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)

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 .

A person drives 20 miles north and 45 miles east. What is the angle of the resultant straight to their destination?
Alex787 [66]
Let us take east and north as the positive x and y-axes should the motion be plotted in a cartesian plane. Thus, the x value is 45 miles and the y value is 20. The tangent of an angle is equal to the ratio of y to x.

   tanθ = y / x

Substituting,

   tanθ = 20/45 = 0.44

The value of θ is 23.96°.
