If they have the same momentum, then

m₁ v₁ = m₂ v₂

If m₁ > m₂, then we must have v₁ < v₂ to preserve the equality.

The object with the larger speed - the second object - thus has more kinetic energy.

The sound from a single source can reach point O by two different paths. One path is 20.0 m long and the second path is 21.0 m l

Answer:

minimum frequency = 170 Hz

Explanation:

given data

One path long = 20 m

second path long = 21 m

speed of sound = 340 m/s

solution

we get here destructive phase that is path difference of minimum $\frac{\lambda}{2}$

here λ is the wavelength of the wave

so path difference will be

21 - 20 = $\frac{\lambda}{2}$

λ = 2 m

and

velocity that is express as

velocity = frequency × wavelength .............1

frequency = $\frac{340}{2}$

minimum frequency = 170 Hz
