Imagine you are in an open field where two loudspeakers are set up and connected to the same amplifier so that they emit sound w

aves in phase at 688 Hz\rm Hz. Take the speed of sound in air to be 344 m/s.Part BWhat is the shortest distance d d you need to walk forward to be at a point where you cannot hear the speakers? The forward direction is defined as being perpendicular to a line joining the two speakers and you start walking from the line that joins the two speakers. in meters.

Answer:

The distance we need to walk in other not to hear the speakers for a speaker separation distance of 1 m, while walking in front of one of the speaker is 1.875 meters

Explanation:

The wavelength of the wave is obtained from the formula, v = f × λ

Where;

v = The velocity of the wave = 344 m/s

f = The frequency of the wave = 688 Hz

λ = The wavelength of the wave

λ = v/f = (344 m/s)/(688 Hz) = 1/2 meters

Therefore, for one not to be able to here the speakers, there must be destructive interference and R₁ - R₂ = λ/2 = (1/2)/2 = 1/4 m

Where R₁ and R₂ are the distances from the person to the two speakers respectively

When the distance between the two speakers = 1 meter, we have

R₁ = √(x² + d²), R₂ = √((1 - x)² + d²)

R₁ - R₂ = √(x² + d²) - √((1 - x)² + d²) = 1/4

When we walk from directly in front of one of the speakers, we get;

R₁ - R₂ = √(1 + d²) - √((1 - 1)² + d²) = 1/4

√(1² + d²) - d = 1/4

√(1² + d²)  = 1/4 + d

Square both sides gives

1² + d² = 1/16 + d/2 + d²

1²  = 1/16 + d/2

d/2 = 1 - 1/16 = 15/16

d = 2 × 15/16 = 15/8

d = 15/8 = 1.875 meters.

You look at a barometer and see that the air pressure is getting much higher... How will the weather probably change? *
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The weather will clear up and get sunnier.

Explanation:As weather forecasters monitor air pressure, falling barometer measurements can signal that bad weather is on the way. In general, if a low pressure system is on its way, be prepared for warmer weather with storms and rain. If a high pressure system is coming, you can expect clear skies and cooler temperatures.

hope this helped:)

6. One minute after takeoff, a rocket carrying the space shuttle into outer space reaches a speed of 447 m/s.
Sidana [21]

Answer:

acceleration of the rocket is given as

a = 7.45 m/s^2

Explanation:

As we know that rocket starts from rest and then reach to final speed of 447 m/s after t = 1 min

so we have

v_i = 0

v_f = 447 m/s

t = 1 min = 60 s

so we have

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a = \frac{447 - 0}{60}

a = 7.45 m/s^2

An AC generator has 80 rectangular loops on its armature. Each loop is 12 cm long and 8 cm wide. The armature rotates at 1200 rp
Sauron [17]

Answer: 28.96 V

Explanation:

Given

No of loops on the armature, N = 80

Length of the loop, l = 12 cm = 0.12 m

Width of the loop, b = 8 cm = 0.08 m

Speed of the armature, 1200 rpm

Magnetic field of the loop, B = 0.30 T

To solve this, we use the formula

V(max) = NBAω

Where,

A = area of loop

A = l*b = 0.12 * 0.08

A = 0.0096 m²

ω = 1200 rpm = 1200 * 2π/60 rad/s

ω = (1200 * 2 * 3.142) / 60

ω = 7540.8 / 60

ω = 125.68 rad/s

Substituting the values into the formula

V(max) = NBAω

V(max) = 80 * 0.30 * 0.0096 * 125.68

V(max) = 80 * 0.362

V(max) = 28.96 V

Therefore, the maximum output voltage of the generator would be 28.96 V

Which of the following would decrease the magnetic field around a wire?
shusha [124]
The correct answer is
<span>A. decreasing the current

In fact, the magnetic field produced by a current carrying wire is given by
</span>B(r) =  \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}
<span>where
</span>\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability
<span>I is the current in the wire
r is the distance from the wire at which the field is calculated

We see from the formula that the intensity of the field, B, is directly proportional to the current I, so if the current decreases, the magnetic field strength B decreases as well.</span>
