Your ear is capable of differentiating sounds that arrive at each ear just 0.34 ms apart, which is useful in determining where l

ow frequency sound is originating from. (a) Suppose a low-frequency sound source is placed to the right of a person, whose ears are approximately 18 cm apart, and the speed of sound generated is 340 m/s. How long is the interval between when the sound arrives at the right ear and the sound arrives at the left ear

Answer:

Δt = 5.29 x 10⁻⁴ s = 0.529 ms

Explanation:

The simple formula of the distance covered in uniform motion can be used to find the interval between when the sound arrives at the right ear and the sound arrives at the left ear.

\Delta s = v\Delta t\\\\\Delta t = \frac{\Delta s}{v}

where,

Δt = required time interval = ?

Δs = distance between ears = 18 cm = 0.18 m

v = speed of sound = 340 m/s

Therefore,

\Delta t = \frac{0.18\ m}{340\ m/s}

<u>Δt = 5.29 x 10⁻⁴ s = 0.529 ms</u>

A piece of putty and a tennis ball with the same mass are thrown against a wall with the same velocity. Which object experiences
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Explanation:

Firstly, we have to define momentum.

Momentum is define as the product of mass and velocity.

That is P = mass×velocity

Also considering the third law of motion which states that: For every action, there is equal and opposite reaction.

Moreso, considering the 2nd law of motion which states that the rate of change in the momentum of a body is equal to the applied force and takes place in the direction of the applied force.

Now, applying P = mass×velocity

They both have same mass and velocity definitely, they will both experience same momentum.

Also from the question, the both share same velocity hence, the will both hit the wall with same velocity meaning the will both feel the same impact from the wall as well. Hence the third law of motion proves this right.

the hydrometer with the density of liquid to be 800 kg metre per square is the volume of the submerged part of the hydrometer is
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Mass = 0.04 Kg

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Density = 800 kg/m³

Volume = 5 * 10^{-5} m³

To find the mass of the object;

Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.

Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.

Mathematically, density is given by the formula;

Density = \frac {mass}{volume}

Making mass the subject of formula, we have;

Mass = density * volume

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

Mass = 800 * 5 * 10^{-5}

Mass = 0.04 Kg

A straight segment of a current-carrying wire has a current element IL where I = 2.70 A and L = 3.20 cm i + 4.30 cm j. The segme
myrzilka [38]

The component of the force in negative z-direction is -0.144 N.

The given parameters;

  • <em>current in the wire, I = 2.7 A</em>
  • <em>length of the wire, L = (3.2 i + 4.3j) cm</em>
  • <em>magnetic filed, B = 1.24 i</em>

The force on the segment of the wire is calculated as follows;

F = ILBsin(\theta)

where;

  • <em>θ is the angle wire and magnetic field</em>

<em />

The force on the wire segment will be perpendicular in negative z-direction (applying right hand rule), so there won't be any x and y component of the force.

The angle between the wire and the magnetic field is calculated as follows;

\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{y}{x} )\\\\\theta = tan^{-1} (\frac{4.3}{3.2} )\\\\\theta = 53.3 \ ^0

The magnitude of the wire length is calculated as follows;

|l | = \sqrt{3.2^2 + 4.3^2} = 5.36 \ cm = 0.0536 \ m

The component of the force in negative z-direction is calculated as;

F_z = -ILB sin(\theta)\\\\F_z = -2.7 \times 0.0536 \times 1.24 \times  sin(53.3)\\\\F_z = -0.144 \ N

Thus, the component of the force in negative z-direction is -0.144 N.
