Which instrument produces the sound of a single frequency?
notka56 [123]
NO musical instrument produces a 'pure' tone with only a
single frequency in it.

EVERY instrument produces more or less harmonics (multiples)
in addition to the basic frequency it's playing.

The percussion instruments (drums etc) are the richest producers
of bunches of different frequencies.

Fuzzy electric guitars are next richest.

The strings and brass instruments are moderate producers of
harmonics ... I can't remember which is greater than the other.

Then come the woodwinds ... clarinet, oboe, etc.

The closest to 'pure' tones of single frequency are the sounds
made by the flute and piccolo, but even these are far from 'pure'.

The only way to get a true single-frequency sound is from an
electronic 'sine wave' generator.

The pulley system has a mechanical advantage of 5. Determine how much input force is required to achieve 1000 N of lifting force
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Input force of pulley system = 200 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mechanical advantage of pulley system = 5

Output force from pulley system = 1,000 N

Find;

Input force of pulley system

Computation:

Mechanical advantage = Output force / Input force

Mechanical advantage of pulley system = Output force from pulley system / Input force of pulley system

5 = 1,000 / Input force of pulley system

Input force of pulley system = 1,000 / 5

Input force of pulley system = 200 N

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

82.4 cm

Explanation:

The object and screen are kept fixed ie the distance between them is fixed and by displacing lens between them images are formed on the screen . In the first case let u be the object distance and v be the image distance

then ,

u + v = 184 cm

In the second case of image formation , v becomes u and u becomes v only then image formation in the second case is possible.

The difference between two object distance ie(  v - u ) is the distance by which lens is moved so

v - u = 82.4 cm
