An open pipe, 0.29 m long, vibrates in the second overtone with a frequency of 1,227 Hz. In this situation, the fundamental freq

Andru [333]

Answer:

f = 409 Hz

Explanation:

We have,

Length of the open organ pipe, l = 0.29 m

Frequency of vibration of second overtone, $f_2 = 1227 Hz$

It is required to find the fundamental frequency of the pipe. For the open organ pipe, the frequency of second overtone is given by :

$f_2=\dfrac{3v}{2l}$

v is speed of sound

Let f is the fundamental frequency. It is given by :

$f=\dfrac{v}{2l}$

The relation between f and f₂ can be written as :

$f_2=3f\\\\f=\dfrac{f_2}{3}\\\\f=\dfrac{1227}{3}\\\\f=409\ Hz$

So, the fundamental frequency of the pipe is 409 Hz.

True or False. Father of a multitude" obeyed God's command to kill His son because the Ten Commandments had not yet been given.

velikii [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

The father of the Multitude was Abraham. And he did precede the 10 commandments. But the story really has nothing to do with the 10 commandments.

He obeyed God's Command because it was God who issued it. Abraham had complete faith in God's ability to make things come out right. The sacrifice of Isaac was a test of faith.

I would advise you to answer true, but whoever wrote the question employed a twisted kind of logic. The sacrifice of Isaac had nothing to do with the 10 commandments. <u><em>Thou Shalt not murde</em></u>r is not really covered by this circumstance.

So true might not be the correct answer. The question is very complex and does not lend itself to a simple True/ False answer.
