Answer:

d=2.4\ miles

Explanation:

Given:

  • average walking speed, v_w=3\ mph
  • average biking speed, v_b=12\ mph

<u>According to given condition:</u>

t_w=t_b+\frac{36}{60}

where:

t_w= time taken to reach the building by walking

t_b= time taken to reach the building by biking

We know that,

\rm time=\frac{distance}{speed}

so,

\frac{d}{v_w} =\frac{d}{v_b} +\frac{36}{60}

\frac{d}{3}=\frac{d}{12} +\frac{3}{5}

d=2.4\ miles

Answer:

The distance from her apartment to the classroom building is 2.4 miles.

Explanation:

Given that,

Time  = 36 min

Walking average speed of her = 3 m/h

biking average speed of her = 12 m/h

If she takes n minutes to ride, then if the distance is d miles,

We need to calculate the distance

Using formula of time

t=t_{1}+t_{2}

t=\dfrac{d}{v_{1}}+\dfrac{d}{v_{2}}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{36}{60}=\dfrac{d}{3}-\dfrac{d}{12}

d=\dfrac{36\times12}{60\times3}

d=2.4\ miles

Hence, The distance from her apartment to the classroom building is 2.4 miles.

If the fundamental frequency of a musical instrument is 42Hz, what is the frequency of the second harmonic?
timurjin [86]
For the majority of instruments f = n f0 where f is the resonating frequency, n is any whole number and f0 is the fundamental. 
<span>This applies to trumpets, violins, flutes and a broad range. </span>
<span>In such a </span>case<span> the first harmonic would be at n=1 and the second harmonic would be at n=2 </span>

<span>which gives a frequency of 84 Hz</span>
