Two cellists, one seated directly behind the other in an orchestra, play the same note for the conductor who is directly in fron

t of them. Because of the separation between the cellists, destructive interference occurs at the conductor. This separation is the smallest that produces destructive interference. Would this separation increase, decrease, or remain the same if the cellists produced a note with a higher frequency

Answer:

Please see below as the answer is self-explanatory.

Explanation:

  • In order to have a destructive interference, the path difference between the sources of the sound, must be equal to an odd multiple of the semi-wavelength, as follows:
  • ⇒ d = d₂ - d₁ = n*(λ/2)
  • The minimum posible value for this distance, is when n=1, as it can be seen here:
  • dmin = λ/2
  • In any traveling wave, there exists a fixed relationship between the wave speed, the frequency and the wavelength:
  • v = λ*f
  • Therefore, assuming that the speed of sound keeps constant, if the frequency is increased, in order to keep the right side of the expression above balanced, λ must be decreased.
  • As the smallest separation that produces destructive interference is directly proportional to the wavelength, this means that this separation will decrease if the cellists produced a note with a higher frequency.

Average speed can be represented by the mathematical expression
nevsk [136]

Average speed is defined as total distance moved in total interval of time

so it is given as

v_{avg} = \frac{distance}{time}

now here is we show distance by "d" and time by"t"

then we will have mathematical expression as follows

v = \frac{d}{t}

The terminal velocity of a person falling in air depends upon the weight and the area of the person facing the fluid. Find the t
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

v=115 m/s

or

v=414 km/h

Explanation:

Given data

A_{area}=0.140m^{2}\\  p_{air}=1.21 kg/m^{3}\\  m_{mass}=80kg

To find

Terminal velocity (in meters per second and kilometers per hour)

Solution

At terminal speed the weight equal the drag force

mg=1/2*C*p_{air}*v^{2}*A_{area}\\   v=\sqrt{\frac{2*m*g}{C**p_{air}*A_{area}} }\\ Where C=0.7\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2*9.8*80}{1.21*0.14*0.7} }\\ v=115m/s

For speed in km/h(kilometers per hour)

To convert m/s to km/h you need to multiply the speed value by 3.6

v=(115*3.6)km/h\\v=414km/h

A student releases a marble from the top of a ramp. The marble increases
Fed [463]

Answer:

Vf = 69.56 cm/s

Explanation:

In order to find the final speed of the ramp, we will use the equations of motion. First we use second equation of motion to find out the acceleration of marble:

s = Vi t + (1/2)at²

where,

s = distance traveled = 160 cm

Vi = Initial Speed = 0 cm/s (since, marble starts from rest)

t = time interval = 4.6 s

a = acceleration = ?

Therefore,

160 cm = (0 cm/s)(4.6 s) + (1/2)(a)(4.6 s)²

a = (320 cm)/(4.6 s)²

a = 15.12 cm/s²

Now, we use first equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 0 cm/s + (15.12 cm/s²)(4.6 s)

<u>Vf = 69.56 cm/s</u>
