the musical instrument such as a piano may be tuned by using the phenomenon of beats.

The phenomena of beat frequency is often used to tune musical instruments like piano. A tuning fork is tapped ad a string of paino is plucked simultaneously. If the two sound sources produce beats whose frequencies are different, their frequencies won't be identical, and they are will out of tune and noise. Hence the above process is repeated until the frequencies are identical and resonant and the frequencies are not distinguished. Thus making the instrument in tune

This method will work more efficiently for an instrument that is entirely out of tune because it will be easier to distinguish the beats of the instruments and the tuning fork.

Hence the musical instrument such as a piano may be tuned by using the phenomenon of beats.

6.6 kg block initially at rest is pulled to theright along a horizontal, frictionless surfaceby a constant, horizontal force of

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

v = 3.04 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of the block, M = 6.6 Kg

horizontal force, F = 12.2 N

distance, L = 2.5 m

initial speed = 0 m/s

speed of the block,v = ?

we now

Work done is equal to change in Kinetic energy.

Work done = Force x displacement

W = Δ K E

Δ K E = Force x displacement

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}mu^2= F .s$

$\dfrac{1}{2}\times 6.6 \times v^2 - 0= 12.2\times 2.5$

3.3 v² = 30.5

v² = 9.242

v = 3.04 m/s

speed of the block is equal to 3.04 m/s

A 1,000 kg car is travelling at 6.5 m/s to the North. A 3,500 kg truck is travelling South at the same velocity. What is the tot

Molodets [167]

Answer:

16250 kgm/s due south

Explanation:

Applying,

M = mv................. Equation 1

Where M = momentum, m = mass, v = velocity.

From the car,

Given: m = 1000 kg, v = 6.5 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

M = 1000(6.5)

M = 6500 kgm/s

For the truck,

Given: m = 3500 kg, v = 6.5 m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

M' = 3500(6.5)

M' = 22750 kgm/s.

Assuming South to be negative direction,

From the question,

Total momentum of the two vehicles = (6500-22750)

Total momentum of the two vehicles = -16250 kgm/s

Hence the total momentum of the two vehicles is 16250 kgm/s due south

Pavel [41]

Answer: A.The ocean is colder than the land

Explanation:

Based on the information provided in the question, we are informed that Agustin visits Panama City, Florida, during the month of May and that he feels a shore breeze blowing from the ocean onto the beach.

The reason for the shore breeze is simply due to the fact that the ocean is colder than the land. Since the ocean is colder, anyone who goes to the beach will feel the breeze.

Why is Carbon Tetrahydride a covalent bond? plzzz helpppp!!!!!!

arlik [135]

Answer:

carbon has four unpaired electrons in its valence shell . hydrogen having one unpaired electron in its valence shell comes to bond with carbon by sharing a pair of electrons .since carbon needs 4 electrons to be stable, 4 hydrogen atoms take part in the bond . It's a covalent bond because the difference between the electronegativity of carbon and hydrogen is quite small .
