Two small stereo speakers are driven in step by the same variable-frequency oscillator. Their sound is picked up by a microphone

arranged as shown. For what fundamental frequency does their sound at the speakers produce constructive interference? The speed of sound is 340m/sec.

Answer:

The fundamental frequency at which the sound of speakers at the microphone produce constructive interference is 801.076458 Hz

Explanation:

For a given arrangement having constructive interference, we have;

R₁ - R₂ = 2·x = 0 + n·λ

The distance from one speaker to the microphone. R₁ = 4.50 m

The distance between the two speakers = 2.00 m

The angle formed between the direction from the microphone to the speaker closest and the directional path between the speakers = 90°

Therefore, by Pythagoras's theorem, the distance from the speaker furthest from the microphone, to the microphone, 'R₂' is given as follows;

R₂ = √(4.50² + 2.00²) = √(24.25) = 4.9244289009 ≈ 4.924

∴ R₂ ≈ 4.9244289 m

R₂ - R₁ = 4.9244289 m - 4.5 m = 0.4244289 m

For constructive interference, R₂ - R₁ =0.4244289 m = n·λ

For n = 1, we have;

R₂ - R₁ =0.4244289 m = n·λ = 1 × λ = λ

λ = 0.4244589 m

f = v/λ = 340 m/sec/(0.4244289 m) ≈ 801.076458 Hz

Therefore the lowest possible fundamental frequency at which the speakers produce constructive interference, f = 801.076458 Hz

A motorcycle has a mass of 2.50×10^2. A constant force is exerted on it for 60.0s. The motorcycles initial velocity is 6.00 m/s
Margarita [4]

The change in momentum is 5500 kg m/s

Explanation:

The change in momentum of an object is given by

\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

In this problem, we have:

m=2.50\cdot 10^2 kg (mass of the motorcycle)

v=28.0 m/s (final velocity)

u=6.0 m/s (initial velocity)

Therefore, the change in momentum is

\Delta p=(2.50\cdot 10^2)(28.0-6.0)=5500 kg m/s

You may have noticed runaway truck lanes while driving in the mountains. These gravel-filled lanes are designed to stop trucks t
kati45 [8]

Answer:

The  coefficient of kinetic friction  \mu_k =  0.724

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  length of the lane is  l =  36.0 \  m

    The speed of the truck is  v  =  22.6\  m/s

     

Generally from the work-energy theorem we have that  

    \Delta KE  =   N  *  \mu_k *  l

Here N  is the normal force acting on the truck which is mathematically represented as

     \Delta KE is the change in kinetic energy which is mathematically represented as

        \Delta KE =  \frac{1}{2} *  m *  v^2

=>     \Delta KE =  0.5  *  m *  22.6^2

=>      \Delta KE =  255.38m

        255.38m =    m *  9.8  *  \mu_k *   36.0

=>     255.38  =    352.8  *  \mu_k

=>   \mu_k =  0.724
