9. Calculate the distance (in km) that Charlie runs if he maintains the average

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Correct Question:

Calculate the distance (in km) charlie runs if he maintains an average speed of 8 km/hr for 1 hour

Answer:

The total distance covered by Charlie is 8 km in 1 hour.

Explanation:

The average velocity as given in the question is,

v = 8 km/hr

Total time taken,

$$t=1 hour$

As we know the formula to evaluate the total distance d when the average velocity and time is given;

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

$d=v \times t$

$d=8 \times 1$

$d=8 k m$

Hence, the total distance covered by Charlie in 1 hour will be 8 km.

A 27.0-m steel wire and a 48.0-m copper wire are attached end to end and stretched to a tension of 145 N. Both wires have a radi

algol13

Answer:

The time taken by the wave to travel along the combination of two wires is 458 ms.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of steel wire= 27.0 m

Length of copper wire = 48.0 m

Tension = 145 N

Radius of both wires = 0.450 mm

Density of steel wire $\rho_{s}= 7.86\times10^{3}\ kg/m^{3}$

Density of copper wire $\rho_{c}=8.92\times10^{3}\ kg/m^3$

We need to calculate the linear density of steel wire

Using formula of linear density

$\mu_{s}=\rho_{s}A$

$\mu_{s}=\rho_{s}\times\pi r^2$

Put the value into the formula

$\mu_{s}=7.86\times10^{3}\times\pi\times(0.450\times10^{-3})^2$

$\mu_{s}=5.00\times10^{-3}\ kg/m$

We need to calculate the linear density of copper wire

Using formula of linear density

$\mu_{c}=\rho_{s}A$

$\mu_{c}=\rho_{s}\times\pi r^2$

Put the value into the formula

$\mu_{c}=8.92\times10^{3}\times\pi\times(0.450\times10^{-3})^2$

$\mu_{c}=5.67\times10^{-3}\ kg/m$

We need to calculate the velocity of the wave along the steel wire

Using formula of velocity

$v_{s}=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_{s}}}$

$v_{s}=\sqrt{\dfrac{145}{5.00\times10^{-3}}}$

$v_{s}=170.3\ m/s$

We need to calculate the velocity of the wave along the steel wire

Using formula of velocity

$v_{c}=\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_{c}}}$

$v_{c}=\sqrt{\dfrac{145}{5.67\times10^{-3}}}$

$v_{c}=159.9\ m/s$

We need to calculate the time taken by the wave to travel along the combination of two wires

$t=t_{s}+t_{c}$

$t=\dfrac{l_{s}}{v_{s}}+\dfrac{l_{c}}{v_{c}}$

Put the value into the formula

$t=\dfrac{27.0}{170.3}+\dfrac{48.0}{159.9}$

$t=0.458\ sec$

$t=458\ ms$

Hence, The time taken by the wave to travel along the combination of two wires is 458 ms.

Describe the sequence of mechanical energy events that lets you hear the

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Starting from the beginning.

There is a radio signal that is received by the radio.

The radio interprets the signal and produces a current in response to it.

That current goes to a membrane that oscillates producing sound, the oscillation of the membrane is the first mechanical energy event here.

These oscillations can travel in material mediums, for example, the air. Then there is a production of waves (soundwaves) that travel in the air (second event).

Those waves now hit the wall that separates you and your neighbor, as the wall is made of a material, the soundwaves can travel through it, but they will be dispersed (a part of the waves rebounds on the wall, and another part is dissipated as the wave travels through the wall), there is also a transmitted part of the wave, that is now in your house. (this change of medium will be the third event). Now only the lower frequencies survive, this is why the sound is "muffled".

Those remaining frequencies now travel in your house, and when they reach your ear, your ear sends a signal to your brain and your brain interprets them as sound. The wave interacting with your ear will be the fourth and last mechanical energy event.

When you hear an ambulance siren, it alternates between high and low tones, depending on the frequency of sound waves. this is c

dangina [55]

Frequency of a sound wave is called the pitch. Higher frequencies have a higher pitch and lower frequencies have the opposite. When an ambulance travels by a listener, the frequencies are oscillating rapidly and causing the shrill, loud sounds that emanate from the sirens.

Let's say you have two tuning forks which are supposed to produce the same frequency, 512 Hz. One is of good quality, but the ot

solong [7]

Answer:

= 2 beats per seconds

Explanation:

From |f -f'| = modulus of the difference between the frequency given.

f = 510Hz and f' = 512Hz

Difference between the frequency will give us the number of beat per seconds.

i.e 2 beats per seconds

These also shows how to get the period of the tuning forks.
