If the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s, what is approximately the length of the shortest air column closed at one end that will

Answer:

42.9 cm

Explanation:

given,

speed of sound, v = 340 m/s

Frequency of tuning fork, f = 198 Hz

The length of the shortest air column closed at one end.

this is the case of the standing wave.

L = N λ

N = the number of complete sine waves in the standing wave.

The standing wave in the problem is the first harmonic of a pipe open at one end.

N = 1/4

we know,

v = f λ

340 = 198 x λ

λ = 1.717 m

now,

L = N λ

L = \dfrac{1}{4}\times 1.717

L = 0.429\ m

   L = 42.9 cm

minimum length of the required pipe is 42.9 cm.

(b) Can the speed of a rocket exceed the exhaust speed of the fuel? Explain.
muminat

<u>Yes. The speed of a rocket can exceed the exhaust speed of the fuel.</u>

How this is explained?

  • The thrust of the rocket does not depend on the relative speed of the gases or the relative speed of the rocket.
  • It depends on conservation of momentum.

What is conservation of momentum?

  • Conservation of momentum, general law of physics according to which the quantity called momentum that characterizes motion never changes in an isolated collection of objects; that is, the total momentum of a system remains constant.
  • Momentum is equal to the mass of an object multiplied by its velocity and is equivalent to the force required to bring the object to a stop in a unit length of time.
  • For any array of several objects, the total momentum is the sum of the individual momenta.
  • There is a peculiarity, however, in that momentum is a vector, involving both the direction and the magnitude of motion, so that the momenta of objects going in opposite directions can cancel to yield an overall sum of zero.

A voltmeter was used to check the coolant and a reading of 0.2 volt with the engine off was measured. A reading of 0.8 volt was
Julli [10]

Answer:

C. Technician B

Explanation:

Excessive Galvanic activity:

To check for excessive galvanic activity, voltmeter is used to check the coolant. If the voltmeter is giving a reading greater than 0.5 V, there is excessive galvanic activity. Excessive galvanic activity is solved by flushing the coolant fluid from engine and refiling it.

Electrolysis problem:

When the system is not properly ground, the cooling system accepts stray current and the coolant becomes an electrolyte which might eat up the radiator. To test for excessive electrolysis, start the engine and turn on all electrical accessories, if the reading is more than 0.5 V, there is electrolysis problem. Ground wires and connections should be checked at this point to stop stray current.

In our case, the first reading is 0.2 V(engine turned off) which is normal and there is no excessive galvanic activity. This means that Technician A is not correct. The second reading is 0.8 V when the engine and all electrical accessories are turned on. This reading is greater than 0.5 V which means there is an electrolysis problem. This means that Technician B is correct and ground wires and connections should be inspected and repaired.

A fixed system of charges exerts a force of magnitude 22 N on a 4.0 C charge. The 4.0 C charge is replaced with a 8.0 C charge.
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

44 N

Explanation:

The electrostatic forces between two charges is given by:

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1 and q2 are the two charges

r is their separation

We notice that the force is directly proportional to the charges.

In this problem, initially we have a force of

F = 22 N

on a q2 = 4.0 C, exerted by a charge q1.

If the charge is doubled,

q2 = 8.0 C

This means that the force will also double, so it will be

F=22 N \cdot 2 = 44 N
