An aircraft maintenance technician walks past a tall hangar door that acts like a single slit for sound entering the hangar. Out

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

The first minimum would be observed at 41.57°

Explanation:

v = 340m/s = speed of sound

f = 610Hz

d = 0.840m

λ = ?

Mλ = wsinθ

m = mth order minima

λ = wavelength incident on the single slit

θ = angular position of the mth minima

But, λ = v / f

λ = 340 / 610 = 0.557m

θ = sin⁻(mλ/d)

θ = sin⁻ [(1 * 0.557) / 0.840]

θ = sin⁻ 0.6635

θ = 41.57°

The first minimum would be observed at 41.57°

a care starting from rest has an acceleration 0.3 m/s square, calculate the velocity and distance travelled by this car after 2

Anna [14]

Answer:

Final velocity (v) = 36 m/s

Distance traveled (s) = 2,160 m

Explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 0

Acceleration (a) = 0.3 m/s

Time travel (t) = 2 minutes = 120 seconds

Find:

Final velocity (v) = ?

Distance traveled (s) = ?

Computation:

v = u + at

v = 0 + 0.3(120)

v = 0.3(120)

v = 36 m/s

Final velocity (v) = 36 m/s

Distance traveled (s) = ut + (1/2)at²

Distance traveled (s) = (0.5)(0.3 × 120 × 120)

Distance traveled (s) = 2,160 m

A spaceship ferrying workers to Moon Base I takes a straight-line path from the earth to the moon, a distance of 384,000 km. Sup

Tema [17]

Answer:

a) v = 19,149.6 m/s

b) f = 95%

c) t = 346.5min

Explanation:

First put all values in metric units:

$15.8 min*\frac{60s}{1min}=948s$

The equation of motion you need is:

$v_f = a*t+v_0$

where $v_f$ is the final velocity, a is acceleration and t is time in hours.

Since the spaceship starts from 0 velocity:

$v_f = a*t = 20.2*948 = 19,149.6 m/s$

Next, you need to calculate the distances traveled on each interval, considering that both starting and final intervals travel the same distance because the acceleration and time are equal. For this part you need the next motion equation:

$x=\frac{v_0+v_f}{2}t$

solving for first and last interval:

Since the spaceship starts and finish with 0 velocity:

$x=\frac{v}{2}t=\frac{19,149.6}{2}948=9,076,910.4m=9,076.9104km$

Then the ship traveled $384,000-9,076.9104*2 = 361,846.1792km$ at constant speed, which means that it traveled:

$f_{constant_speed} =\frac{ x_{constant_speed}}{x_total} =\frac{361,846.1792}{380,000} =0.95$

Which in percentage is 95% of the trip.

to calculate total time you need to calculate the time used during constant speed:

$t = \frac{361,846,179.2}{19,149.6} = 18,895.75s = 314min$

That added to the other interval times:

$t_{total} = t_1+t_2+t_3=15.8+314.93+15.8=346.5min$

The car in the figure travels at a constant speed along the road shown. Draw vector showing its acceleration at the point C if t

yuradex [85]

Answer:

The vector form is as shown in the attachment

Explanation:

The figure as shown in the diagram, indicates that the car is moving along the road at a constant speed. Centripetal acceleration comes into play for an object moving in a circular motion at uniform speed. The centripetal acceleration is the acceleration experienced by an object while in uniform circular motion.

Mathematically from centripetal acceleration; a = v2/r

The equation shows that there is an inverse relationship between the acceleration and the radius of curvature as such the radius of curvature at the point A will be more than the radius of curvature at the point C, this shows that the centripetal acceleration at point C will be more than the centripetal acceleration at point A.

The attachment shows the figure and the representation in vectorial form.
