A microphone is attached to a spring that is suspended from the ceiling, as the drawing indicates. Directly below on the floor i

s a stationary 440-Hz source of sound. The microphone vibrates up and down in simple harmonic motion with a period of 2.0 s. The difference between the maximum and minimum sound frequencies detected by the microphone is 2.1 Hz. Ignoring any reflections of sound in the room and using 343 m /s for the speed of sound, determine the amplitude of the simple harmonic motion.

Answer:

$0.261\ \text{m}$

Explanation:

$\Delta f$ = Change in frequency = 2.1 Hz

$f$ = Frequency of source of sound = 440 Hz

$v_m$ = Maximum of the microphone

$v$ = Speed of sound = 343 m/s

$T$ = Time period = 2 s

We have the relation

$\Delta f=2f\dfrac{v_m}{v}\\\Rightarrow v_m=\dfrac{\Delta fv}{2f}\\\Rightarrow v_m=\dfrac{2.1\times 343}{2\times 440}\\\Rightarrow v_m=0.8185\ \text{m/s}$

Amplitude is given by

$A=\dfrac{v_m T}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{0.8185\times 2}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow A=0.261\ \text{m}$

The amplitude of the simple harmonic motion is $0.261\ \text{m}$ .

if a ball is released from a height 80cm how long would it take the ball to reach the ground when g= 10m per seconds

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The ball took 0.4 seconds

Explanation:

» From the second newton's equation of motion.

${ \boxed{ \tt{s = ut + \frac{1}{2} {gt}^{2} }}}$

s is displacement, s = 80cm, s = 0.8 meters
u is initial velocity, u = 0 [ from rest ]
g is 10 m/s²

${ \tt{0.8 = (0 \times t) + ( \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times {t}^{2} )}} \\ \\ { \tt{0.8 = 5 {t}^{2} }} \\ { \tt{ {t}^{2} = 0.16 }} \\ { \tt{t = \sqrt{0.16} }} \\ \\ { \underline{ \underline{ \tt{ \: time = 0.4 \: seconds \: \: }}}}$

A natural water molecule (H2O) in its vapor state has an electric dipole moment of magnitude, p = 6.2 x 10-30 C.m. (a) Find the

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

a $D = 3.9 *10^{-12} \ m$

b $\tau_{max} = 1.24 *10^{-25} \ N\cdot m$

c $W = 2.48 *10^{-25} J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The magnitude of electric dipole moment is $\sigma = 6.2 *10^{-30} \ C \cdot m$

The electric field is $E = 2*10^{4} \ N/C$

The distance between the positive and negative charge center is mathematically evaluated as

$D = \frac{\sigma }{10 e}$

Where e is the charge on one electron which has a constant value of $e = 1.60 *10^{-19} \ C$

Substituting values

$D = \frac{6.20 *10^{-30}}{10 * (1.60 *10^{-19})}$

$D = 3.9 *10^{-12} \ m$

The maximum torque is mathematically represented as

$\tau_{max} = \sigma * E * sin (\theta)$

Here $\theta = 90^o$

This because at maximum the molecule is perpendicular to the field

substituting values

$\tau_{max} = 6.2 *10^{-30} * 2*10^{4} sin ( 90)$

$\tau_{max} = 1.24 *10^{-25} \ N\cdot m$

The workdone is mathematically represented as

$W = V_{(180)} - V_{0}$

where $V_{(180)}$ is the potential energy at 180° which is mathematically evaluated as

$V_{(180) } = - \sigma * E cos (180)$

Where the negative signifies that it is acting against the field

substituting values

$V_{(180) } = - 6.20 *10^{-30} * 2.0 *10^{4} cos (180)$

$V_{(180) } = 1.24*10^{-25} J$

and

$V_{(0)}$ is the potential energy at 0° which is mathematically evaluated as

$V_{(0) } = - \sigma * E cos (0)$

substituting values

$V_{(0) } = - 6.20 *10^{-30} * 2.0 *10^{4} cos (0)$

$V_{(0) } =- 1.24*10^{-25} J$

So $W = 1.24 *10^{-25} - [-1.24 *10^{-25}]$

$W = 2.48 *10^{-25} J$
