Two loudspeakers are placed next to each other and driven by the same source at 500 Hz. A listener is positioned in front of the

two speakers and on the line separating them, thus creating a constructive interference at the listener's ear. What minimum distance would one of the speakers be moved back away from the listener to produce destructive interference at the listener's ear? (The speed of sound = 340 m/s.)

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to wavelength as the rate of change of the speed of the wave over the frequency. Mathematically this is

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

Here,

v = Wave velocity

f = Frequency,

Replacing with our values we have that,

\lambda = \frac{340}{500}

\lambda = 0.68m

The distance to move one speaker is half this

\lambda/2 = 0.34m

Therefore the minimum distance will be 0.34m

Which substances resist pH changes? <br> Acids<br> Hydrogen ions<br> Buffers<br> Bases
Vikki [24]

The correct choice is Buffers.

Buffers contains both acids and bases in equilibrium.when base is added to buffers, they adjust the pH value by releasing hydrogen ions.when acid is added to buffers, they adjust the pH value by consuming hydrogen ions. hence these substances resist any change in their pH value by releasing or absorbing hydrogen ions.This process keeps the pH value constant.

What do the arrows in this photograph represent
babunello [35]

Answer: D. An action-reaction force pair

Explanation: When you sit in your chair, your body exerts a downward force on the chair and the chair exerts an upward force on your body. There are two forces resulting from this interaction - a force on the chair and a force on your body. Another example would be a person pushing against a wall (action force), and the wall exerts an equal and opposite force against the person.

It is determined that a certain light wave has a wavelength of 3.012 ×10−12 m. The light travels at 2.99 ×108 m/s. What is the f
horsena [70]

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity=frequency*wavelength

velocity = 2.99*10^8 m/s

frequency = ?

wavelength = 3.012*10^-12

2.99*10^8m/s = (f)(3.012*10^-12)

f=9.58*10^19 Hertz

A student is trying to determine the acceleration of a feather as she drops it to the ground. if the student is looking to achie
Anna [14]

The coordinate system should have the origin at the point where the feather is dropped and the downward direction is to be taken as positive.

All falling bodies experience acceleration towards the center of the Earth due to the force of gravitational attraction exerted on the object by the Earth. A feather, when dropped experiences an acceleration in the downward direction. Since the acceleration of the feather is in the downward direction, a feather, when dropped with zero initial velocity, has its velocity vector directed in the direction of its acceleration.

If the downward direction is taken as positive, the falling feather can be said to have a positive velocity and a positive acceleration.
