A sound wave has a speed of 345 m/s and a wavelength of 500 meters. Is it infrasonic, sonic, or ultrasonic

Physics
1 answer:
exis [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Infrasonic.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Speed = 345 m/s

Wavelength = 500 meters

To find the frequency of the sound wave;

Speed = wavelength * frequency

Frequency = speed/wavelength

Frequency = 345/500

Frequency = 0.69 Hz

Therefore, the sound wave is infrasonic.

Note: Frequency of infrasonic sound = below 20 Hertz.

Frequency of sonic sound = 20 Hz to 20,000 Hertz.

Frequency of ultrasonic sound = above 20,000 Hertz.

A box with mass (m) it's sliding along on a friction-free surface at 9.87 m/s at a height of 1.81 meters. It travels down the hi
Rus_ich [418]
A) The answer is 11.53 m/s

The final kinetic energy (KEf) is the sum of initial kinetic energy (KEi) and initial potential energy (PEi).
KEf = KEi + PEi

Kinetic energy depends on mass (m) and velocity (v)
KEf = 1/2 m * vf²
KEi = 1/2 m * vi²

Potential energy depends on mass (m), acceleration (a), and height (h):
PEi = m * a * h

So:
KEf = KEi + <span>PEi
</span>1/2 m * vf² =  1/2 m * vi² + m * a * h
..
Divide all sides by m:
1/2 vf² =  1/2 vi² + a * h

We know:
vi = 9.87 m/s
a = 9.8 m/s²
h = 1.81 m

1/2 vf² =  1/2 * 9.87² + 9.8 * 1.81
1/2 vf² = 48.71 + 17.74
1/2 vf² = 66.45
vf² = 66.45 * 2
vf² = 132.9
vf = √132.9
vf = 11.53 m/s


b) The answer is 6.78 m

The kinetic energy at the bottom (KE) is equal to the potential energy at the highest point (PE)
KE = PE

Kinetic energy depends on mass (m) and velocity (v)
KE = 1/2 m * v²

Potential energy depends on mass (m), acceleration (a), and height (h):
PE = m * a * h

KE = PE
1/2 m * v² = m * a * h

Divide both sides by m:
1/2 * v² = a * h
v = 11.53 m/s
a = 9.8 m/s² 
h = ?

1/2 * 11.53² = 9.8 * h
1/2 * 132.94 = 9.8 * h
66.47 = 9.8 * h
h = 66.47 / 9.8
h = 6.78 m

A bottle lying on the windowsill falls off and takes 4.95 seconds to reach the ground. The distance from the windowsill to the g
Liula [17]
The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is 
                        D  =  (1/2) (g) (t²) 
           Distance  =  (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)

We want to see how the time will be affected 
if  ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does. 
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '.                                                      D  =  (1/2) (g) (t²)

Multiply each side by  2 :         2 D  =            g    t²  

Divide each side by ' g ' :      2 D/g =                  t² 

Square root each side:        t = √ (2D/g)

Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:

  -- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'

                                             and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .-- 

They don't change by the same factor, because  1/g  is inside the square root.  So 't' changes the same amount as  √1/g  does.

Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly  1/6  the value of gravity on the surface of the Earth.

So we expect ' t ' to increase by  √6  =  2.45 times.

It would take the same bottle  (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the surface of the Moon.

A wire 2.80 m in length carries a current of 5.20 A in a region where a uniform magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.430 T. Calcu
galina1969 [7]

Question:

A wire 2.80 m in length carries a current of 5.20 A in a region where a uniform magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.430 T. Calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force on the wire assuming the following angles between the magnetic field and the current.

(a)60 (b)90 (c)120

Answer:

(a)5.42 N (b)6.26 N (c)5.42 N

Explanation:

From the question

Length of wire (L) = 2.80 m

Current in wire (I) = 5.20 A

Magnetic field (B) = 0.430 T

Angle are different in each part.

The magnetic force is given by

F=I \times B \times L \times sin(\theta)

So from data

F = 5.20 A \times 0.430 T \times 2.80 sin(\theta)\\\\F=6.2608 sin(\theta) N

Now sub parts

(a)

\theta=60^{o}\\\\Force = 6.2608 sin(60^{o}) N\\\\Force = 5.42 N

(b)

\theta=90^{o}\\\\Force = 6.2608 sin(90^{o}) N\\\\Force = 6.26 N

(c)

\theta=120^{o}\\\\Force = 6.2608 sin(120^{o}) N\\\\Force = 5.42 N

Consider the numbers 23.68 and 4.12. The sum of these numbers has ____ significant figures, and the product of these numbers has
damaskus [11]

Answer:multiplying will give us 7 significant figures and addition will give us 3 significant figures

Explanation:

After multiplying the two numbers they resulting value will give a value in its 4 decimal places because both given values are in 2 decimal places. The 4 dp is gotten by the addition of the decimal places of both given numbers (2+2) and

The result of its addition will give us a value in its 1dp and 3 significant figures since the addition of 23.68 and 4.12 will give us 27.8

A pulley has a mechanical advantage of 1.
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

There is no mechanical advantage

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage is possible only when the force needed to lift a load is lesser than the weight of the load.

For example, is we have a mechanical advantage of 2, the force needed to lift will be 1/2 of the weight of the load, and if we have a mechanical advantage of 4, the force needed will be 1/4 of the weight of the load.

In the attached image there are clear examples of mechanical advantage with pulleys.
