Describe how sound waves are produced by the drum and then heard.

1 answer:

Tamiku [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The material stretched across the drum vibrates to produce the sound waves.

Explanation:

A drum is one of the oldest musical instrument made by man. It is made of a hollow body over which a material such as skin is stretched. When a drum is struck with a stick, the material vibrates up and down. This makes the air above the drum to contract and relax rhythmically resulting in soundwaves. The soundwaves travel through air to reach our ears where they are heard.

The quality of sound produced by a drum is affected by its shape. A larger drum produces a lower pitched sound.

A −3.0 nC charge is on the x-axis at x=−9 cm and a +4.0 nC charge is on the x-axis at x=16 cm. At what point or points on the y-

alexdok [17]

Answer:

y = 10.2 m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge, $q_1=-3\ nC$

It is placed at a distance of 9 cm at x axis

Charge, $q_2=+4\ nC$

It is placed at a distance of 16 cm at x axis

We need to find the point on the y-axis where the electric potential zero. The net potential on y-axis is equal to 0. So,

$\dfrac{kq_1}{r_1}+\dfrac{kq_2}{r_2}=0$

Here,

$r_1=\sqrt{y^2+9^2} \\\\r_2=\sqrt{y^2+15^2}$

So,

$\dfrac{kq_1}{r_1}=-\dfrac{kq_2}{r_2}\\\\\dfrac{q_1}{r_1}=-\dfrac{q_2}{r_2}\\\\\dfrac{-3\ nC}{\sqrt{y^2+81} }=-\dfrac{4\ nC}{\sqrt{y^2+225} }\\\\3\times \sqrt{y^2+225}=4\times \sqrt{y^2+81}$

Squaring both sides,

$3\times \sqrt{y^2+225}=4\times \sqrt{y^2+81}\\\\9(y^2+225)=16\times (y^2+81)\\\\9y^2+2025=16y^2-+1296\\\\2025-1296=7y^2\\\\7y^2=729\\\\y=10.2\ m$

So, at a distance of 10.2 m on the y axis the electric potential equals 0.

Two stationary positive point charges, charge 1 of magnitude 3.90 nC and charge 2 of magnitude 1.80 nC, are separated by a dista

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

$v = 7793150 m/s$

Explanation:

First, we are going to calculate the electrical potential in the point middle between the two charges

Remember that the electrical potential can be calculated as:

$v = \frac{kQ}{r}$

Where $k = 8.9874 x 10^{9} \frac{Nm^{2} }{C^{2} }$

and it is satisfy the superposition principle, thus

$v = \frac{8.9874x10^{9}(3.90x10^{-9} ) }{0.23} + \frac{8.9874x10^{9}(1.80x10^{-9} ) }{0.23}$

$v = 222.73v$

The electrical potential at 10 cm from charge 1 is:

$v = \frac{8.9874x10^{9}(3.90x10^{-9} ) }{0.1} + \frac{8.9874x10^{9}(1.80x10^{-9} ) }{0.36}$

$v = 395.44 v$

Since the work - energy theorem, we have:

$q\Delta v = \frac{mv^{2} }{2}$

where q is the electron's charge and m is the electron's mass

Therefore:

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2q\Delta v}{m} }$

$v = 7793150 m/s$

A ball is dropped from 8.5 meters above the ground. If it begins at rest, how long does it take to hit the ground?

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Explanation:

Givens

d = 8.5 meters

vi = 0

a = 9.81

t = ?

Formula

d = vi * t + 1/2 a t^2

Solution

8.5 = 0 + 1/2 9.81 * t^2 multiply both sides by 2

8.5 = 4.095 t^2 Divide both sides by 4.095

8.5/4.095 = t^2

1.7329 = t^2 Take the square root of both sides

t = 1.316

It takes 1.316 seconds to hit the ground.
