Two loudspeakers are placed on a wall 2 m apart. A listener stands directly in front of one of the speakers, 81.7 m from the wall. The speakers are being driven by the same electric signal generated by a harmonic oscillator of frequency 4450 Hz. What is the phase difference ∆Φ between the two waves (generated by each speaker) when they reach the listener? The speed of the sound in air is 343 m/s. Answer in units of rad.

Answer from: levicorey846

The phase difference is       \Delta \phi = 1.9995 rad  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The distance between the  loudspeakers is d = 2m

     The distance of the listener from the wall  D = 81.7 \ m

     The frequency of the  loudspeakers is  f = 4450Hz

      The velocity of sound is v_s = 343 m/s

     

The path difference of the sound wave that is getting to the listener is mathematically represented as

        \Delta z  =\sqrt{d^2 + D^2} -D

Substituting values

        \Delta z  =\sqrt{2^2 + 81.7^2 } -81.7

       \Delta z  =0.0245m

The phase difference is mathematically represented as

           \Delta \phi =  \frac{2 \pi}{\lambda } *  \Delta z

Where \lambda is the wavelength which is mathematically represented as

          \lambda  = \frac{v_s }{f}

substituting value  

          \lambda  = \frac{343 }{4450}

        \lambda  = 0.0770 m

Substituting value into the  equation for phase difference

      \Delta \phi =  \frac{2 * 3.142 * 0.0245}{0.0770}

      \Delta \phi = 1.9995 rad

Steam is generated in a boiler of a cogeneration plant at 10 mpa and 450°c at a steady rate of 5 kg/s. in normal operation, steam expands in a turbine to a pressure of 0.5 mpa and is then routed to the process heater, where it supplies the process heat. steam leaves the process heater as a saturated liquid and is pumped to the boiler pressure. in this mode, no steam passes through a condenser, which operates at 20 kpa. (a) determine the power produced in the turbine and the rate at which process heat is supplied in this mode. (b) determine the power produced in the turbine and the rate of process heat supplied if only 60 percent of the steam is routed to the process heater and the remainder is expanded to the condenser pressure.
