C. It is answered by observation and evidence.

Good scientific explanations are defined, measurable and controllable. They can be answered by an experiment.

Actually says Pantazis, since their frequencies are so wildly different, brain waves don’t interfere with radio waves. Even if that was the case, brain waves are so weak, they are hardly measurable at all. For comparison, says Pantazis, “the magnetic field of the earth is just strong enough to move the needle of a compass. Signals from the brain are a billionth of that strength.”

A 44-cm-diameter water tank is filled with 35 cm of water. A 3.0-mm-diameter spigot at the very bottom of the tank is opened and

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The frequency $f$ = 521.59 Hz

The rate at which the frequency is changing = 186.9 Hz/s

Explanation:

Given that :

Diameter of the tank = 44 cm

Radius of the tank = $\frac{d}{2}$ = $\frac{44}{2}$ = 22 cm

Diameter of the spigot = 3.0 mm

Radius of the spigot = $\frac{d}{2}$ = $\frac{3.0}{2}$ = 1.5 mm

Diameter of the cylinder = 2.0 cm

Radius of the cylinder = $\frac{d}{2}$ = $\frac{2.0}{2}$ = 1.0 cm

Height of the cylinder = 40 cm = 0.40 m

The height of the water in the tank from the spigot = 35 cm = 0.35 m

Velocity at the top of the tank = 0 m/s

From the question given, we need to consider that the question talks about movement of fluid through an open-closed pipe; as such it obeys Bernoulli's Equation and the constant discharge condition.

The expression for Bernoulli's Equation is as follows:

$P_1+\frac{1}{2}pv_1^2+pgy_1=P_2+\frac{1}{2}pv^2_2+pgy_2$

$pgy_1=\frac{1}{2}pv^2_2 +pgy_2$

$v_2=\sqrt{2g(y_1-y_2)}$

where;

P₁ and P₂ = initial and final pressure.

v₁ and v₂ = initial and final fluid velocity

y₁ and y₂ = initial and final height

p = density

g = acceleration due to gravity

So, from our given parameters; let's replace

v₁ = 0 m/s ; y₁ = 0.35 m ; y₂ = 0 m ; g = 9.8 m/s²

∴ we have:

v₂ = $\sqrt{2*9.8*(0.35-0)}$

v₂ = $\sqrt {6.86}$

v₂ = 2.61916

v₂ ≅ 2.62 m/s

Similarly, using the expression of the continuity for water flowing through the spigot into the cylinder; we have:

v₂A₂ = v₃A₃

v₂r₂² = v₃r₃²

where;

v₂r₂ = velocity of the fluid and radius at the spigot

v₃r₃ = velocity of the fluid and radius at the cylinder

$v_3 = \frac{v_2r_2^2}{v_3^2}$

where;

v₂ = 2.62 m/s

r₂ = 1.5 mm

r₃ = 1.0 cm

we have;

v₃ = $(2.62 m/s)*$ $(\frac{1.5mm^2}{1.0mm^2} )$

v₃ = 0.0589 m/s

∴ velocity of the fluid in the cylinder = 0.0589 m/s

So, in an open-closed system we are dealing with; the frequency can be calculated by using the expression;

$f=\frac{v_s}{4(h-v_3t)}$

where;

$v_s$ = velocity of sound

h = height of the fluid

v₃ = velocity of the fluid in the cylinder

$f=\frac{343}{4(0.40-(0.0589)(0.4)}$

$f= \frac{343}{0.6576}$

$f$ = 521.59 Hz

∴ The frequency $f$ = 521.59 Hz

What are the rate at which the frequency is changing (Hz/s) when the cylinder has been filling for 4.0 s?

The rate at which the frequency is changing is related to the function of time (t) and as such:

$\frac{df}{dt}= \frac{d}{dt}(\frac{v_s}{4}(h-v_3t)^{-1})$

$\frac{df}{dt}= -\frac{v_s}{4}(h-v_3t)^2(-v_3)$

$\frac{df}{dt}= \frac{v_sv_3}{4(h-v_3t)^2}$

where;

$v_s$ (velocity of sound) = 343 m/s

v₃ (velocity of the fluid in the cylinder) = 0.0589 m/s

h (height of the cylinder) = 0.40 m

t (time) = 4.0 s

Substituting our values; we have ;

$\frac{df}{dt}= \frac{343*0.0589}{4(0.4-(0.0589*4.0))^2}$

= 186.873

≅ 186.9 Hz/s

∴ The rate at which the frequency is changing = 186.9 Hz/s when the cylinder has been filling for 4.0 s.

Explanation:

We have,

The initial position of an object is zero.

The starting velocity is 3 m/s and the final velocity was 10 m/s.

The object moves with constant acceleration..

The area covered under the velocity-time graph gives displacement of the object. The correct option is "the area of the rectangle plus the area of the triangle under the line".
