The stopping sight distance for a car traveling at 50 mph is 461 ft (including both perception-reaction distance and braking dis

tance). The perception-reaction time is 2.5 sec. If a car traveling at 60 mph is to stop in the same distance with the same deceleration, what is most nearly the required perception-reaction time

Answer:

2.08 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Speed,v=50mph=73.3ft/s

1 mile=5280 feet

1 hour=3600 s

Distance,d=461 ft

t=2.5 s

v'=60 mph=88 ft/s

We have to find the perception reaction time.

Perception reaction distance=d_p=vt=73.3\ti es 2.5=183.25 feet

d_p=d'_p

d'_p=v't

t'=\frac{183.25}{88}=2.08 s

Piano tuners tune pianos by listening to the beats between the harmonics of two different strings. When properly tuned, the note
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Frequency = 658 Hz

Explanation:

The third harmonics of A is,

f_{A}=(3)(440Hz)=1320Hz

The second harmonics of E is,

f_{E}=(2)(659Hz)=1318Hz

The difference in the two frequencies is,

delta_f = 1320 Hz - 1318 Hz = 2 Hz

The beat frequency between the third harmonic of A and the second harmonic of E is,

delta_f = 3f_{A}-2f_{E}

f_{E}=\frac{3f_{A}-delta_f}{2}

We have calculate the frequency of the E string when she hears four beats per second, then

delat_f = 4 Hz

f_{E}=\frac{3(440Hz)-4Hz}{2}

f_{E}=658Hz

Hope this helps!
