Answer:
Y = V / f where Y equals wavelength
4 Y1 = V / f1 for a closed pipe the wavelength is 1/4 the length of the pipe
2 Y2 = V / f2 for the open pipe the wavelength is 1/2 the length of the pipe
Y1 / Y2 = 2 = f2 / f1 dividing equations
f2 = 2 f1
the new fundamental frequency is 2 * 130.8 = 261.6
(The new wavelength is 1/2 the original wavelength so the frequency must double to produce the same speed.
Answer:
<em>In the observational method, the hypothesis is constructed to explain the observations. A simple one may be a generalization of the observations. A more complex hypothesis may postulate a relationship between the events, and may even be used to predict other observations.</em>
Answer:
b) Betelgeuse would be
times brighter than Sirius
c) Since Betelgeuse brightness from Earth compared to the Sun is
the statement saying that it would be like a second Sun is incorrect
Explanation:
The start brightness is related to it luminosity thought the following equation:
(1)
where
is the brightness,
is the star luminosity and
, the distance from the star to the point where the brightness is calculated (measured). Thus:
b)
and
where
is the Sun luminosity (
) but we don't need to know this value for solving the problem.
is light years.
Finding the ratio between the two brightness we get:

c) we can do the same as in b) but we need to know the distance from the Sun to the Earth, which is
. Then

Notice that since the star luminosities are given with respect to the Sun luminosity we don't need to use any value a simple states the Sun luminosity as the unit, i.e 1. From this result, it is clear that when Betelgeuse explodes it won't be like having a second Sun, it brightness will be 5 orders of magnitude smaller that our Sun brightness.
