a new car is advertised as having anti-noise technology. The manufacturer claims that inside the car any sound on negated. Evalu

ate the possibility of such a claim. What would have to be created to cause destructive interference with any sound in the car? Do you believe the manufacturers claim is correct?

Answer:

I guess you mean that any sound coming from outside is negated, first, this would mean that you can not hear some signals that may help you to avoid accidents, so you do not want this technology.

Now, let's see if it is possible.

Suppose you have a soundwave approaching the car, the car needs to cancel the soundwaves as the soundwaves approach to the surface, to do it, you need to create another wave that is equal in amplitude, but with a change of phase of pi.

in order to do this, the car must be able to "analyze" the coming soundwave and instantly create another one to cancel it. Suppose that the sound is canceled. now if the sound changes, the car must be able to also change the sound that the car is producing, this instantaneous change is one of the problems.

Another problem is that, as you know, the sound propagates as spherical waves, this means that the wavefront of a wave produced far away will have a bigger radius than the soundwave produced by the car, then we never will have a situation where the wavefront is canceled: This means that we only can cancellate the sound in some areas of the car, and we still will have some sound in other parts of the car.

Another way to isolate the car is with isolating panels, those panels absorb the sound and transmit a very little amount of it (those panels are used in recording studios, for example). With enough of those you can cancel almost all the sound coming from the outside, but to do this you will need a big car because the amount of isolating material needed is a lot.  

We can conclude that the manufacturers claim is not correct.

STatiana [176]

Answer:

3335400 N/m² or 483.75889 lb/in²

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

A = Area = 1.5 cm²

m = Mass of woman = 51 kg

F = Force = mg

When we divide force by area we get pressure

P=\frac{F}{A}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{mg}{A}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{51\times 9.81}{1.5\times 10^{-4}}\\\Rightarrow P=3335400\ N/m^2

1\ N/m^2=\frac{1}{6894.757}\ lb/in^2

3335400\ N/m^2=3335400\times \frac{1}{6894.757}\ lb/in^2=483.75889\ lb/in^2

The pressure exerted on the floor is 3335400 N/m² or 483.75889 lb/in²

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

A. False

B True

C. False

D.False

E. True

F. False

G. False

H. False

I. True

Explanation:

A. False: The system being analyzed consists of the bug and the car.  These are the two bodies involved in the collision.

B. True: The system being analyzed consists of the bug and the car

C. False: The magnitudes of the change in velocity are different from the car and the bug. The velocity of the bug changes from 0 to the velocity of the car, while there is no noticeable change in the velocity of the car

D.False: There is barely any change in the momentum of the car since the mass of the bug is very small.

E. True: Since the mass of the bug is small, and was initially at rest, the magnitude of the change in monentum will be large because the new velocity will be that of the car.

F. False: The system being analyzed consists of the bug and the car. Those are the two bodies involved in the collision

G. False: The car barely changes in velocity since the mass of the bug is small.

H. False: The car barely changes in momentum because the collision does not affect its speed so much. on the other hand the momentum change of the bug is large since its mass is small.

I. True: The bug which was initially at rest will begin moving with the velovity of the speeding car, while the car barely changes in its velocity

How are light and sound waves affected by the different media they travel though?
seropon [69]
Sound waves need to travel through a medium such as solids, liquids and gases. The sound waves move through each of these mediums by vibrating the molecules in the matter. The molecules in solids are packed very tightly. Liquids are not packed as tightly. And gases are very loosely packed. This enables sound to travel much faster through a solid than a gas. Sound travels about four times faster and farther in water than it does in air.

Light waves do not require a medium to travel. This is how light can travel through space and we can see stars. Light waves travel at a much higher velocity as compared to sound waves. The velocity of light waves (through a vacuum) is 3 xx 10^8 m/s. In comparison, the velocity of sound waves (in air) is about 343 m/s. Different frequencies of light waves give rise to different colors. On the other hand, different frequencies of sound waves result in different pitches. Light waves and sound waves have very different frequencies from each other. Sound waves have low frequencies (20 to 20,000 Hz) as compared to light waves (~ 10^14 Hz).
