You hear a seal produce an alarm call on the beach. Some of this alarm sound will also penetrate into the water to alert seals swimming underwater. Based upon your measurements of acoustic impedance, you calculate that the Reflection Coefficient R=0.5. Please answer both parts of this question and show your work. 1. How much of the sound energy will reflect back from the water into the air? Give either the proportion or the percentage. If you give the percentage, you must include the percentage sign (%) 2. How much of the sound energy will penetrate into the water? Give either the proportion or the percentage. If you give the percentage, you must include the percentage sign (%)
1. A) The String has a frequency 120 Hz. The length of the string from the vibrator to the point where the string touches the top of the pulley is 1.2 meters. What is the wavelength of the standing wave corresponding to the third resonant mode of the system? Show your work. B)What is the velocity of the wave for the same system described in Part A, but for the case of the fifth resonant mode? Show your work. C) Suppose that the system described in Part A has string with mass density equal to ?=2.95×10−14???μ=2.95×10−14kgm. What is the tension T in the string for the second resonant mode? Show your work.
Solve the following problems. Show your solution. 1. Echoes return in 2.5 s to a person standing in front of a cliff. How far away is the cliff of the peed of the sound in air at sea level is 343 m/s when the temperature is 20 o C 2. The airplane takes off at 9:00 AM and flies in a straight path at 300 km/hr until1:00 PM, its speed is increased to 400 km/hr and it maintain this speed in the same direction until it lands at 3:00 PM. What is the average speed of the airplane fir the entire flight? 3. An object that is undergoing uniform acceleration from rest moves 7.4 m in 2.5 s. what is the acceleration of the object?
