Because sound is a wave, it's possible to make a diffraction grating for sound from a large board of sound-absorbing material with several parallel slits cut for sound to go through. When 11 kHz sound waves pass through such a grating, listeners 8.0 m from the grating report "loud spots" 1.6 m on both sides of the center. What is the spacing between the slits? Use 340 m/s for the speed of sound.

What are igneous intrusions and extrusions

Suppose that two tanks, 1 and 2, each with a large opening at the top, contain different liquids. a small hole is made in the side of each tank at the same depth 1.57 m below the liquid surface, but the hole in tank 2 has 2.49 times the cross-sectional area of the hole in tank 1. (a) what is the ratio ρ1/ρ2 of the densities of the liquids if the mass flow rate is the same for the two holes? (b) what is the ratio rv1/rv2 of the volume flow rates from the two tanks? (c) at one instant, the liquid in tank 1 is 14.9 cm above the hole. if the tanks are to have equal volume flow rates, what height above the hole must the liquid in tank 2 be just then?
