When a person plucks a guitar string, the number of half wavelengths that fit into the length of the string determines the _____

__ of the sound produced.
Physics
1 answer:
Vedmedyk [2.9K]3 years ago

Answer:

Frequency

Explanation:

Each half wavelength has a point of largest amplitude (aka a node). Depending on the wavelength each node oscillates at a certain rate of swings per unit of time. The latter is referred to as frequency and measure in Hertz [Hz].

HELP PLEASE!! GIVING BRAINLIEST!! If you answer this correctly ill answer some of your questions you have posted! (20pts)
anyanavicka [17]

Explanation:

potential energy =360800J

mass(m)=?

height (h)=25m

g=9.8m/s²

we have

potential energy =360800J

mgh=360800J

m×9.8×25=360800

m=360800/(9.8×25)=1472.653061kg

how much gravitational potential energy do you give a 70 kg person when you lift him up 3 m in the air?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Given gravitational potential energy when he's lifted is 2058 J.

Kinetic energy is transferred to the person.

Amount of kinetic energy the person has is -2058 J

velocity of person = 7.67 m/s².

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Given:

Weight of person = 70 kg

Lifted height = 3 m

1. Gravitational potential energy of a lifted person is equal to the work done.

PE_g=W=m\times g\times h\\Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 \ m/s^2 \\PE_g= m = m\times g\times h= 70\times 9.8 \times 3 = 2058\ kg.m/s^2 = 2058\ J

Gravitational potential energy is equal to 2058 Joules.

2. The Gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is being transferred to the person.

3. Kinetic energy gained = Potential energy lost = -PE_g = -2058\ kg.m/s^2

Kinetic energy gained by the person = (-2058 kg.m/s²)

4. Velocity = ?

Kinetic energy magnitude= \frac{1}{2} m\times v^2 = m\times g \times h

Solving for v, we get

v=\sqrt{2gh} =\sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 3} = \sqrt{58.8} = 7.67 m/s^2

The person will be going at a speed of 7.67 m/s².

Which of the following represents a fully plastic collision? 1. Two billiard balls hit each other then move in opposite directio
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Option (4)

Explanation:

There are two types of collision.

Perfectly elastic collision: the collision in which the momentum and kinetic energy is conserved. There is no loss of energy in other forms of energy.

Perfectly plastic collision: The collision in which the momentum is conserved and kinetic energy is not conserved. The two bodies stick after the collision.

Here, the bullet hits the block and then embedded in the block, it is the example of plastic collision.

A real power supply can be modeled as an ideal EMF of 60 Volts in series with an internal resistance. The voltage across the ter
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

5 ohms

Explanation:

Given:

EMF of the ideal battery (E) = 60 V

Voltage across the terminals of the battery (V) = 40 V

Current across the terminals (I) = 4 A

Let the internal resistance be 'r'.

Now, we know that, the voltage drop in the battery is given as:

V_d=Ir

Therefore, the voltage across the terminals of the battery is given as:

V= E-V_d\\\\V=E-Ir

Now, rewriting in terms of 'r', we get:

Ir=E-V\\\\r=\frac{E-V}{I}

Plug in the given values and solve for 'r'. This gives,

r=\frac{60-40}{4}\\\\r=\frac{20}{4}\\\\r=5\ ohms

Therefore, the internal resistance of the battery is 5 ohms.

1500 kg Peugeot car is traveling at 16.67 m s ⁻¹ and accelerates to 30.56 m s ⁻¹ for 2 minutes. Calculate the impulse of the car
Elis [28]

Answer:

2084 kg*m/s

Explanation:

Impulse is change in momentum

Mathematically;

Impulse, J= F*t=mΔv   where

F= ma = 1500 * { 30.56 - 16.67}/2*60

F= 1500 *0.11575

F=  174 N

J=F*t

J= 174*120*0.1

J= 2084 kg*m/s
