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

Two identical loudspeakers, speaker 1 and speaker 2, are 2.0 m apart and are emitting 1700-hz sound waves into a room where the
Debora [2.8K]


Given the following in the problem:

Distances : 2.0 m and 4.0 m
Sound waves : 1700 hz
Speed of sound : 340 m/s

Get the wavelength of the sound by using the formula: 
Lambda = speed of sound/sound waves
Lambda = 340 m/s / 1700 hz
Lambda = 0.2 
Get the path length difference to the point from the two speakers 
L1 = 4mL2 = sqrt (42+ 22) m
Delta = 4.47

x = delta / lambda

If the outcome is nearly an integer, the waves strengthen at the point. If it is nearly an integer +0.5 the waves interfere destructively at the point. If it is neither the point is somewhat in in the middle.

Solving x = (4.47 – 4) / (0.2) = 2.35 an integer +0.5 so it’s a point of destructive interference.

A marble column of cross-sectional area 1.6 m^2 supports a mass of 26600 kg. The elastic modulus for marble is 5.0 times 10^10 N
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Δ L = 2.57 x 10⁻⁵ m

Explanation:

given,

cross sectional area = 1.6 m²

Mass of column = 26600 Kg

Elastic modulus, E = 5 x 10¹⁰ N/m²

height = 7.9 m

Weight of the column = 26600 x 9.8

                                    = 260680 N

we know,

Young's modulus=\dfrac{stress}{strain}

stress = \dfrac{P}{A}

           = \dfrac{260680}{1.6}

           = 162925

strain = \dfrac{\Delta L}{L}

now,

Y = \dfrac{stress}{strain}

\Delta L = \dfrac{162925}{Y}\times L

\Delta L = \dfrac{162925}{5 \times 10^10}\times 7.9

   Δ L = 2.57 x 10⁻⁵ m

The column is shortened by Δ L = 2.57 x 10⁻⁵ m
