"The smallest insects that a bat can detect are approximately the size of one wavelength of the sound the bat makes. What is the

minimum frequency of sound waves required for a bat to detect an insect that is 0.0057 m long? (assume the speed of sound is 340 m/s.)"

Answer:

Frequency, f = 59.6 kHz

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of sound, v = 340 m/s

The bat can detect an insect that is 0.0057 m long, \lambda=0.0057\ m

We need to find the minimum frequency of sound waves required for a bat to detect an insect. The speed of a wave is given by :

v=f\lambda\\\\f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{340\ m/s}{0.0057\ m}\\\\f=59649.12\ Hz

or

f = 59.6 kHz

So, the frequency detected by the bat is 59.6 kHz.

Two wheels have the same mass and radius of 4.2 kg and 0.42 m, respectively. One has (a) the shape of a hoop and the other (b) t
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

τsolid = 0.15 N•m

τhoop = 0.30 N•m

Explanation:

θ = ½αt²

α = 2θ/t² = 2(14)/8.3² = 0.406445 rad/s²

Solid disk I = ½mr² = ½(4.2)0.42² = 0.37044 kg•m²

τ = Iα = 0.37044(0.406445) = 0.150563... N•m

Hoop disk I = mr² = (4.2)0.42² = 0.74088 kg•m²

τ = Iα = 0.74088(0.406445) = 0.301127... N•m
