A speaker that emits sound is located at the origin of a coordinate system. Two microphones are located on the x-axis, with micr

ophone 1 at the x = 3.0 meter mark and microphone 2 at the x = 5.0 meter mark. If the speed of sound is 343 m/s, how much longer does it take a sound emitted by the speaker to reach microphone 2 than microphone 1?

Answer:

0.00583 seconds

Explanation:

Distance from mic 1 to origin = 3 m

Distance from mic 2 to origin = 5 m

Speed of sound = 343 m/s

Time taken by mic 1

t_1=\frac{\text{Distance from mic 1 to origin}}{\text{Speed of sound}}\\\Rightarrow t_1=\frac{3}{343}=0.008746\ s

t_2=\frac{\text{Distance from mic 2 to origin}}{\text{Speed of sound}}\\\Rightarrow t_2=\frac{5}{343}=0.014577\ s

Time difference = t₂ - t₁ = 0.14577-0.008746 = 0.00583 s

∴ Difference in time taken by the speaker is 0.00583 s

E<br> 3.6 What force is needed to give a mass of<br> 20 kg an acceleration of 5 m/s??
luda_lava [24]

Explanation:

  • Mass(m)= 20kg
  • Acceleration (a)= 5m/s²
  • Force(F)= ?

We know that,

  • F=ma
  • F=20×5
  • F=100N

Hence, the needed force is 100N.

How does friction make it possible for you to walk across the floor?
Tema [17]

if we are walking on a perfectly smooth ground which has no friction our force would simply cancel out the force reverted by the ground and we would fall.

We need it to help push out feet off the ground

Hope those helps :)

When a gun is fired at the shooting range, the gun recoils (moves backward). Explain this using the law of conservation of momen
12345 [234]
The total momentum is unchanged according to the law of conservation of momentum. When the gun is fired, the bullet gains a high velocity forward (positive velocity), and that velocity multiplied by its mass is the momentum the bullet gains. Therefore, the gun must gain a momentum backwards to cancel out that momentum forward, so the gun recoils back with a negative velocity.
