How are vibrations different between bigger sizes rubber bands and smaller sized rubber bands?

Assuming the kind of vibration you are talking about is the kind where you stretch the rubber band between two points and then "twang" it, then the answer is fairly complex. What happens when you cause the vibrations to start is you make something called a "standing wave". In a standing wave, each particle in the rubber band has a certain amount of energy which causes it to move backwards and forwards, the particles with more energy have a larger "amplitude" (how much they move), and of course the particles with less energy have a smaller amplitude. Now a standing wave has two main components: The amplitude, and the frequency. The amplitude of the whole wave refers to the largest amplitude any particles has. The frequency refers to how often it takes for one of the particles to move between the two furthest away points it can be.
To compare rubber bands, you must remember to keep certain things constant. If you're looking at their vibrations, the amount of energy you use to "twang" the rubber band should be the same each time you twang it (which is the same as applying the same force each time you twang it).

A larger rubber band has more area over which to spread the energy, as well as it has more mass for the energy to move, so the vibrations will have smaller amplitudes, and smaller frequencies, overall vibrating less and with smaller vibrations.

zhenek [66]

Answer:

Molarity of acid soln = 0.176M

Explanation:

Molarity of NaOH soln  x  Volume of NaOH soln = Molarity of acid soln  x  Volume of acid soln

=> 26.23ml  x  1.008M  =  150.2ml  x  Molarity of acid solution

=> Molarity of acid soln = (26.23ml)(1.008M)/(150.2ml) = 0.176M

blagie [28]

Answer:

In a science lab, a teacher instructed students to attach a piece of very fine steel wool to a clamp stand inside a fume hood. The students then lit a burner placed under the steel wool. The metal strands began to glow bright red and flames filled the steel wool. After the burner was turned off, the metal continued to burn, leaving behind reddish-brown strands that collapsed into a powder when it was touched after cooling.

Based on these observations, did the steel wool undergo a chemical change or a physical change? Explain your answer.

Need to balance these equations
Brrunno [24]

The balanced chemical reaction of potassium chloride involves 2 moles of potassium to react with 1 mole of chlorine and other are explained below.

<h3>What is balanced equation?</h3>

Balanced chemical equations are those equations in which all entities are present in same amount on reactant as well as on the product side of the reaction.

Given chemical reactions are:

  • First equation is a balanced equation in which nitrogen reacts with hydrogen to form ammonia because all are present in same quantity on both sides.
  • Second equation is not a balances equation as number of chlorine atoms are not present in same quantity, so balanced equation is:

        2K + Cl₂ → 2KCl

  • Balanced equation for the third reaction is:

        CF₄ + 2Br₂ → CBr₄ + 2F₂

  • Balanced equation for the fourth reaction is:

        GaF₃ + 3Cs → 3CsF + Ga

  • Fifth reaction between barium sulfide and platinum di fluoride is balanced as all atoms are present in same amount on both sides.
  • Balanced equation for the last reaction is:

        MgF₂ + Li₂CO₃ → MgCO₃ + 2LiF

Hence in the formation of potassium chloride balanced equation involves 2 moles of potassium to react with 1 mole of chlorine.
