Two loudspeakers are about 10 mm apart in the front of a large classroom. If either speaker plays a pure tone at a single freque

ncy of 400 HzHz, the loudness seems pretty even as you wander around the room, and gradually decreases in volume as you move farther from the speaker. If both speakers then play the same tone together, what do you hear as you wander around the room

Answer:

I hear points of low volume sound and points of high volume of sound.

Explanation:

This is because, since the two sources of sound have the same frequency and are separated by a distance, d = 10 mm, there would be successive points of constructive and destructive interference.

Since their frequencies are similar, we should have beats of high and low frequency.

So, at points of low frequency, the amplitude of the wave is smallest and there is destructive interference. The frequency at this point is the difference between the frequencies from both speakers. Since the frequency from both speakers is 400 Hz, we have, f - f' = 400 Hz - 400 Hz = 0 Hz. So, the volume of the sound is low(zero) at these points.

Also, at points of high frequency, the amplitude of the wave is highest and there is constructive interference. The frequency at this point is the sum between the frequencies from both speakers. Since the frequency from both speakers is 400 Hz, we have, (f + f') = 400 Hz + 400 Hz = 800 Hz. So, the volume of the sound is high at these points.

So, as you wander around the room, I should hear points of high and low sound across the room.

An ice cream truck is going 25m/s to the East. It accelerates to 45m/s in the same direction over 5s. What is its acceleration?
Naya [18.7K]

Hello!

We can use the kinematic equation:
a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a = acceleration (m/s²)

vf = final velocity (45 m/s)
vi = initial velocity (25 m/s)

t = time (5 sec)

Plug in the givens:
a = \frac{45-25}{5} = \frac{20}{5} = \boxed{4 m/s^2}

A car and a motorcycle start from rest at the same time on a straight track, but the motorcycle is 25.0 m behind the car. The ca
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

t = 8.45 sec

car distance d = 132.09  m

bike distance d = 157.08 m

Explanation:

GIVEN :

motorcycle is 25 m behind the car , therefore distance need to covered by bike to overtake car is 25+ d, when car reache distance d at time t

for car

by equation of motion

d  = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

u = 0 starting from rest

d = \frac{1}{2}at^2

t^2 = \frac{2d}{a}

for bike

d+25 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}*4.40t^2

t^2= \frac{d+25}{2.20}

equating time of both

\frac{2d}{a} = \frac{d+25}{2.20}

solving for d we get

d = 132 m

therefore t is= \sqrt{\frac{2d}{a}}

t =  \sqrt{\frac{2*132}{3.70}}

t = 8.45 sec

each travelled in time 8.45 sec as

for car

d = \frac{1}{2}*3.70 *8.45^2

d = 132.09  m

fro bike

d = \frac{1}{2}*4.40 *8.45^2

d = 157.08 m
