Two loudspeakers 6.0 m apart are playing the same frequency. If you stand 12.0 m in front of the plane of the speakers, centered

between them, you hear a sound of maximum intensity. As you walk parallel to the plane of the speakers, staying 12.0 m in front of them, you first hear a minimum of sound intensity when you are directly in front of one of the speakers.Part A)What is the frequency of the sound? Assume a sound speed of 340 m/s.I got 120.02 Hz. This is right, I checked.Part B)If you stay 12.0 m directly in front of one of the speakers, for what other frequencies between 100 Hz and 700 Hz is there a minimum sound intensity at this point?Express your answer numerically. If there is more than one answer, enter your answers in ascending order separated by commas.

Answer:

The three frequencies between 100 and 700 Hz for minimum sound are

120.02 Hz, 360.06 Hz and 600.1 Hz

Explanation:

A) First of all, at the starting point centred between the speakers, as the sound is at a maximum, it means the speakers are in phase.

Thus,

When standing exactly in front of one speaker, you are 12 m from that speaker, and

√(6² + 12²) = 13.4164m from the other speaker.

Now,for minimum sound, the speakers must be out 180 degrees out of phase.

Thus; 13.4164 - 12 = 1.4164 m is an even multiple of half wavelengths of the sound.

The wavelength of sound is gotten from λ*F = V where λ is the wavelenth in m, F is the frequency in Hz, and V is the speed of sound in m/s.

So a half wavelength (H) = λ/2

So,

2H*F/(2n + 1) = V

F = (2n + 1)*V/(2H)

where n is an integer.

So,

The lowest frequency is when n = 0

Thus,

F = V/(2H)

F = 340/(2*1.4164) = 120.02 Hz

B) The next will be when n = 1

(2n + 1) = 3

F = 3 * 120.02 = 360.06 Hz

At n = 2

F = 5*120.02 = 600.10 Hz

Thus, The three frequencies between 100 and 700 Hz for minimum sound are

120.02 Hz, 360.06 Hz and 600.1 Hz

You are a crane operator using a wrecking ball to demolish an old building. You can choose to use a 100-kg ball or a 150-kg ball
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The two balls, although of different masses, could be made to have the same demolishing force by setting the velocity of the 100 kg ball to 1.5 times the velocity of the 150 kg ball.

That is if V₁ is the velocity of the 150 kg ball and  V₂ is the velocity of the 100 kg ball then V₂  = 1.5×V₁ for the demolishing effect of the two balls to be equal.

Explanation:

To answer the we are required to explain the meaning of momentum and state its properties

Momentum is a physical property of an object in motion. It indicates the amount of motion inherent in the object.  An object in motion is said to have momentum

The types of momentum possessed by an object can be classified into either

1, Linear momentum or

2. Angular momentum

An object moving with a velocity, v has linear momentum while a spinning object has an angular momentum

The momentum is given by the formula

P = m × V

Where m = mass and

V = velocity

Newtons second law of motion states that, the force acting on an object is equivalent to the rate of change of momentum produced and acting in the direction of the force

Properties of momentum

From the above statements it means that the two balls can be made equivalent by having the appropriate amount of speed. That iis the two balls can have the same momentum thus for equal momentum effect, we have

150 kg × V₁ = 100 kg × V₂

or V₂ = 1.5×V₁
