How does a sound wave transfer energy to your ears?

Physics
1 answer:
inessss [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

I think it's C!

Explanation:

Sound waves travel at 343 m/s through the air and faster through liquids and solids. The waves transfer energy from the source of the sound, e.g. a drum, to its surroundings. Your ear detects sound waves when vibrating air particles cause your eardrum to vibrate. The bigger the vibrations the louder the sound.

Hope this helps!

A student conducts an experiment in which a cart is pulled by a variable applied force during a 2sec time interval. In trial 1,
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

change of momentum does not depend on the mass of the cars, as the force and time are the same all vehicles have the same change of momentum

Explanation:

Let's look for the speed of the car

     F = m a

    a = F / m

We use kinematics to find lips

    v = v₀ + a t

    v = v₀ + (F / m) t

The moment is defined by

    p = m v

The moment change

    Δp = m v - m v₀

Let's replace the speeds in this equation

    Δp = m (v₀ + F / m t) - m v₀

    Δp = m v₀  + F t - m v₀  

    Δp = F t

We see that the change of momentum does not depend on the mass of the cars, as the force and time are the same all vehicles have the same change of momentum

A person slaps her leg with her hand, which results in her hand coming to rest in a time interval of 2.65 ms from an initial spe
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

the magnitude of the average contact force exerted on the leg is  3466.98 N

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Initial velocity of hand v₀ = 5.25 m/s

final velocity of hand v = 0 m/s

time interval t = 2.65 ms = 0.00265 s

mass of hand m = 1.75 kg

We calculate force on the hand F_{hand

using equation for impulse in momentum

F_{hand × t = m( v - v₀ )

we substitute

F_{hand × 0.00265  = 1.75( 0 - 5.25 )

F_{hand × 0.00265  = 1.75( - 5.25 )

F_{hand × 0.00265  = -9.1875

F_{hand = -9.1875 / 0.00265  

F_{hand = -3466.98 N

Next we determine force on the leg F_{leg

Using Newton's third law of motion

for every action, there is an equal opposite reaction;

so, F_{leg = - F_{hand

we substitute

F_{leg = - ( -3466.98 N )

F_{leg = 3466.98 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the average contact force exerted on the leg is  3466.98 N

A mass of 1000 kg drops from a height of 10 m on a platform of negligible mass. It is desired to design a spring and dashpot on
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

k = 5\times 10^{4}\ N/m

b = 0.707\times 10^{3}

t = 7.1\times 10^{- 5}\ s

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass of the block, m = 1000 kg

Height, h = 10 m

Equilibrium position, x = 0.2 m

Now,

The velocity when the mass falls from a height of 10 m is given by the third eqn of motion:

v^{2} = u^{2} + 2gh

where

u = initial velocity = 0

g = 10m/s^{2}

Thus

v = \sqrt{2\times 10\times 10} = 10\sqrt{2}\ m/s

Force on the mass is given by:

F = mg = 1000\times 10 = 10000 N = 10\ kN

Also, we know that the spring force is given by:

F = - kx

Thus

k = \frac{F}{x} = \frac{10000}{0.2} = 5\times 10^{4}\ N/m

Now, to find the damping constant b, we know that:

F = - bv

b = \frac{F}{v} = \frac{10000}{10\sqrt{2}} = 0.707\times 10^{3}

Now,

Time required for the platform to get settled to 1 mm or 0.001 m is given by:

t = \frac{0.001}{v} = \frac{0.001}{10\sqrt{2}} = 7.1\times 10^{- 5}\ s
