Why can we hear sound around a corner but not see light

Physics
1 answer:
Viktor [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Sound waves that we can hear have much longer wavelengths than do light waves. As a result, the diffraction of sound waves around a corner is noticeable and we can hear the sound in the “shadow region,” but the diffraction of light waves around a corner is not noticeable.

i hope that helps :)...<3

0. 85 kg of lead, specific heat 128 J/kgC, is heated from 50 C to 95 C. How much heat energy did the sample absorb?
Zanzabum
4896

0.85 x 45 x 128 = 4896

Change in energy = specific heat capacity x mass x change in temperature

Consider the interference pattern produced by two parallel slits of width a and separation d, in which d = 3a. The slits are ill
laila [671]

Answer:

a)   m =1  θ = sin⁻¹  λ  / d,  m = 2        θ = sin⁻¹ ( λ  / 2d) ,   c)     m = 3

Explanation:

a) In the interference phenomenon the maxima are given by the expression

         d sin θ = m λ

the maximum for m = 1 is at the angle

          θ = sin⁻¹  λ  / d

the second maximum m = 2

          θ = sin⁻¹ ( λ  / 2d)

the third maximum m = 3

        θ = sin⁻¹ ( λ  / 3d)

the fourth maximum m = 4

       θ = sin⁻¹ ( λ  / 4d)

b) If we take into account the effect of diffraction, the intensity of the maximums is modulated by the envelope of the diffraction of each slit.

       I = I₀ cos² (Ф) (sin x / x)²

       Ф = π d sin θ /λ

       x = pi a sin θ /λ

where a is the width of the slits

with the values ​​of part a are introduced in the expression and we can calculate intensity of each maximum

c) The interference phenomenon gives us maximums of equal intensity and is modulated by the diffraction phenomenon that presents a minimum, when the interference reaches this minimum and is no longer present

maximum interference       d sin θ = m λ

first diffraction minimum    a sin θ = λ

we divide the two expressions

                       d / a = m

In our case

                   3a / a = m

                    m = 3

order three is no longer visible
