This is called the Phi Phenomenon.
This is an illusion of movement created when two or more adjacent lights blink on and off in quick succession; when two adjacent stationary lights blink on and off in quick succession; we perceive a single light moving back and forth between them. It is an optical illusion of perceiving a series of still images, when viewed in rapid succession, as continuous motion.

vaieri [72.5K]

Explanation:

Given :

Initial angular velocity =w_i= 215 rev/min

Final angular velocity =w_f= 0

Number of revolutions=n =75.0 rev

Using relation

w_f^2-w_i^2=2\alpha n

0-215^2=2\times 75\alpha

-308.1666 rev/min^2=\alpha

Converting to rad/s^2

\alpha =-1.45 rad/s^2

30) When you press a piano key, a hammer strikes a very tight cable to produce a clear tone. How does the cable that produces a
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Remember: in physics and music, frequency equates to pitch, and amplitude equates to loudness. Also, remember frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength- remember this!

Thus, (B) should be the correct answer, because, think about it,  if a note is higher, than the wavelength should be shorter so the length should also be shorter, but in the case of B, if the cable is longer or thicker then the wavelength gets longer. Therefore, going from low to high, the string should be getting shorter, due to the fact that as wavelength gets shorter, frequency gets higher.

Is this a multiple choice question?
If not, well then the answer is that the volcano sort of sinks into the ground. Like it sort of subducts.
Hope this helped!!!:)
