Describe how an oscilloscope should be used to measure the frequency of the sound wave from the sonometer

Physics
1 answer:
ratelena [41]3 years ago

Answer:

            T = reading (cm) time base (s / cm)

            f = 1 / T

Explanation:

An oscilloscope is a piece of equipment that allows you to visualize and measure a wave that reaches you, in the case of having a sonometer this transforms the sound wave into an electrical signal to be introduced through one of the voltage channels of the equipment, on the screen we will see the oscillating alternating signal, if it is fixed we can make the reading, if it is moving the time base and the trigger must be adjusted to stop it.

In the oscilloscope we can read the period of the signal, this is the time it takes for the signal to repeat itself with this value, we can calculate the frequency with the formula, for the reading of the period the distance is measured on the labeled screen and multiplied by the time base

         

            T = reading (cm) time base (s / cm)

            f = 1 / T

The current theory of the structure of the Earth, called plate tectonics, tells us that the continents are in constant motion.
lesya [120]

Answer:

(a) m = 1.6 x 10²¹ kg

(b) K.E = 2.536 x 10¹¹ J

(c) v = 7.12 x 10⁵ m/s

Explanation:

(a)

First we find the volume of the continent:

V = L*W*H

where,

V = Volume  of Slab = ?

L = Length of Slab = 4450 km = 4.45 x 10⁶ m

W = Width of Slab = 4450 km = 4.45 x 10⁶ m

H = Height of Slab = 31 km = 3.1 x 10⁴ m

Therefore,

V = (4.45 x 10⁶ m)(4.45 x 10⁶ m)(3.1 x 10⁴ m)

V = 6.138 x 10¹⁷ m³

Now, we find the mass:

m = density*V

m = (2620 kg/m³)(6.138 x 10¹⁷ m³)

<u>m = 1.6 x 10²¹ kg</u>

<u></u>

(b)

The kinetic energy will be:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

where,

v = speed = (1 cm/year)(0.01 m/1 cm)(1 year/365 days)(1 day/24 h)(1 h/3600 s)

v = 3.17 x 10⁻¹⁰ m/s

Therefore,

K.E = (1/2)(1.6 x 10²¹ kg)(3.17 x 10⁻¹⁰ m/s)²

<u>K.E = 2.536 x 10¹¹ J</u>

<u></u>

(c)

For the same kinetic energy but mass = 77 kg:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

2.536 x 10¹¹ J = (1/2)(77 kg)v²

v = √(2)(2.536 x 10¹¹ J)

<u>v = 7.12 x 10⁵ m/s</u>

The distance covered is 25.9 m.

<h3>How deep is the cave?</h3>

We know that the speed of sound refers to the speed with which an sound moves in an object.

Given that;

speed of sound = 345m/s

Time taken =  0.15s

We know that;

v = 2d/t

v = speed of sound

d = distance

t = time taken

vt = 2d

d = vt/2

d = 345m/s *  0.15s/2

d = 25.9 m
