(b) The particle displacement y of air molecules due to a sound wave is given by y 4m and w = = 0.008 cos wt sin kz. Where k - m
serious [3.7K]

The distance between two consecutive nodes and the amplitude after 0.56s are m/2 and 1.75×10^(-4) m respectively.

<h3>What's the distance between consecutive nodes of the displacement of air molecules?</h3>
  • Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive nodes or toughs or crests or anti-nodes.
  • So, distance between consecutive nodes = wavelength = 2π÷k

= 2π/(4π÷m)

= m/2

<h3>What's the amplitude after 0.56s of the displacement of air molecules?</h3>

Displacement after 0.56 s = 0.008×cos(50π×0.56s)

=1.75×10^(-4) m

Thus, we can conclude that the distance between consecutive nodes and displacement after 0.56 s are m/2 and 1.75×10^(-4) m respectively.

A tomato of mass 0.18 kg is dropped from a tall bridge. If the tomato has a speed of 11 m/s just before it hits the ground, what
kondor19780726 [428]
The kinetic energy of the tomato is : 

K.E =  1/2 mv^2

K.E = 1/2 x 0.18 kg x 11 m/S^2

K.E = 0.99

Radar uses radio waves of a wavelength of 2.4 \({\rm m}\) . The time interval for one radiation pulse is 100 times larger than t
blondinia [14]

Answer:

120 m

Explanation:

Given:

wavelength 'λ' = 2.4m

pulse width 'τ'= 100T ('T' is the time of one oscillation)

The below inequality express the range of distances to an object that radar can detect

τc/2 < x < Tc/2 ---->eq(1)

Where, τc/2 is the shortest distance

First we'll calculate Frequency 'f' in order to determine time of one oscillation 'T'

f = c/λ (c= speed of light i.e 3 x 10^{8} m/s)

f= 3 x 10^{8} / 2.4

f=1.25 x  10^{8} hz.

As, T= 1/f

time of one oscillation T= 1/1.25 x  10^{8}

T= 8 x 10^{-9} s

It was given that pulse width 'τ'= 100T

τ= 100 x 8 x 10^{-9} => 800 x 10^{-9} s

From eq(1), we can conclude that the shortest distance to an object that this radar can detect:

x_{min}= τc/2 =>  (800 x 10^{-9} x 3 x 10^{8})/2

x_{min}=120m

A laser beam with a frequency of 180 Hz forms an 8 m standing wave with 10 nodes.
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:33

Explanation:

F = frequency

N =  Node count

w = wave lenght

v = wave velocity

L = distance wave traveled

First find wave length of laser

w = (2/(N))*(L)

w = (2/(10))*(8)

w = 1.6

then using (w), find velocity

V =  (w)(F)

V = (1.6)*(108)

V = 288

Plug in V and the new frequency to solve for new node count

F = NV/2L

(600) = (N)*(288) / 2 * (8)

(N) = 33.33

there are 33 nodes
