The acceleration will triple as well

SOVA2 [1]3 years ago

F = ma

Assuming that the mass of the object remains constant,
3F = xma
where x is the ratio that the acceleration increases by.

x = 3, so the acceleration will triple.

One speaker generates sound waves with amplitude A.

raketka [301]

Answer:

iv) It is 9x bigger than before

Explanation:

As the amplitudes of the new speakers add directly with the original one, taking into account the phase that they have, the composed amplitude of the sound wave is as follows:

At = A + 4A -2A = 3 A

The intensity of the wave, assuming it propagates evenly in all directions, is constant at a given distance from the source, and can be expressed as follows:

I = P/A

where P= Power of the wave source, A= Area (for a point source, is equal to the surface area of a sphere of radius r, where is r is the distance to the source along a straight line)

For a sinusoidal wave, the power is proportional to the square of the amplitude, so the intensity is proportional to the square of the amplitude also.

If the amplitude changes increasing three times, the change in intensity will be proportional to the square of the change in amplitude, i.e., it will be 9 times bigger.

So, the statement iv) is the right one.

A seagull flies at a velocity of 9.00 m/s straight into the wind.

RideAnS [48]

a)If it takes the bird 18.0 minutes to fly 6 km away from the earth, the wind's speed will be 4 m/s.

b) The bird would need 7 minutes and 42 seconds to fly back 6 kilometers if he turned around and flew with the wind.

c)Compared to the 133.33 seconds it would take without the wind, the overall round-trip time is affected by the wind.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3>

The change of distance with respect to time is defined as speed. Speed is a scalar quantity. It is a time-based component. Its unit is m/sec.

The given data in the problem is

A seagull flies at a velocity, $\rm v_{SA} = 9 \ m/sec$

The time the bird takes,t=18.0 min

The distance traveled relative to the earth = 6.00 km

The seagull's relative velocity with reference to the ground as;

$\rm v_{sg} = \frac{6.00 \times 10^3 \ m }{(20 min) \times \frac{60 s }{1 \ min}} \\\\ v_{sg}= 5.00 \ m/sec$

Air velocity with reference to the ground is;

$\rm v_{AG}= v_{SG}-v_{SA} \\\\ v_{AG} = 5.00 \ m/sec - 9.00 \ m/sec \\\\ v_{AG} = -4.00 \ m/sec$

If the bird turns around and flies with the wind, The time will he take to return 6.00 km is;

$\rm v_{SG}=v_{SA}+v_{AG} \\\\ v_{SG}=-900 \ m/sec +(-4.00 \ m/sec) \\\\ v_{SG}= -13.00 \ m/sec$

The time the bird takes;

$\rm t = \frac{x_{SG}}{v_{SG}} \\\\ t = \frac{6.00 \times 10^3 \ m }{13.00 \ m/sec } \\\\ t = 462 m/sec \\\\ t = 7 \ min \ and \ 42 \ sec$

c)\

The total round-trip time compared to what it would be with no wind. is;

$\rm t = 20 \ min( \frac{60 \ sec }{1 \ min} )+ 462 \ sec \\\\ t = 1200 \ sec +6 462 \ ec \\\\ t= 1662 \ sec$

The time for the round trip is;

$\rm t = \frac{12 \times 10^ 3 }{ 9 \ m/sec } \\\\ t = 1333.33 \ sec$

Hence the wind's speed, the time bird would need to fly back the total round-trip time will be 4 m/s, 7 minutes and 42 seconds and 1333.33 sec.

A resistor is connected in series with an AC source that provides a sinusoidal voltage of v of t is equal to V times cosine of b

nekit [7.7K]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

In circuits, the average power is defined as the average of the instantaneous power over one period. The instantaneous power can be found as:

$p(t)=v(t)i(t)$

So the average power is:

$P=\frac{1}{T}\intop_{0}^{T}p(t)dt$

But:

$v(t)=v_{m}cos(\omega t) \\ \\ i(t)=i_{m}cos(\omega t)$

So:

$P=\frac{1}{T}\intop_{0}^{T}v_{m}cos(\omega t)i_{m}cos(\omega t)dt \\ \\ P=\frac{v_{m}i_{m}}{T}\intop_{0}^{T}cos^{2}(\omega t)dt \\ \\ But: cos^{2}(\omega t)=\frac{1+cos(2\omega t)}{2}$

$P=\frac{v_{m}i_{m}}{T}\intop_{0}^{T}(\frac{1+cos(2\omega t)}{2} )dt \\\\P=\frac{v_{m}i_{m}}{T}\intop_{0}^{T}[\frac{1}{2}+\frac{cos(2\omega t)}{2}]dt \\\\P=\frac{v_{m}i_{m}}{T}[\frac{1}{2}(t)\right|_0^T +\frac{sin(2\omega t)}{4\omega} \right|_0^T] \\ \\ P=\frac{v_{m}i_{m}}{2T}[(t)\right|_0^T +\frac{sin(2\omega t)}{2\omega} \right|_0^T] \\ \\ P=\frac{v_{m}i_{m}}{2}$

In terms of RMS values:

$V_{RMS}=V=\frac{v_{m}}{\sqrt{2}} \\ \\ I_{RMS}=I=\frac{i_{m}}{\sqrt{2}} \\ \\ Then: \\ \\ P=VI$
