Help with the following question
A soundwave of 400 Hz has a wavelength of 2.5 meters. Two speakers sit in a line and emit identical amplitude soundwaves of this frequency. What separation distance could you put between the speakers so that a listener, sitting next to the second speaker would not hear the sound? 2.5 m 10 m 11.25 m none of the above answers are applicable
View Policies Current Attempt in Progress Deep ultrasonic heating is used to promote healing of torn tendons. It is produced by applying ultrasonic sound over the affect of the body. The sound transducer (generator) is circular with a radius of 1.96 cm, and it produces a sound intensity of 4.03 x 10° W/m?. How much time is required for the transducer to emit 4470 J of sound energy? Number Units eTextbook and Media Attempts: 0 of 5 used Submit. Save for Later

At Colorado State University we are familiar with trains and their horns. You stand a safe distance next to the track and a train, which is 20 m away, travels towards you. You detect the train's horn at an intensity level of 120 dB and a frequency of 462 Hz. Multiple Choice Questions 7) You know that the train air horn is actually emitting sound at 440 Hz. How fast is the train moving towards you? a) 8 m/s b) 10 m/s c) 12 m/s d) 14 m/s e) 16 m/s f) 18 m/s 8) What distance would you need to be from the train for the sound intensity level to be 80 dB? a) 10 m b) 30 m Short Answer Question c) 100 m d) 700 m e) 1,300 m f) 2,000 m A locomotive (150,000 kg) has initial speed given by your answer to Question 7. It collides with a tanker car (50,000 kg) that is initially at rest; the two couple and move off together in a completely inelastic collision. .
