describe an experiment to show how the frequency of a note emitted by a vibrating string depends on the tension of the string

1 answer:

3 0

Easy !

Take any musical instrument with strings ... a violin, a guitar, etc.

The length of the vibrating part of the strings doesn't change ...
it's the distance from the 'bridge' to the 'nut'.

Pluck any string. Then, slightly twist the tuning peg for that string,
and pluck the string again.

Twisting the peg only changed the string's tension; the length
couldn't change.

-- If you twisted the peg in the direction that made the string slightly
tighter, then your second pluck had a higher pitch than your first one.

-- If you twisted the peg in the direction that made the string slightly
looser, then your second pluck had a lower pitch than the first one.

a line passes through (8,-4) and has a slope 2/3. what is an equation in point slope form of the line? An equation of the line i

evablogger [386]

from the question

x₁ = x-coordinate = 8

y₁ = y-coordinate = - 4

m = slope of line = 2/3

slope form of the line is given as

(y - y₁ ) = m (x - x₁)

inserting the values

(y - (- 4) ) = (2/3) (x - 8)

(3) (y + 4) = (2) (x - 8)

multiplying each term inside the bracket by 3 and 2 respective on left and right side

3y + 12 = 2 x - 16

2 x - 3 y - 16 - 12 = 0

2 x - 3 y - 28 = 0

A wire is stretched right to its breaking point by a 5000 N force. A longer wire made of the same material has the same diameter

leva [86]

Answer:

Equal to 5000N

Explanation:

The stress on the material is defined by force per unit of cross-sectional area. So it depends on the force and the diameter of the wire, which is the same for both wires. The material that defines the breaking point, is also the same. Therefore, both wires have their breaking point the same at 5000N. The wire length plays no role in here.

A parallel-plate air capacitor with a capacitance of 260 pF has a charge of magnitude 0.155 Î¼C on each plate. The plates have a

butalik [34]

Answer:

The potential difference between the plates is 596.2 volts.

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitance $C=260\ pF$

Charge $q=0.155\ \mu\ C$

Separation of plates = 0.313 mm

We need to calculate the potential difference between the plates

Using formula of potential difference

$V= \dfrac{Q}{C}$

Where, Q = charge

C = capacitance

Put the value into the formula

$V=\dfrac{0.155\times10^{-6}}{260\times10^{-12}}$

$V=596.2\ volts$

Hence,The potential difference between the plates is 596.2 volts.

A block of mass 0.221 kg is placed on top of a light, vertical spring of force constant 5365 N/m and pushed downward so that the

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The maximum height above the point of release is 11.653 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block = 0.221 kg

Spring constant k = 5365 N/m

Distance x = 0.097 m

We need to calculate the height

Using stored energy in spring

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2$ ...(I)

Using gravitational potential energy

$U' =mgh$ ....(II)

Using energy of conservation

$E_{i}=E_{f}$

$U_{i}+U'_{i}=U_{f}+U'_{f}$

$\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2+0=0+mgh$

$h=\dfrac{kx^2}{2mg}$

Where, k = spring constant

m = mass of the block

x = distance

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value in the equation

$h=\dfrac{5365\times(0.097)^2}{2\times0.221\times9.8}$

$h=11.653\ m$

Hence, The maximum height above the point of release is 11.653 m.
