Meteor Infrasound A meteor that explodes in the atmosphere creates infrasound waves that can travel multiple times around the gl

obe. One such meteor produced infrasound waves with a wavelength of 6.5 km that propagated 8830 km in 8.47 h. What was the frequency of these waves?

Answer:

0.04455 Hz

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Wavelength, λ = 6.5km = 6500m

Distance travelled by the wave, x = 8830km = 8830000m

Time taken, t = 8.47hours = 8.47 * 3600 = 30492 secs

First, we find the speed of the wave:

Speed, v = distance/time = x/t

v = 8830000/30492 = 289.58 m/s

Frequency, f, is given as velocity divided by wavelength:

f = v/λ

f = 289.58/6500

f = 0.04455 Hz

What is the gauge pressure of the water right at the point p, where the needle meets the wider chamber of the syringe? neglect t
Helen [10]

Missing details: figure of the problem is attached.

We can solve the exercise by using Poiseuille's law. It says that, for a fluid in laminar flow inside a closed pipe,

\Delta P =  \frac{8 \mu L Q}{\pi r^4}

where:

\Delta P is the pressure difference between the two ends

\mu is viscosity of the fluid

L is the length of the pipe

Q=Av is the volumetric flow rate, with A=\pi r^2 being the section of the tube and v the velocity of the fluid

r is the radius of the pipe.

We can apply this law to the needle, and then calculating the pressure difference between point P and the end of the needle. For our problem, we have:

\mu=0.001 Pa/s is the dynamic water viscosity at 20^{\circ}

L=4.0 cm=0.04 m

Q=Av=\pi r^2 v= \pi (1 \cdot 10^{-3}m)^2 \cdot 10 m/s =3.14 \cdot 10^{-5} m^3/s

and r=1 mm=0.001 m

Using these data in the formula, we get:

\Delta P = 3200 Pa

However, this is the pressure difference between point P and the end of the needle. But the end of the needle is at atmosphere pressure, and therefore the gauge pressure (which has zero-reference against atmosphere pressure) at point P is exactly 3200 Pa.

A 0.0600-kilogram ball traveling at 60.0 meters
Vikki [24]
     The momentum of ball is given by:

\Delta Q=mv \\ \Delta Q=6*10^{-2}*60 \\ \Delta Q=3.6kg*m/s
  
     Since both have the same momentum, we have:

\Delta Q=MV \\ 3.6=10^{-2}V \\ \boxed {V=360m/s}

Number 3
