"what is the period of one vibration of this tone?"

1 answer:

7 0

The full question is:
On a keyboard, you strike middle C, whose frequency is 256 Hz. What is the period of one vibration of this tone?
The period of a vibration is the time it takes for the particle to make one full oscillation. Frequency is by definition number of full oscillations per unit of time.
When the frequency is expressed in Hz that unit of time is one second.
So there is the following relation between frequency and period:
$T=\frac{1}{f}$
When we plug in the numbers we get:
$T=\frac{1}{256}=0.0039$s$

calculate the average speed of an athele who runs a distance of 100m in 16 s and an additional of 400m in a 44s

Delvig [45]

Explanation:

speeds = distance/time

=100/16

=6.25m/s

second speed is;

400/44 =9.09

av. speed = total speed /n

= (6.25+9.09)/2

=7.67 m/s

Find the average energy E for (a) An n-state system, in which a given state can have energy 0,,2,...,n . (b) A harmonic oscillat

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

a♦1 E_average = n E₀ / 2 , b) E_average= infinity

Explanation:

The energy values form an arithmetic series, whose sum is

S = n (a₁ + aₙ) / 2 = n (2a₁ + (n-1) r)/ 2

Where n is the number of terms, a₁ is the first term, aₙ the last term and r is the difference between two consecutive numbers in the series

r = 2E₀ - 0 = 2E₀

Therefore the sum is

S = n (0 + n E₀) / 2

S = n² E₀ / 2

The average value is

E_average = S / n

E_average = n E₀ / 2

b) the case of harmonic oscillation

We have two possibilities.

- if we take a finite number and terms gives the same previous value

- If we take an infinite number of fears the series gives infinity and the average is also infinite

E_average= infinity

The index of refraction for a certain type of glass is 1.641 for blue light and 1.603 for red light. When a beam of white light

exis [7]

Answer:

The angle between the emergent blue and red light is $0.566^{o}$

Explanation:

We have according to Snell's law

$n_{1}sin(\theta _{i})=n_{2}sin(\theta _{r})$

Since medium from which light enter's is air thus $n_{1}=1$

Thus for blue incident light we have

$1\times sin(40.05)=1.641\times sin(\theta _{rb})\\\\\therefore \theta _{rb}=sin^{-1}(\frac{sin(40.05)}{1.64})\\\\\theta _{rb}=23.10$

Similarly using the same procedure for red light we have

$1\times sin(40.05)=1.603\times sin(\theta _{rr})\\\\\therefore \theta _{rr}=sin^{-1}(\frac{sin(40.05)}{1.603})\\\\\theta _{rr}=23.66^{o}$

Thus the absolute value of angle between the refracted blue and red light is

$|23.66-23.10|=0.566^{o}$
