What is the fundamental frequency (in Hz) of a 0.632 m long tube, open at both ends, on a day when the speed of sound is 344 m/s

Greeley [361]

Answer:

$f=272.15Hz$

Explanation:

Given data

Length of tube L=0.632 m

Speed of sound v=344 m/s

To find

Fundamental frequency f

Solution

The fundamental frequency of the tube can be given as:

$f=\frac{v}{2L}\\ f=\frac{344m/s}{2(0.632m)}\\ f=272.15Hz$

What is the difference between a graph of linear motion and a graph of harmonic motion?

fredd [130]

Hope this helps :)

When describing linear motion, you need only one graph representing each of the three terms, while projectile motion requires a graph of the x and y axes. Graphs of simple harmonic motion are sine curves. Circular motion is different from other forms of motion because the speed of the object is constant.

A 5.92 g object moving to the right at 17.1 cm/s makes an elastic head-on collision with an 11.84 g object that is initially at

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

v₁f = -5.7 cm/s

Explanation:

Assuming no external forces acting during the collision, total momentum must be conserved, as follows:

$m_{1} * v_{10} = m_{1} *v_{1f} + m_{2} * v_{2f} (1)$

Rearranging terms, we have:

$m_{1} * (v_{10} - *v_{1f} ) = m_{2} * v_{2f} (2)$

We also know that the collision is elastic, so total kinetic energy must be conserved , as follows:

$\Delta K = 0 \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} * m_{1} *v_{10} ^{2} = \frac{1}{2}* m_{1} *v_{1f} ^{2} + \frac{1}{2}* m_{2} *v_{2f} ^{2} (3)$

Rearranging , and simplifying common terms, we have:

$m_{1}* (v_{10} ^{2} -v_{1f} ^{2} ) = m_{2} *v_{2f} ^{2} (4)$

Replacing by the givens, doing some algebra and dividing (4) by (2), we find the following relationship:

$v_{10} + v_{1f} = v_{2f}$

Replacing the expression above in (1), as m₂ = 2*m₁, we can find the value of v₁f, as follows:

$m_{1} * v_{10} = m_{1} * v_{1f} +2*m_{1} * (v_{10} + v_{1f})\\ \\ -(m_{1} * v_{10}) = 3* m_{1} *v_{1f} \\ \\ v_{1f} = - \frac{v_{10} }{3} = \frac{-17.1cm/s}{3} = -5.7 cm/s$

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

100 km/h

Explanation:

96km•2.5=240km

240÷3/5=240•5/3=400km

400-240=160km

4.1-2.5=1.6h

160÷1.6=100km/h

A 0.3 g mosquito is flying toward a girl with a speed of 4.5 mph. Just before landing on the girl, the fly is swatted straight b

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

1.1x10^-2N

Explanation:

We have the change in momentum as

P = 0.3(4.5+12)g.mph

= 0.3x0.447x(4.5+12)x10^-3

Then the force that is exerted will be

F = p/∆t

∆t = 0.2

= 0.3x0.447x(4.5+12)x10^-3/0.2

= 0.1341x16.5x10^-3/0.2

= 1.1x10^-2

Therefore the force that was exerted is equal to 1.1x10^-2
