At stp conditions (
), the speed of sound is
The sound wave moves by uniform motion, so we can use the basic relationship between space, time and velocity:
where S is the distance covered by the sound wave in a time t. In our problem, t=3.00 s, therefore the distance covered by the sound wave is
Answer:
Newton
Explanation:
The SI unit of force is the newton, symbol N. The base units relevant to force are: The metre, unit of length — symbol m. The kilogram, unit of mass — symbol kg.
Answer:
It will be cut in half
Explanation:
The diffraction of a slit is given by the formula
a sin θ = m where
a = width of the slit,
λ = wavelength and
m = integer that determines the order of diffraction.
Next we divide both sides by a, we have
sin θ = m λ / a
Also, recall that
a’ = 2 a
Then we substitute in the previous equation
2asin θ' = m λ, if divide by 2a, we have
sin θ' = (m λ / 2a).
Now again, from the first equation, we said that sin θ = m λ / a, so we substitute
sin θ ’= sin θ / 2
Then we use trigonometry to find the width, we say
tan θ = y / L
Since the angle is small, we then have
tan θ = sin θ / cos θ
tan θ = sin θ, this then means that
sin θ = y / L
we will then substitute
y’ / L = y/L 1/2
y' = y / 2
this means that when the slit width is doubled the pattern width will then be halved
Answer:
1.6 m/s²
Explanation:
Weight equals mass times acceleration due to gravity.
F = mg
14.4 N = (9 kg) g
g = 1.6 m/s²
