If the energies sound in the device is microphone what is the energy out
Katen [24]

Answer:

Microphones are a type of transducer - a device which converts energy from one form to another. Microphones convert acoustical energy (sound waves) into electrical energy (the audio signal). Different types of microphone have different ways of converting energy but they all share one thing in common: The diaphragm.

A brick and a feather fall to the earth at their respective terminal velocities. Which objectexperiences the greater force of ai
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Under the reasonable assumption that the brick has more mass than the feather, the brick experiences a greater force of air friction.

Explanation:

<u>Objects at terminal velocity</u>, only under the influence of gravity, have maximized their speed and <u>have an acceleration of zero</u>.  Thus, neither object is accelerating.

Recall Newton's second law: \sum {\vec {F}}=m \vec {a}

Since acceleration for each object is zero, the sum of the force acting on each of those objects must also be zero.

Since the only forces acting on the objects are gravity and the force of air friction, in order to zero out, <u>the force of air friction must be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force of gravity</u>.

Recall that near the surface of the earth, F_{gravity}=mg, so <u>the Force of Gravity acting on an object is directly proportional to the object's mass</u>.  <em>(A similar argument could be made even if this were not taking place on the surface of the earth, so long as the objects were the same distance from the object providing gravitational influence).</em>

If the masses of the objects are different, <u>the object with the greater mass will experience</u> a larger force of gravity, and hence <u>a larger force of air friction</u> at terminal velocity.  

Under the reasonable assumption that the brick has more mass than the feather, the brick experiences a greater force of air friction.

In a ballistics test, a 52g bullet hits a sand bag and stops after moving 1.34 m. If the initial bullat
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Friction force on the bullet is 58.7 N opposite to its velocity

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the bullet is 55 m/s

after travelling into the sand bag by distance d = 1.34 m it comes to rest

so final speed

v_f = 0

now we can use kinematics top find the acceleration of the bullet

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

so we have

0 - 55^2 = 2(a)(1.34)

a = -1128.7 m/s^2

now by Newton's II law we know that

F = ma

so we have

F = (0.052)(-1128.7)

F = -58.7 N

Which wave property changes when two waves interfere in the same medium?
LuckyWell [14K]
<span>When two waves of same frequency travel in a medium simultaneously in the same direction then, due to their superposition, the resultant intensity at any point of the medium is different from the sum of intensities of the two waves. At certain points the intensity of the resultant wave has a large value while at some points it has a very small or zero. This is called wave interference.</span>

A ball is dropped from rest at a point 12 m above the ground into a smooth, frictionless chute. The ball exits the chute 2 m abo
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

29,7 m

Explanation:

We need to devide the problem in two parts:

A)  Energy

B) MRUV

<u>Energy:</u>

Since no friction between pint (1) and (2), then the energy conservatets:

Energy = constant ----> Ek(cinética) + Ep(potencial) = constant

Ek1 + Ep1 = Ek2 + Ep2

Ek1 = 0  ; because V1 is zero (the ball is "dropped")

Ep1 = m*g*H1

Ep2= m*g*H2

Then:

Ek2  = m*g*(H1-H2)

By definition of cinetic energy:

m*(V2)²/2 = m*g*(H1-H2) --->  V2 = \sqrt{(2*g*(H1-H2)}

Replaced values:  V2 = 14,0 m/s

<u>MRUV:</u>

The decomposition of the velocity (V2), gives a for the horizontal component:

V2x = V2*cos(α)

Then the traveled distance is:

X = V2*cos(α)*t.... but what time?

The time what takes the ball hit the ground.

Since: Y3 - Y2 = V2*t + (1/2)*(-g)*t²

In the vertical  axis:

Y3 = 0 ; Y2 = H2 = 2 m

Reeplacing:

-2 = 14*t + (1/2)*(-9,81)*t²

solving the ecuation, the only positive solution is:

t = 2,99 sec ≈ 3 sec

Then, for the distance:

X = V2*cos(α)*t = (14 m/s)*(cos45°)*(3sec) ≈ 29,7 m
