What is the frequency of a sound wave directly related to?

1 answer:

8 0

The frequency of a sound wave is the number of cycles of a sound wave per second or Hertz (Hz). The frequency can be calculated by dividing wavelength by time (Figure 1.3). A small wavelength will yield a higher frequency, whereas a larger wavelength will yield a smaller frequency.

Question 1.

mass = 4500 kg
potential energy (p.e) = 67500 J

now, we know :

=》

$p.e = mgh$

=》

$67500 = 4500 \times 10 \times h$

=》

$67500 = 45000 \times h$

=》

$h = \dfrac{67500}{45000}$

=》

$h = 1.5 \: m$

note : if we take acceleration due to gravity as 9.8, then height = 1.53 m

Question 2.

mass = 4500 kg
kinetic energy = 63000 j

we know,

=》

$k.e = \dfrac{1}{2} mv {}^{2}$

=》

$63000 = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 4500 \times {v}^{2}$

=》

${v}^{2} = \dfrac{63000 \times 2}{4500}$

=》

${v}^{2} = 28$

=》

$v = \sqrt{28}$

=》

$v = 2 \sqrt{7} \: \: ms {}^{ - 1}$

=》

$5.29 \: \: ms {}^{ - 1}$

Use the worked example above to help you solve this problem. An Alaskan rescue plane drops a package of emergency rations to str

Vlad [161]

Answer:

(a) The package lands 682 meters horizontally ahead from the point the package was dropped from the plane

(b) The horizontal component = 39.0 m/s

The vertical component = 171.55 m/s

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

Velocity of the plane, vₓ = 39.0 m/s

Height of the plane above the ground, h = 1.50 × 10² m = 1,500 m

(a) The time, t, before the package hits the ground when dropped from the plane is given by the relation;

h = u·t + 1/2×g×t²

Where:

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

u = Initial vertical velocity = 0 m/s

Hence;

1500 = 0×t + 1/2 × 9.81 × t² = 4.905·t²

∴ t = √(1500/4.905) = 17.49 s

The horizontal distance the package travels before landing = 17.49 × 39 ≈ 682 m

The package lands 682 meters horizontally ahead from the point the package was dropped from the plane

(b) The vertical velocity, $v_y$ , of the package just before landing is given by the relation;

$v_y$ ² = u² + 2·g·h

u = 0 m/s

∴ $v_y$ ² = 0 + 2×9.81×1500 = 29430 m²/s²

$v_y$ = √29430 = 171.55 m/s

Hence the horizontal component = 39.0 m/s

The vertical component = 171.55 m/s

$tan \theta = \dfrac{v_y}{v_x} = \dfrac{171.55}{39.0 } = 4.4$

∴ θ = tan⁻¹(4.4) = 77.19°.

A ray of white light moves through the air and strikes the surface of water in a beaker. The index of refraction of the water is

Naily [24]

Answer:

except ii and iii

Explanation:

The angle of reflection is the angle to the normal the white rays strikes the water surface and it is the incidence angle. Since the white light is moving from less dense medium to a denser medium or a medium with a higher refractive index; the angle of refraction will be less than 30 degrees. Total internal reflection cannot occur because the white light is traveling from a less dense medium to a denser medium.

A closed system’s internal energy changes by 178 J as a result of being heated with 658 J of energy.

statuscvo [17]

Internal energy of the system changes by ΔE = 178 J.
Heat given to the system = Q = +658 J.

According to the first law of thermodynamics,
ΔE = Q + W
178 = 658 + W
∴ W = 178-658 = -480 J

Minus sign indicates that work is done by the system.
