Answer:

Wave X has a shorter wavelength.

Explanation:

The relation between the speed of a wave, its wavelength and frequency is given by :

v=f\lambda

It can be seen that the relationship between the frequency and wavelength is inverse.

In this problem, it is mentioned that two sound waves (wave X and wave Y) are moving through a medium at the same speed. The frequency of wave X is greater than wave Y. Then it would mean that wave X have shorter wavelength than wave Y (due to inverse relation).

Two identical loudspeakers, speaker 1 and speaker 2, are 2.0 m apart and are emitting 1700-hz sound waves into a room where the
Debora [2.8K]


Given the following in the problem:

Distances : 2.0 m and 4.0 m
Sound waves : 1700 hz
Speed of sound : 340 m/s

Get the wavelength of the sound by using the formula: 
Lambda = speed of sound/sound waves
Lambda = 340 m/s / 1700 hz
Lambda = 0.2 
Get the path length difference to the point from the two speakers 
L1 = 4mL2 = sqrt (42+ 22) m
Delta = 4.47

x = delta / lambda

If the outcome is nearly an integer, the waves strengthen at the point. If it is nearly an integer +0.5 the waves interfere destructively at the point. If it is neither the point is somewhat in in the middle.

Solving x = (4.47 – 4) / (0.2) = 2.35 an integer +0.5 so it’s a point of destructive interference.

You are holding a finishing sander with your right hand. THe sander has a flywheel which spins counterclockwise as seen from beh
ryzh [129]

Answer:

c. turn downward

Explanation:

From the information given:

To find the tendency of the sander;

We need to apply the right-hand rule torque; whereby we consider the direction of the flywheel, the direction at which the torque is acting, and the movement of the sander toward the right.

Since the flywheel of the sander is in counterclockwise movement, hence the torque direction will be outward placing on the wall. However, provided that the movement of the sander is toward the right, then there exists an opposite force that turns downward which showcases the tendency in the sander is downward.

A 2.5-L tank initially is empty, and we want to fill it with 10 g of ammonia. The ammonia comes from a line with saturated vapor
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

592.92 x 10³ Pa

Explanation:

Mole of ammonia required = 10 g / 17 =0 .588 moles

We shall have to find pressure of .588 moles of ammonia at 30 degree having volume of 2.5 x 10⁻³ m³. We can calculate it as follows .

From the relation

PV = nRT

P x 2.5 x 10⁻³ =  .588 x 8.32 x ( 273 + 30 )

P = 592.92 x 10³ Pa

The base of a hexagonal prism has an apothem measuring 10 inches and an area of 346.41 square inches. the prism is 12 inches tal
tigry1 [53]

The approximate lateral area of the prism is determined as 831 square inches.

<h3>What is lateral area of the hexagonal prism?</h3>

The lateral area of the hexagonal prism is calculated as follows;

LA = PH

where;

  • P is perimeter of the prism
  • H is height

A = ¹/₂Pa

where;

  • a is apothem = 10 inches
  • A is base area = 346.41 in²

346.41 = ¹/₂(10)P

346.41 = 5P

P = 346.41/5

P = 69.282 inches

LA = PH

LA = 69.282 x 12

LA = 831.38 in²
