To what tension must you adjust the string so that, when vibrating in its second overtone, it produces sound of wavelength 0.767

m ? (Assume that the breaking stress of the wire is very large and isn’t exceeded.)

Answer:

Tension, T = 547.58 N

Explanation:

It can be assumed that,

Mass of the string, m = 8.75 g

Length of the string, l = 70 cm = 0.7 m

Wavelength of produced sound, \lambda=0.767\ m

Speed of sound, v = 344 m/s

We know that second overtone is the third harmonic. The frequency in second overtone is given by :

f=\dfrac{v}{3\lambda}

f=\dfrac{344}{3\times 0.767}

f = 149.5 Hz

The frequency in terms of length is given by :

f=\dfrac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m/l}}

T=4f^2l^2\dfrac{m}{l}

T=4f^2lm

T=4\times (149.5)^2\times 0.7\times 8.75\times 10^{-3}

T = 547.58 N

So, the tension in the string is 547.58 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

You drop a stone down off a bridge. You are able to count to 4.0 seconds when it finally hits the water. How high is the bridge?
mart [117]

Answer:

The height of the bridge is 78.4 m.

Explanation:

Given;

time of the stone motion off the bridge, t = 4.0 s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The height of the bridge is given by;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

where;

u is the initial velocity of the stone, u = 0

h = ¹/₂gt²

h = ¹/₂(9.8)(4)²

h = 78.4 m

Therefore, the height of the bridge is 78.4 m.

How does an airbag help protect a passenger in a car accident?
Novosadov [1.4K]
Good question. It like a fail safe,if you hit a car tail gate going slightly fast it come out to protect you from hitting your on the the wheel or the mirror. See if you don't have a seat belt or it just don't fully stop you the airbag might help.Like concussions.  I Hope This Help you :)

In a science fiction story, a microscopic black hole is given an enormous positive charge by firing an un-neutralized ion drive
Olegator [25]

Answer: distance d = 4.73e10m

Explanation: Suppose the charge on the black hole is 5740 C which is a positive charge.

Using electric potential V formula:

V = kq / d

Where K = 9.05×10^9Nm^2/C

And e = 1.6×10^-19C

But you don't need to substitute it.

1090 V = 8.99e9N·m²/C² * 5740C /d

Make d the subject of formula

d = 4.73e10 m

PolarNik [594]
D is the best answer. In many physics problems we treat an extended object as if it were a point with the same mass located at the center of mass.
