Never. Molecules never stop moving; they only slow or speed up. They will only stop at absolute 0, which is impossible to get to,

Piano tuners tune pianos by listening to the beats between the harmonics of two different strings. When properly tuned, the note

Sophie [7]

(a) 2 Hz

The frequency of the nth-harmonic is given by

$f_n = n f_1$

where

$f_1$ is the fundamental frequency

Therefore, the frequency of the third harmonic of the A ( $f_1 = 440 Hz$ ) is

$f_3 = 3 \cdot f_1 = 3 \cdot 440 Hz =1320 Hz$

while the frequency of the second harmonic of the E ( $f_1 = 659 Hz$ ) is

$f_2 = 2 \cdot f_1 = 2 \cdot 659 Hz =1318 Hz$

So the frequency difference is

$\Delta f = 1320 Hz - 1318 Hz = 2 Hz$

(b) 2 Hz

The beat frequency between two harmonics of different frequencies f, f' is given by

$f_B = |f'-f|$

In this case, when the strings are properly tuned, we have

- Frequency of the 3rd harmonic of A-note: 1320 Hz

- Frequency of the 2nd harmonic of E-note: 1318 Hz

So, the beat frequency should be (if the strings are properly tuned)

$f_B = |1320 Hz - 1318 Hz|=2 Hz$

(c) 1324 Hz

The fundamental frequency on a string is proportional to the square root of the tension in the string:

$f_1 \propto \sqrt{T}$

this means that by tightening the string (increasing the tension), will increase the fundamental frequency also*, and therefore will increase also the frequency of the 2nd harmonic.

In this situation, the beat frequency is 4 Hz (four beats per second):

$f_B = 4 Hz$

And since the beat frequency is equal to the absolute value of the difference between the 3rd harmonic of the A-note and the 2nd harmonic of the E-note,

$f_B = |f_3-f_2|$

and $f_3 = 1320 Hz$ , we have two possible solutions for $f_2$ :

$f_2 = f_3 - f_B = 1320 Hz - 4 Hz = 1316 Hz\\f_2 = f_3 + f_B = 1320 Hz + 4 Hz = 1324 Hz$

However, we said that increasing the tension will increase also the frequency of the harmonics (*), therefore the correct frequency in this case will be

1324 Hz

Suppose a 4,000-kg elephant is hoisted 20 m above Earth’s surface. Use a calculator and follow the steps below to find the eleph

stiv31 [10]

GPE = 78,380 J
w = 39,240 N

First list what you know. You know the elephants mass and it’s height. You also know gravity on Earth. I will use g = 9.81.
m = 4,000 kg
h = 20 m
g = 9.81 m/s^2

You need to find the elephants weight. Weight = mass x gravity
w = mg
w = (4000 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)
w = 39,240 N (N = newtons)

Now, knowing the elephants weight, you can calculate its GPE.
Gravitational Potential Energy = weight x height

GPE = wh
GPE = (39,240N)(20m)
GPE = 78,380 J (J = joules)

Una manguera de agua de 1.3 cm de diametro es utilizada para llenar una cubeta de 24 Litros. Si la cubeta se llena en 48 s. A) ¿

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

We must translate this:

a 1.3 cm diameter water hose is used to fill a 24-liter bucket. If the bucket is filled in 48 s.

A) What is the speed with which the water leaves the hose?

B) if the diameter of the hose is reduced to 0.63 cm and assuming the same flow, what will be the speed of the water leaving the hose?

A) If the velocity of the water is Xcm/s

and the radius of the hose is equal to half its diameter, so it is 1.3cm/2

Then in one second we can considerate that a cylinder of:

V = pi*(1.3cm/2)^2*X cm^3 of water.

So we have that quantity in one second of flow.

where pi = 3.14

then in 48 seconds, the amount of water in the bucket is:

V = 48*pi*(1.3/2)^2*X = 24 L = 24,000 cm^3

Now we need to solve this for X.

48*3.14*(1.3/2)^2*X = 24000

63.679*x = 24000

x = 24000/63.679 = 376.89

So the velocity of the water is 376 cm per second.

B) if the diameter is 0.64cm, we have the equation:

48*3.14*(0.63/2)^2*x = 24000

14.955*X = 24000

X = 24000/14.955 = 1604.814 cm/s

When heat is converted into another form of energy, the total amount of energy is constant. Which law best illustrates this stat

deff fn [24]

The law of conservation of energy states that in a closed or isolated system, the amount of energy remains constant because energy can neither be created or destroyed. It can only be transferred from one form into another. This applies to all forms of energy.
