The speed of the sound in the xenon is 178 m/s. And the right option is b 178 m/s

<h3 /><h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed can be defined as the ratio of the total distance traveled by a body to the total time taken.

To calculate the speed of the sound in the xenon, we use the formula below.

Formula:

  • v = λf............. Equation 1

Where:

  • v = Speed of the sound in xenon
  • f = Frequency
  • λ = Wavelength.

From the question,

Given:

  • f = 440 Hz
  • λ = 40.4 cm = 0.404 m

Substitute the values above into equation 1

  • v = 440(0.404)
  • v = 177.76 m/s.
  • v ≈ 178 m/s

Hence, The speed of the sound in the xenon is 178 m/s. And the right option is b 178 m/s

Answer:

3200 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of Sound through Argon is 319.

The speed of sound in any chemical element in the fluid phase has one temperature-dependent value. In the solid phase, different types of sound wave may be propagated, each with its own speed: among these types of wave are longitudinal (as in fluids), transversal, and (along a surface or plate) extensional.

If argon could exist as solid, then 3200 m/s is the best speed.

Light of wavelength 500 nm is incident perpendicularly from air on a film 10-4cm thick and of refractive index 1.375. Part of th
Marysya12 [62]

Answer

given,

wavelength (λ)= 500 n m

thickness of film= 10⁻⁴ cm

refractive index = μ = 1.375

distance traveled is double which is equal to 2 x 10⁻⁴ cm

a) Number of wave

     N = \dfrac{d}{\mu\lambda}

     N = \dfrac{2 \times 10^{-6}}{1.375\times 500 \times 10^{-9}}

           N = 2.91

           N = 3

b) phase difference is equal to

Reflection from the first surface has a 180° (½λ) phase change.

There is no phase change for the 2nd surface reflection and there is no phase difference for the 2nd wave having traveled an exact whole number of waves.

net phase difference = 180^0\times \dfrac{3}{2}

                                   = 270°
