What is the speed of sound in these conditions?arrow_forwardsolving for b. Oil explorers often set off explosives to make loud sounds, then listen for the echoes from underground oil deposits. Geologists suspect that there is oil under 520-m-deep Lake Physics. It's known that Lake Physics rests on top of solid granite. The speed of sound in water is 1480 m/s and the speed of sound in granite is 6000 m/s. a. If an explosion is created at the surface of the lake, what time after the explosion do the explorers expect to hear an echo from the bottom of the lake in seconds? t bottom = 0.703 sec. b. In addition to the expected echo from the bottom of the lake, explorers also detect a faint echo 0.960 s after exploding the dynamite at the lake surface. If it's really oil, how deep will they have to drill through the granite to reach it in meters?arrow_forward

- Two motors sitting near each other in a factory at slightly different rates. One runs at 805.0 rpm and the other at 775.0 rpm.

Two identical loudspeakers are located at points (-10,0,0) and (0,0, 10) of our coor- dinate system, where the numbers in the brac- kets correspond to the (r, y, z) coordinates of the points, expressed in meters. The loudspeakers are driven by the same oscillator with a frequ- ency of 170 Hz. The speed of sound in air can be considered 340 m/s. a) Give the coordinates of those points loca- ted on the positive r axis where the sound waves coming from the two loudspeakers interfere con- structively. b) A receiver is started to move slowly from the origin (0,0,0) along a path lying in the r-y plane so that it receives constant sound intensity throughout its slow motion. What is the shape of the path the receiver should take?arrow_forward
