A tube is open only at one end. A certain harmonic produced by the tube has a frequency of 571 Hz. The next higher harmonic has

a frequency of 799 Hz. The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s. (a) What is the integer n that describes the harmonic whose frequency is 571 Hz? (b) What is the length of the tube?
B. A person hums into the top of a well (tube open at only one end) and finds that standing waves are established at frequencies of 36.1, 60.2, and 84.2 Hz. The frequency of 36.1 Hz is not necessarily the fundamental frequency. The speed of sound is 343 m/s. How deep is the well?

Answer:

The answers to the question are

(a) The integer n that describes the harmonic whose frequency is 571 Hz is 5

(b) The length of the tube is 0.75 m.

B. The depth of the well is 7.12 m.

Explanation:

The nth harmonic of a tube with one end closed is given by

f_n = n(\frac{v}{4L}) and the next harmonic is

f_{n+2} =(n+2)(\frac{v}{4L} )

Therefore ividing the first two equations by each other we have

\frac{f_{n+2}}{f_n} = \frac{n+2}{n} from which n = \frac{2}{\frac{f_{n+2}}{f_n} -1}

Therefore the interger that descries the first harmonic is

n = \frac{2}{\frac{799}{571} -1} = 5

(b) We have the length of the pipe given by

L = 5λ/4 but λ = v/f = 343/571 = 0.6 ∴ L  = 5*0.6/4 = 0.75 m

B. From n = \frac{2}{\frac{f_{n+2}}{f_n} -1} we have

n for the 36.1 Hz frequency

n = \frac{2}{\frac{60.2}{36.1} -1} = 3 Therefore λ = v/f = 343/36.1 = 9.5 m

L = 3*λ/4 = 3*9.5/4 = 7.12 m

The well is  7.12 m deep

Dmitriy789 [7]
The displacement is the vector with

magnitude
     distance between position at 5 sec and position at 8 sec
and direction
     direction from position at 5 sec to position at 8 sec .

The route followed during the time interval is irrelevant.

What's the difference between a direct relationship and a positive one?
borishaifa [10]
A positive or direct relationship is one in which the two variables (we will generally call them x and y) move together, that is, they either increase or decrease together. In a negative or indirect relationship, the two variables move in opposite directions, that is, as one increases, the other descremases

Why is water considered to be a complex compound
DedPeter [7]
HEY THERE !!

\huge{COMPOUND:-}
Compounds contain two or more different elements. 


Water is a molecule because it contains molecular bonds . Water is also a compound  because it is made from more than one kind of element. (oxygen and hydrogen).

So If you like, you can say that water is a molecular compound.

Question 20
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The image distance is 17.56 cm

Explanation:

We have,

Height of light bulb is 3 cm.

The light bulb is placed at a distance of 50 cm. It means object distance is, u =-50 cm

Focal length of the lens, f = +13 cm

Let v is distance between image and the lens. Using lens formula :

\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}+\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{13}+\dfrac{1}{(-50)}\\\\v=17.56\ cm

So, the image distance is 17.56 cm.
