An air-filled pipe is found to have successive harmonics at 945 Hz , 1215 Hz , and 1485 Hz . It is unknown whether harmonics bel
ow 945 Hz and above 1485 Hz exist in the pipe. What is the length of the pipe

Answer:
L = 0.635m
Explanation:
This problem involves the concept of stationary waves in pipes. For pipes closed at one end,
The frequency f = nv/4L for n = 1,3,5....n
For pipes open at both ends
f = nv/2L for n = 1,2,3,4...n
Assuming the pipe is closed at one end and that velocity of sound is 343m/s in air. If we are right we will obtain a whole number for n.

Answer:
D) Acceleration is positive and increasing.
Explanation:
Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity per unit time; in formulas:
where is the variation of velocity and
is the variation in time.
The graph shows the velocity vs the time of a moving object. We can see that is the increment on the y-axis, while
is the increment on the x axis: therefore, the ratio
is the slope of the curve. In fact, in a velocity-time graph, the slope of the curve corresponds to the acceleration of the object.
In this particular graph, we see that the slope of the curve continues to increase: therefore, the acceleration is positive (because the slope is positive, since the velocity is increasing) and increasing (because the slope is increasing).
