Two identical loudspeakers are placed on a wall 2.00 m apart. A listener stands 3.00 m from the wall directly in front of one of the speakers. A single oscillator is driving the speakers at a frequency of 300 Hz. (a) What is the phase difference in radians between the waves from the speakers when they reach the observer? (b) What If? What is the frequency closest to 300 Hz to which the oscillator may be adjusted such that the observer hears minimal sound?
How can you determine that the speed of sound is the same for all frequencies by listening to a band orchestra?
8. A sonar device (which is 10 feet below the water surface) emits waves of frequency 50 kHz. The wavelength of the wave in water happened to be 0.052 m. Suppose that the device is fixed to the bottom of the ship. It emits a signal and the echo from the ocean bed returns 0.85 second later. What is the depth of the ocean at that point? This is assuming that the velocity of the sound in salt water is 1531 m/s. Reminder: Velocity is equal to the product of wavelength and frequency.
2. Explain why we cannot hear the sound frequency below the limit?
When two waves interfere constructively or destructively, is there any gain or loss in energy in the system of the waves? Explain.
A dolphin is able to tell in the dark that the ultrasound echoes received from two sharks come from two different objects only it the sharks are separated by 3.50 m, one being that much farther away than the other. (a) If the ultrasound has a frequency of 100 kHz, show this ability is not limited by its wavelength. (b) If this ability is due to the dolphin's ability to detect the arrival times of echoes, what is the minimum time difference the dolphin can perceive?
Suppose you have a device that extracts energy from ocean breakers in direct proportion to their intensity. If the device produces 10.0 kW of power on a day when the breakers are 1.20 m high, how much will it produce when they are 0.600 m high?
All galaxies farther away than about 50106ly exhibit a red shift in their emitted light that is proportional to distance, with those father and farther away having progressively greater red shifts. What does this imply, assuming that the only source of red shift is relative motion? (Hint: At these large distances, it is space itself that is expanding, but the effect on light is the same.)
Problem 8: Two speakers placed 0.99 m apart produce pure tones in sync with each other at a frequency of 1730 Hz. A microphone can be moved along a line parallel to the line joining the speakers and 9.8 m from it. An intensity maximum is measured a point P0 where the microphone is equidistant from the two speakers. As we move the microphone away from P0 to one side, we find intensity minima and maxima alternately. Take the speed of sound in air to be 344 m/s, and you can assume that the slits are close enough together that the equations that describe the interference pattern of light passing through two slits can be applied here. Part (a) What is the distance, in meters, between P0 and the first intensity minimum? Part (b) What is the distance, in meters, between P0 and the first intensity maximum? Part (c) What is the distance, in meters, between P0 and the second intensity minimum? Part (d) What is the distance, in meters, between P0 and the second intensity maximum? Part…
