The distance between a loudspeaker and the left ear of a listener is 2.70 m. (a) Calculate the time required for sound to travel this distance if the air temperature is 20 oc. (b) Assuming that the sound frequency is 523 Hz, how many wavelengths of sound are contained in this distance

Explanation:

Distance covered by sound = 2.7 m

speed of sound at 20⁰C = 343 m /s

time take by sound to cover the distance = distance / speed

= 2.7 / 343

= 7.87 ms . ( millisecond )

b )

Wavelength of sound = speed / frequency

= 343 / 523 m

= .6558 m

= 65.58 cm

Distance = 2.70 m = 270 cm

No of wavelengths contained in the distance

= 270 / 65.58

= 4.11 or 4 wavelengths ( by rounding off to digit )

increasing transnational kinetic energy. because the transnational kinetic energy formula consists of only two variables, mass and velocity, increasing one of those properties is the only way to increase an object's transnational kinetic energy. increases to mass and velocity, however, do not have the same impact.
