A speaker is located at the coordinate (0,0) and emits a sound of fre- quency f. A second speaker is located at the coordinate (0, L), and emits the same frequency. Starting at r = 0, we walk along the r axis in the positive direction. a) In terms of the frequency f, separation L, and speed of sound c, at what spot a do the sounds destructively interfere? b) (Extra Credit) In terms of f, L, and c, how many spots on the r axis destructively interfere? Note the function [n] rounds n down to the closest integer.

1. ANALYTICAL METHOD OF ADDING VECTORS Solve the same problem as PART 1 but this time analytically. START with the values below. DO NOT USE VALUES FROM PART 1. Suppose you first walk A = 12 m in a direction 20° west of north and then B= 20 m in a direction 40° south of west. Let the +x-axis coincide with the easterly direction and the +y-axis with the northerly direction. Note: In this problem, do not round values if you need to use them for calculations in subsequent parts. Rounding errors can propagate and can make your final answer lie outside the tolerance limit of 5% set for this problem. Keep all answers to 4 significant figures.

In considering the energy supply for an automobile, the energy per unit mass of the energy source is an important parameter. The "heat of combustion" or stored energy per mass is quite similar for gasoline, ethanol, diesel fuel, cooking oil, methane, and propane. For a broader perspective, compare the energy per mass in joules per kilogram for gasoline, lead-acid batteries, hydrogen, and hay by stating the factor of increase between each one and the next. Hydrogen has "heat of combustion" 142 MJ/kg. For wood, hay, and dry vegetable matter in general, this parameter is 17 MJ/kg. A fully charged 17.0 kg lead-acid battery can deliver power 1450 W for 1.0 hr. (For comparison, the "heat of combustion" of gasoline is about 44 MJ/kg.) battery MJ/kg hay ✕ larger than battery energy/mass gasoline ✕ larger than hay energy/mass hydrogen ✕ larger than gasoline energy/mass

(3) The speed of light in vacuum, c, is 3 X 105 km/s and 1 kilometer = 1000 meters. How many Joules of energy are released if 2 kg of matter are converted into energy at 0.1% efficiency? First convert c to units of meters/second: c = 3 x 105 km/s x 1000 m/km = 3 x 108 m/s. Then express efficiency (eff) in decimal terms: eff = 0.001. In this type of problem, the mass/ energy equivalence equation is written as: E = (eff) mc2 Joules,
