Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around various physics problems related to sound and temperature, including calculations of sound intensity, velocity of sound in different materials, thermal expansion, and conversions between temperature scales. The subject area encompasses concepts from acoustics, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics.

Discussion Character

  • Mixed

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • Participants express confusion about specific problems and seek guidance on relevant equations and concepts. Some inquire about the relationship between bulk modulus, density, and velocity, while others question how to approach thermal expansion calculations. There are requests for clarification on temperature conversions and the conditions under which certain formulas apply.

Discussion Status

Several participants have offered hints and suggested resources for understanding the problems better. There is an ongoing exploration of how to apply known formulas, but no consensus has been reached on specific solutions. The discussion reflects a mix of attempts to clarify concepts and requests for further assistance.

Contextual Notes

Some participants mention that the questions may be perceived as homework, while others assert they are study questions for a test. There is a noted emphasis on the need for participants to show their work to facilitate better assistance.

You need to show some work before we can help with obvious homework questions.
 
not homework questions...study questions for a test which i have no idea how to do...can someone help me with some equations or something? if not, DONT REPLY! thanks
 
what is the formula to solve this equation??

1. A sound wave radiates from a source to all directions, If the power of the sound is 200 watts, then the intensity of the sound wave 100m from the source is?

1. Whether it is homework or not, we have a HW/Coursework forum where these questions should be posted.

2. It is OUR POLICY that we do not simply do the work for you or give you the answer. You have to show what you know and where you got stuck. This is the ONLY and most effective way of learning, and it is something we adhere to in here.

bulk modulus

if you know bulk modulus and density how do u find the velocity?
 
The velocity of what? What are you talking about?

...ah... speed of sound, perhaps? Read this: Speed of Sound

A couple of clues then -
Intensity has units of w/m^2
The sound spreads out into a sphere, how many m^2 are there on the surface of a sphere 100m in diameter?
 
ok i have that in terms of v= sqrt of. a measure of the restoring force (B) / a measure of the inertia (p) but sqrt (0.210*10^10/100) is not giving me the answer i need ?? am i missing something?
 
  • #10
sqr. root (0.210*10^10 n/m^2/100kg/m^3) ?
 
  • #11
Why don't you post the exact problem you are trying to solve.
 
  • #12
because someone told me i could not do that and no one would help me if i did that?? will u help me?? the problem is... the bulk modulus of water is 0.210x10^10n/m^2 and the density is 100 kg/m^3. What is the velocity?

Thermal Expansion

25cm brass rod, alpha of brass 19.0 *10^-6, temp change 20-25, what is the increase in length of the brass rod? WHAT FORMULA IS THIS??

7. If the temperature changes by 36 degrees F, then what is the change in temp. in celsius

11. At what temp. are the celsius and Fahrenheit temp the same?

Presumably one knows the formula for converting °F to °C or °C to °F.

In problem 11, let TF=temperature in Fahrenheit and TC=Temperature in Celsius, and using the conversion formula, make use of TF=TC for two simultaneous linearly independent equations with two unknowns.

Hyperphysics has many of the formulas required for these problems, e.g.
http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/kinetic/kintem.html

Problem 9 seems incomplete, or 17.0 x 10-6 °C-1 is the thermal expansion coefficient.

Please do not post MULTIPLE TIMES all over PF! You are posting either identical or similar questions separately. STOP DOING THIS!

Did you read the link that Doc Al gave you in his post above? This gives the formula you need to use. Again, we're willing to help you here at PF, but you need to put some effort in. Surely reading a link that someone provides you with is not that difficult.

Ostensibly, one's physics textbook would have chapters on each of the various topics related to the problems, otherwise I am puzzled as to why one would be trying to solve such problems without familiarity with the subjects.
