A train blows its whistle to warn traffic of its approach. The sound waves are moving at a speed of 331 m/s. The frequency of the waves is 15 Hz. What is the wavelength?

Explanation :

It is given that :

speed of sound waves, v=331\ m/s

frequency of sound waves, \nu=15\ Hz

The relation between speed of sound wave and wavelength is

v=\nu \lambda

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{\nu}

\lambda=\dfrac{331\ m/s}{15\ Hz}

\lambda=22.06\ m

The Event Horizon Telescope needs a 22 micro-arcsecond resolution to view the event horizon regions around black holes. If the a

Answer:

14869817.395 m

Explanation:

\theta=22 microarcsecond

λ = Wavelength = 1.3 mm

Converting to radians we get

22\times 10^{-6}\frac{\pi}{180\times 3600}\ radians

From Rayleigh Criterion

\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{D}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{\lambda}{\theta}\\\Rightarrow D=1.22\frac{1.3\times 10^{-3}}{22\times 10^{-6}\frac{\pi}{180\times 3600}}\\\Rightarrow D=14869817.395\ m

Diameter of the effective primary objective is 14869817.395 m

It is not possible to build one telescope with a diameter of 14869817.395 m. But, we need this type of telescope. So, astronomers use an array of radio telescopes to achieve a virtual diameter in order to observe objects that are the size of supermassive black hole's event horizon.

The outer layer of cable on a cable reel is 16.2 cm from the center of the reel. The reel is initially stationary and can rotate
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

B. w=12.68rad/s

C. α=3.52rad/s^2

Explanation:

B)

We can solve this problem by taking into account that (as in the uniformly accelerated motion)

\theta=\omega_{0}t+\frac{1}{2}\alpha t^{2}\\\theta = \frac{s}{r}      ( 1 )

where w0 is the initial angular speed, α is the angular acceleration, s is the arc length and r is the radius.

In this case s=3.7m, r=16.2cm=0.162m, t=3.6s and w0=0. Hence, by using the equations (1) we have

\theta=\frac{3.7m}{0.162m}=22.83rad

22.83rad=\frac{1}{2}\alpha (3.6s)^2\\\\\alpha=2\frac{(22.83rad)}{3.6^2s}=3.52\frac{rad}{s^2}

to calculate the angular speed w we can use\alpha=\frac{\omega _{f}-\omega _{i}}{t _{f}-t _{i}}\\\\\omega_{f}=\alpha t_{f}=(3.52\frac{rad}{s^2})(3.6)=12.68\frac{rad}{s}

Thus, wf=12.68rad/s

C) We can use our result in B)

\alpha=3.52\frac{rad}{s^2}

I hope this is useful for you

An ideal spring obeys Hooke’s law, F~ = −k~x. A mass of 0.50 kilogram hung vertically from this spring stretches the spring 0.07
masha68 [24]

The spring constant is 66.7 N/m

Explanation:

First of all, we have to find the magnitude of the force acting on the spring. This is equal to the weight of the mass hanging on the spring, which is:

F=mg

where:

m = 0.50 kg is the mass of the object

g=10 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Substituting,

F=(0.50)(10)=5 N

Now we can use Hookes' law to find the constant of the spring:

F=-kx

where

F is the force applied

k is the spring constant

x is the stretching of the spring

Here we have:

F = 5 N

While the stretching is

x = 0.075 m

Therefore, ignoring the negative sign in the formula (which only tells us the direction), we find the spring constant:

k=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{5}{0.075}=66.7 N/m
