Two children use a homemade "telephone" consisting of two paper cups attached by an aluminum wire which is 8.4 m long. Determine

the time for the "sound" to travel from one cup to the other. How does this compare with the time for sound to travel the same distance through air? (speed of sound in aluminum is 5100 m/s, in air is 343 m/s)

8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance over wire of aluminium d = 8.4 m

velocity of sound in aluminium = 5100 m /s

time required = distance / velocity

= 8.4 / 5100 s

= .001647 s

velocity of sound in air = 343 m /s

time required = distance / velocity

= 8.4 / 343 s

= .024489 s

Difference of time

= .024489 - .001647

= .022842 s

= 22.842 ms .

What is the change in thermal energy E if the coefficent of kinetic friction between the box and floor is .4 , the distance the
Jet001 [13]

This question can be solved using the concept of friction energy.

The thermal energy change is b "258.4 J".

The change in thermal energy will be equal to the friction energy produced during the motion of the box.

Change\ In\ Thermal\ Energy = E = Friction\ Energy\\\\E = \mu fd

where,

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.4

f = force applied = 38 N

d = distance traveled by the box = 17 m

Therefore,

E = (0.4)(38\ N)(17\ m)

<u>E = 258.4 J</u>

defon

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume per unit time flowing   will be conserved

a₁v₁  = a₂ v₂

π r₁² x v₁ = π r₂² x v₂

(0.9 x 10⁻²)² x .35 = ( .45 x 10⁻² )² x v₂

v₂ = 1.4 m / s

What is the speed between reflected ray and the incident ray
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The speed is the same as long as the reflection is regular.

Explanation:

This is because in regular reflection, the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection in accordance with the second law of reflection.

Since speed of light depends on the angle of the light ray it makes with the reflecting surface, the speed is the same
