A motion sensor emits sound, and detects an echo 0.0115 s after. A short time later, it again emits a sound, and hears an echo a

fter 0.0183 s. How far has the reflecting object moved? (Speed of sound = 343 m/s) (Unit = m)​

Answer:

1.17 m

Explanation:

From the question,

s₁ = vt₁/2................ Equation 1

Where s₁ = distance of the reflecting object for the first echo, v = speed of the sound in air, t₁ = time to dectect the first echo.

Given: v = 343 m/s, t = 0.0115 s

Substitute into equation 1

s₁ = (343×0.0115)/2

s₁ = 1.97 m.

Similarly,

s₂ = vt₂/2.................. Equation 2

Where s₂ = distance of the reflecting object for the second echo, t₂ = Time taken to detect the second echo

Given: v = 343 m/s, t₂ = 0.0183 s

Substitute into equation 2

s₂ = (343×0.0183)/2

s₂ = 3.14 m

The distance moved by the reflecting object from s₁ to s₂ = s₂-s₁

s₂-s₁ =  (3.14-1.97) m = 1.17 m

What would be the answer for this and how?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

B. 6 cm

Explanation:

First, we calculate the spring constant of a single spring:

k = \frac{F}{\Delta x}\\

where,

k = spring constant of single spring = ?

F = Force Applied = 10 N

Δx = extension = 4 cm = 0.04 m

Therefore,

k = \frac{10\ N}{0.04\ m}\\k =  250\ N/m\\

Now, the equivalent resistance of two springs connected in parallel, as shown in the diagram, will be:

k_{eq} = k + k\\k_{eq} = 2k = 2(250\ N/m)\\k_{eq} = 500\ N/m\\

For a load of 30 N, applying Hooke's Law:

\Delta x = \frac{F}{k_{eq}}\\\\\Delta x = \frac{30\ N}{500\ N/m}\\\\\Delta x = 0.06\ m = 6\ cm\\

Hence, the correct option is:

<u>B. 6 cm</u>
