Tuning an Instrument. A musician tunes the C-string of her instrumeut to a fundamental frequency of 65.4 Hz. The vibrating porti

on of the string is 0.600 m long and has a mass of 14.4 g. (a) With what tension must the musician stretch it? (b) What percent increase in tension is needed to increase the frequency from 65.4 Hz to 73.4 Hz, corresponding to a rise in pitch from C to D?

(a) The tension the musician must stretch it is 147.82 N.

(b) The percent increase in tension is needed to increase the frequency is 26%.

<h3>Tension in the string</h3>

v = √T/μ

where;

  • v is speed of the wave
  • T is tension
  • μ is mass per unit length = 0.0144 kg / 0.6 m = 0.024 kg/m

v = Fλ

in fundamental mode, v = F(2L)

v = 2FL

v = 2 x 65.4 x 0.6 = 78.48 m/s

v = √T/μ

v² = T/μ

T = μv²

T = 0.024 x (78.48)²

T = 147.82 N

<h3>When the frequency is 73.4 Hz;</h3>

v = 2FL = 2 x 73.4 x 0.6 = 88.08 m/s

T = μv²

T = (0.02)(88.08)²

T = 186.19 N

<h3>Increase in the tension</h3>

= (186.19 - 147.82)/(147.82)

= 0.26

= 0.26 x 100%

= 26 %

Thus, the tension the musician must stretch it is 147.82 N.

The percent increase in tension is needed to increase the frequency is 26%.

A kite is 100m above the ground. if there are 200m of string out what is the angle between the string and the horizontal? (assum
jeka57 [31]

Answer :  The angle between the string and the horizontal is 30 degrees

Explanation:  Imagine this a a triangle where the length of the string (200m) is the hypotenuse and the height of the kite is the opposite side (100m) .

Let the angle between the string and the horizontal be theta.

Now  sin (Theta) = opposite side/hypotenuse

                             =  100/200 = 1/2

Therefore Theta = Sin ⁻¹ ( 1/2 )

Theta = 30 degrees

Sonja [21]
If I remember correctly (from my studies long time ago) the layers are from the outer to the center:
SiAl : Silicon-Aluminum
SiMa : Silicon-Magnesium (although should be Mg)
NiFe : Nickel-Iron

The SiMa layer should have the lightest elements (Magnesium is lighter than Aluminum)
