Assume a change at the source of sound reduces the wavelength of a sound wave in air by a factor of 3.

Physics
1 answer:
noname [10]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by :

v=f\lambda ......(1)

(i) Here, the wavelength of a sound wave in air reduces by a factor of 3. Equation (1) becomes :

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional to each other. So, if wavelength of a sound wave in air reduces by a factor of 3, then the frequency will increases by a factor of 3.

(ii) It remains the same.

Each of the following diagrams shows a spaceship somewhere along the way between Earth and the Moon (not to scale); the midpoint
djyliett [7]

Answer:

F_5 >F_4>F_1 >F_2>F_3

Where F_i represent the force for each of the 5 cases i -1,2,3,4,5 presented on the figure attached.

Explanation:

For this case the figure attached shows the illustration for the problem

We have an inverse square law with distance for the force, so then the force of gravity between Earth and the spaceship is lower when the spaceship is far away from Earth.

Th formula is given by:

F = G \frac{m_{Earth} m_{Spaceship}}{r^2}

Where G is a constant G = 6.674 x10^{-11} m^2/ (ks s^2)

m_{Earth} represent the mass for the earth

m_{spaceship} represent the mass for the spaceship

r represent the radius between the earth and the spaceship

For this reason when the distance between the Earth and the Spaceship increases the Force of gravity needs to decrease since are inversely proportional the force and the radius, and for the other case when the Earth and the spaceship are near then the radius decrease and the Force increase.

Based on this case we can create the following rank:

F_5 >F_4>F_1 >F_2>F_3

Where F_i represent the force for each of the 5 cases i -1,2,3,4,5 presented on the figure attached.

A space vehicle is traveling at 3760 km/h relative to Earth when the exhausted rocket motor is disengaged and sent backward. The
almond37 [142]

Answer:

3688 km/h

Explanation:

Given:-

- The speed of vehicle relative to earth, vs_e = 3760 km/h

- The relative speed of command and motor, v_c/m = 90 km/h

- The mass of command = m

- The mass of motor = 4m

Find:-

What is the speed of the command module relative to Earth just after the separation?

Solution:-

- Consider the space vehicle as a system that detaches itself into two parts ( command and motor ). We will assume that the gravitational pull due to Earth on the space vehicle is negligible. With that assumption we have our system in isolation. We will apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum on the system as follows:

             Initial momentum = Final momentum

                                       Pi = Pf

                  M*vs_e = m*vc_e + 4m*vm_e

Where,

                  M = m + 4m = 5m

                  vc_e = Velocity of command relative to earth

                  vm_e = Velocity of motor relative to earth  

- We will develop a relation of velocities of command and motor in the frame of earth as follows:

                  vm_e =  v_c/m + vc_e        

- Substituting (vm_e) from Equation 2 into Equation 1, we have:

                  5m*vs_e = m*vc_e + 4m*(v_c/m + vc_e)

                  5m*vs_e = 5m*vc_e + 4m*(v_c/m)

- Solve for vc_e:

                  5m*vs_e -  4m*(v_c/m) = 5m*vc_e

                   vs_e - 0.8*(v_c/m) = vc_e

- Plug in values and evaluate vc_e:

                  vc_e = 3760 - 0.8*(90)

                  vc_e = 3,688 km/h

1) The object slows down due to kinetic friction.
2) The coefficient of kinetic friction is higher on a carpet than on the bare floor, therefore the object would slow down quicker on the carpet

While rearranging a dorm room, a student does 310 J of work in moving a desk 2.9 m. What was the magnitude of the applied horizo
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

The horizontal force is 106.89 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Work done = 310 J

Distance = 2.9 m

We need to calculate the horizontal force

Using formula of work done

W= Fd\cos\theta

Where, \theta=0^{\circ}

W=F\cdot d

Put the value into the formula

310=F\cdot 2.9

F=\dfrac{310}{2.9}

F=106.89\ N

Hence, The horizontal force is 106.89 N.
