Two piano strings are supposed to be vibrating at 220 Hz, but a piano tuner hears three beats every 2.5 s when they are played t

ogether.
(a) If one is vibrating at 220.0 Hz, what must be the frequency of the other (is there only one answer)?
(b) By how much (in percent) must the tension be increased or decreased to bring them in tune?

Answer:

a) 218.8 Hz or 221.2 Hz

b) Increased by 1.087% or decreased by 0.11%

Explanation:

Number of beats = 3

Time = 2.5 s

Frequency of beat = F_1=\frac{3}{2.5}=1.2\ Hz

a) If one string is vibrating at 220 Hz, then

F_1-F_2=220-1.2=218.8 Hz

                                        or

F_1+F_2=220+1.2=221.2 Hz

So, the other string is vibrating at 218.8 Hz or221.2 Hz

b) If frequency is 218.8 Hz

\frac{F_2}{F_1}=\sqrt{\frac{T_1}{T_2}}\\\Rightarrow \frac{F_2^2}{F_1^2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{218.8^2}{220^2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{T_1}{T_2}=0.9891

T, tension must be increased by = 1-0.9891 = 0.0108 = 1.087 %

T, tension must be increased by 1.087%

If frequency is 221.2 Hz

\frac{221.2^2}{220^2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow \frac{T_1}{T_2}=1.011

T, tension must be increased by = 1-1.011 = -0.011 = -0.11 %

T, tension must be decreased by 0.11%

An opera singer who is a baritone, lowers his pitch and raises his voice for a song. Which best describes how the resulting soun
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer: 3.

Explanation:

The correct answer is a higher amplitude and lower frequency. Since an opera singer is lowering his pitch it means that he is creating higher amplitude and because he is raising his voice for a song with that higher amplitude he is creating lower frequency.
