

mole = 3.10 moles

temperature = -89.5∘C = -89 + 273 = 183.5 K

ΔH∘fus = 5.37 kJ/mol = 5.3 ×10^3 J/mol

to find out

change in entropy

solution

we know change in entropy is ΔH∘fus / melting point

put these value so we get change in entropy that is

change in entropy 5.3 ×10^3 / 183.5

change in entropy is 28.88 J/mol-K

so we say 1 mole of C3H8O change in entropy is 28.88 J/mol-K

and for the 3.10 mole of C3H8O change in entropy is 3.10 ×28.88 J/K

3.10 mole of C3H8O change in entropy is 89.54 J/K

How much work is done when a 214 newton force pushes a sleeping cow 37m across a field.

nata0808 [166]

Hello!

Answer:
7918 J

Explanation:

We are assuming that the floor (field) is completely horizontal since there's no information about that in the statement.

We are going to use the following formula:

$W= F . Cos \alpha . D$

Where:

$F=214 N$
$\alpha =0$ º
$D= 37m$

Then, by substituting we have:

$W=214N . Cos (0).37m= 7918 N.m=7918 J$
