The tuning fork has a frequency of 426.7 is found to cause resonance in a closed column of air measuring 0.186 (the diameter of

lidiya [134]

Answer:

The velocity of the tuning fork sound is 317.4648 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The frequency of the fork, f = 426.7 Hz

The length of the closed air column, L = 0.186 m

The diameter of the tube, d = 0.15 m

At the fundamental frequency in a closed tube, we have;

λ = 4·L

Where;

λ = The wavelength of the wave

L = The length of the tube

From the equation for the velocity of a wave, we have;

v = f·λ

Where;

v = The velocity of the (sound) wave

f = The frequency of the wave = 426.7 Hz

λ = 4·L = 4 × 0.186 m = 0.744 m

∴ v = 426.7 Hz × 0.744 m = 317.4648 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the sound produced by the tuning fork, v = 317.4648 m/s

A monkey running through the jungle goes 0.198 km straight to the East, then turns 15.8° deflection from straight East toward th

inn [45]

Answer:

$|\vec r|=339.82\ m$

$\theta=-6.67^o$

Explanation:

<u>Displacement </u>

It's a vector magnitude that measures the space traveled by a particle between an initial and a final position. The total displacement can be obtained by adding the vectors of each individual displacement. In the case of two displacements:

$\vec r=\vec r_1+\vec r_2$

Given a vector as its polar coordinates (r,\theta), the corresponding rectangular coordinates are computed with

$x=rcos\theta$

$y=rsin\theta$

And the vector is expressed as

$\vec z==$

The monkey first makes a displacement given by (0.198 km,0°). The angle is 0 because it goes to the East, the zero-reference for angles. Thus the first displacement is

$\vec r_1==\ km=\ m$

The second move is (145 m , -15.8°). The angle is negative because it points South of East. The second displacement is

$\vec r_2==\ m$

The total displacement is

$\vec r=\ m+\ m$

$\vec r=\ m$

In (magnitude,angle) form:

$|\vec r|=\sqrt{337.52^2+(-39.48)^2}=339.82\ m$

$\boxed{|\vec r|=339.82\ m}$

$\displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{-39.48}{337.52}=-0.1169$

$\boxed{\theta=-6.67^o}$

A woman and her dog are out for a morning run to the river, which is located 4.0 KM away. The woman runs at 2.5 M/S in a straigh

VLD [36.1K]

River shore is located at distance

$d = 4 km$

speed of the woman is given as

$v_1 = 2.5 m/s$

now the time taken by the woman to cover the distance is

$t = \frac{d}{v}$

$t = \frac{4000}{2.5} = 1600 s$

for the same time interval the dog will run to and fro with speed 4.5 m/s

so the total distance moved by the dog is given by

$d = v* t$

$d = 4.5 * 1600$

$d = 7200 m$

<em>so the total distance that dog will move is 7200 m or 7.2 km</em>
