    How to Minimize Sound Wave Interference Using a Tube with Variable Radius

    Correct, but I am failing in my attempt to model the path that the wave could take around the "bump". Would this be the arc-length of the semi-circle?

    How to Minimize Sound Wave Interference Using a Tube with Variable Radius

    Homework Statement A sound wave with 40cm wavelength enters a tube at the source end. What must be the smallest radius r such that a minimum is heard at the detector end (picture attached)? Homework Equations I am really lost in this problem, but I BELIEVE constructive/destructive wave...

    Thermal Expansion of two Metals

    Homework Statement The inner diameter of a steel ring is 2.0000 cm, and the diameter of an aluminum disk is 2.0100 cm. Both are at 430 degrees C. At what common temperature will the disk t precisely into the hole in the steel ring? alpha(Steel) = 1.3e-5 alpha(Al) = 1.9e-5 Homework...

    Determination of an unknown concentration

    Oh but that's the problem. I don't want to ask you to do the calculations, but if you do, you will find that there is no dilution that gives a ppt for one possibility and does not for the other possibilities. I tried 20 mL final volumes, with each solution starting at 10mL, then sequentially...

    Determination of an unknown concentration

    Hmm, well I'm glad I'm not missing something. The only problem with my method is that I must be able to tell the difference between a light, medium, and dark precipitate. I don't have a control other than my memory from an experiment two weeks ago.

    Determination of an unknown concentration

    Homework Statement Hello. I have a lab procedure that I am supposed to write, and since my teacher is on a two-week sick leave and the substitute does not know anything, I seriously need some assistance. Please note that for the following problem, a titration is NOT allowed. It must be...

    Solubility Product Constant Lab

    Homework Statement Hello. I recently did a lab with my chemistry class in which we mixed Potassium Iodide and Lead(II) Nitrate of different dilutions. We started off with 10mL of each solution and mixed them, giving us a final volume of 20mL. We then gradually decreased each solution's volume...

    How to Calculate Velocity of a Rocket Sled After Passing Over a Rough Patch

    Hmm what you say makes complete sense. But i still do not reach the correct answer. Using your advice, the modified solution method would be: Fnet= -6000N Fnet= 2038.7Kg(a) a= -2.94. Solving this using the Vf(squared)=Vi(squared)+2(a)(d) formula, Vf= 22.6 m/s The answer is 23.7 m/s, so I am...

    How to Calculate Velocity of a Rocket Sled After Passing Over a Rough Patch

    Homework Statement A Rocket Sled weighing 20000N is gliding at 24 m/s (North) on ice where friction is negligible. Suddenly it passes over a rough patch 22m long, which creates a friction force of 6000N (south). With what velocity does the sled leave the rough patch? Homework Equations...
