Compare the time it
takes the light to travel from your
teacher to your eye with the time
it takes sound to travel the same
distance.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Light takes less time than sound.

Explanation:

Let's say, the teacher and the student are at a distance "d" from each other.

The medium around them would be air.

And,

The speed of light in air is approx. 3× 10 m/s

while, the speed of sound in air is approx. 330 m/s

We have a formula that establishes the relation between speed, distance and time.

[tex] \boxed{ \mathsf{speed = \frac{distance}{time} }}[/tex]

Our hunt for time — Speed in both the scenarios is known to us whereas the distance is same.

Sound

[tex] \mathsf{330 = \frac{d}{time_{s}} }[/tex]

[tex] \underline{\mathsf{time _{s} = \frac{d}{330} }}[/tex]

Light

[tex] \mathsf{3 \times {10}^{8} = \frac{d}{time _{l} } }[/tex]

[tex] \underline{ \mathsf{ time _{l} = \frac{d}{3 \times {10}^{8}} }}[/tex]

The best way of comparison is finding their ratio.

[tex] \implies \mathsf{\frac{ time_{s}}{time_{l} } = \frac{ \frac{d}{330} }{ \frac{d}{3 \times {10}^{8} } } }[/tex]

simplifying the fraction

[tex] \implies \mathsf{\frac{ time_{s}}{time_{l} } = \frac{d \times (3 \times {10}^{8} )}{330 \times d}}[/tex]

d gets canceled and we're left with the following expression

[tex] \implies \mathsf{\frac{ time_{s}}{time_{l} } = \frac{ (3 \times10 \times {10}^{7} )}{330}}[/tex]

30, being a common factor in the numerator as well as denominator, gets canceled out. and in its place remains 1/ 11

(why?

=> 30÷330 = 1÷11)

[tex] \implies \mathsf{\frac{ time_{s}}{time_{l} } = \frac{ 1\times {10}^{7} }{11}}[/tex]

taking time to the numerator on the other side.

[tex] \implies \mathsf{time_{s} = \frac{ 1\times {10}^{7} }{11}\times time_{l}}[/tex]

Therefore, we get timeₛ is approx. 10⁶ times the timeₗ.

That's a big difference, no wonder light's way much faster than sound.

As lesser the time taken to cover a distance, faster is the wave.

Answer 2

The sound takes about 874,000 times MORE time than the light takes.

For northern hemisphere observers, which celestial object would be above the horizon for the greatest
amount of time: one that is on the celestial equator, one that is 30° above the celestial equator, one that is
70° above the celestial equator, or one that is 40" below the celestial equator? Which one would be above
the horizon the greatest amount of time for southern hemisphere observers? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

For a person at about 20° North latitude, an object 70° above the celestial equator would never set. It's arc path would touch the horizon be never sink below it. Observers north of 20° see it all night. Observers south of 20° an object 70° above the celestial equator would spend the greatest amount of time above the horizon.

For southern hemisphere observers, the object 40" below the celestial equator will spend the most time above the horizon. Nearly 12 hours per day. Did you mean 40°? 40 seconds is very close to the equator itself. However, the result is the same.

For northern hemisphere observers, the celestial object that is 70° above the celestial equator would be above the horizon for the greatest amount of time.

What is the equator?

The Equator is an imaginary line passing through the middle of a globe. It is equidistant from the North Pole and the South Pole, Its is a horizontal line residing at 0 degrees latitude.

For northern hemisphere observers, the celestial object that is 70° above the celestial equator would be above the horizon for the greatest amount of time.

The security alarm on a parked car goes off and produces a frequency of 769 Hz. The speed of sound is 343 m/s. As you drive toward this parked car, pass it, and drive away, you observe the frequency to change by 69.5 Hz. At what speed are you driving

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

ASSUMING your speed is constant

f₀ = f(v + vo)/(v + vs)

   Δf = f approach - f depart

69.5 = (769(343 + vo)/(343 + 0)) - (769(343 - vo)/(343 + 0))

69.5 = 769(2vo/343)

  vo = 15.5 m/s

The speed of car driving is 15.5 m/s as the car is parked and drive away.

What is speed?

Speed is defined as a measurement of the length of time it takes for an object to travel a certain distance. You can determine an object's speed if you know how far it moves in a given amount of time. Time does not move, hence there is no concept of a speed of time. Time refers to how we move through the temporal realm. Speed is a unit of measurement for how quickly something is moving. A change in velocity results in a change in speed.

To calculate the speed we use the formula

f₀ = f (v + vo) / (v + vs)

Δf = f approach - f depart

69.5 = (769(343 + vo) / (343 + 0)) - (769(343 - vo)/(343 + 0))

69.5 = 769(2vo/343)

vo = 15.5 m/s

Thus, the speed of car driving is 15.5 m/s as the car is parked and drive away.

If the velocity and frequency of a wave are both doubled, how does the wavelength change?

Answers

The wavelength will remain unchanged.

Explanation:

The velocity [tex]v[/tex] of a wave in terms of its wavelength [tex]\lambda[/tex] and frequency [tex]\nu[/tex] is

[tex]v = \lambda\nu[/tex] (1)

so if we double both the velocity and the frequency, the equation above becomes

[tex]2v = \lambda(2\nu)[/tex] (2)

Solving for the wavelength from Eqn(2), we get

[tex]\lambda = \dfrac{2v}{2\nu} = \dfrac{v}{\nu}[/tex]

We would have gotten the same result had we used Eqn(1) instead.

Here’s my work to your question. I used Newton’s Second Law and a kinematics equation to arrive at the answer.

At the local hockey rink, a puck with a mass of 0.12kg is given an initial speed of 5.3m/s. If the coefficient of friction between the puck and ice is 0.11, time it take the puck to come to rest is  4.51 sec.

What is speed?

The speed of an item, which is a scalar quantity in everyday usage and kinematics, is the size of the change in that object's position over time or the size of the change in that object's position per unit of time.

Given in the question at the local hockey rink, a puck with a mass of 0.12kg is given an initial speed of 5.3m/s. If the coefficient of friction between the puck and ice is 0.11,

force = ma = μmg, putting the value,

The kinematics and Newton's second law we can find the results for the questions about the braking movement of the car are;

Question 1.

     a) The stopping distance is: x = 270 m

     b) The initial velocity is: v₀ = 17.3 m / s

     c) Concepts of kinematics and Newton's second law show us the expressions to make safe trips and avoid accidents on the roads.

Question 2.

The stopping distance is: x = 4d

Given parameters

Mass of the red carriage m1 = 2,0 10³ kg Red car speed vo = 45 m / s Friction force fr = 7.5 10³ N.

To find

Question 1.

    a) Minimum braking distance.

    b) If the distance is x = 40.0 m, what speed should the vehicles have?

    c)  Conclusive importance of physics in daily life.

Question 2.

The distace to stop.

Kinematics studies the movement of bodies, looking for relationships between the position, speed and acceleration of bodies.

         v² = v₀² - a2 x

Where v and v₀ are the current and initial velocity, respectively, at acceleration and x the distance traveled.

Newton's second law states that the net force is proportional to the mass and the acceleration of the body.

          F = ma

Where F is force, m is mass and acceleration.

In the attachment we see a diagram of the forces in the system. Let's look for the acceleration of the body

        fr = m a

        a =[tex]\frac{fr}{m}[/tex]  

        a = [tex]\frac{7.5 \ 10^3}{2.0 \ 10^3 }[/tex]  

        a = 3.75 m / s²

This acceleration is in the opposite direction to the speed.

Let's find the distance needed to stop, the final speed is zero.

          0 = v₀² - 2 ax

           x = [tex]\frac{v_o^2 }{ 2a}[/tex]  

Let's calculate.

          x = [tex]\frac{45^2 }{2 3.75}[/tex]  

          x = 270 m

This is the minimum distance that the two vehicles must separate to avoid a collision.

b) We look for speed.

        v₀ = [tex]\sqrt{2ax}[/tex]  

        v₀ = [tex]\sqrt{2 \ 3.75 \ 40.0}[/tex]  

        v₀ = 17.3 m / s

c) The concepts of kinematics and Newton's second law show us the expressions to make safe trips and avoid accidents on the roads.

2) They indicate that the initial velocity is v and the distance traveled to stop is d, let's find the acceleration.

           0 = v₀² - 2ax

Let's substitute.

             a = [tex]\frac{v^2}{2d}[/tex]  

They ask the distance traveled if this car traveled from an initial speed 2v.

             0 = v² - 2 a x

             x = [tex]\frac{v^2}{2a}[/tex]  

We substitute

            x = [tex]\frac{(2v)^2 }{2} \ (\frac{2d}{v^2})[/tex]  

            x = 4 d

In conclusion, using the kinematic relations and Newton's second law we can find the results for the questions about the braking movement of the car are;

Question 1

       a) The stopping distance is: x = 270 m

       b) The initial velocity is: v₀ = 17.3 m / s

        c) concepts of kinematics and Newton's second law show us the expressions to make safe trips and avoid accidents on the roads.
