A tuning fork is sounded above a resonating tube (one end closed), which resonates at a length of 0.20 m and again at 0.60 m. If

the tube length were extended further, at what point will the tuning fork again create a resonance condition?

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to resonance. The velocity with which sound travels in any medium may be determined if the frequency and the wavelength are known. Since the pipe is closed at one end, that produces frequencies ratio 1:3:5, then

$n_1 = \frac{V}{4L_1}$

Third resonance occurs at $5n_2$

$n_2 = \frac{V}{4L_2}$

At resonance $5n_2=n_1$

$5\frac{V}{4L_2} = \frac{V}{4L_1}$

$L_2 = 5L_1$

$L_2 = 5*0.2$

$L_2 = 1m$

Therefore at 1m will the tuning fork again create a resonance condition

An athlete kicks a soccer ball that starts at rest so that it leaves their foot with a speed of 10m/s from the top o f a rectang

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

$a=500m/s^2$

Explanation:

We need only to apply the definition of acceleration, which is:

$a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t_f-t_i}$

In our case the final velocity is $v_f=10m/s$ , the initial velocity is $v_i=0m/s$ since it departs from rest, the final time is $t_f=0.02s$ and the initial time we are considering is $t_i=0s$

So for our values we have:

$a=\frac{10m/s-0m/s}{0.02s-0s}=500m/s^2$

explain how the composition of a star that will form a billon years in the future will differ the composition of our sun.

Grace [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Basically the star slowly burns its hydrogen into Helium. Depending on the mass, the star will have a turbulent core where the Helium will be fully mixed or a radiative core where the helium will settle at the centre (remember it's heavier than Hydrogen). The second case is what happens in the Sun.

A racquetball strikes a wall with a speed of 30 m/s and rebounds in the opposite direction with a speed of 26 m/s. The collision

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The average acceleration of the ball during the collision with the wall is $a=2,800m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

<u>Known Data</u>

We will asume initial speed has a negative direction, $v_{i}=-30m/s$ , final speed has a positive direction, $v_{f}=26m/s$ , $\Delta t=20ms=0.020s$ and mass $m_{b}$ .

<u>Initial momentum</u>

$p_{i}=mv_{i}=(-30m/s)(m_{b})=-30m_{b}\ m/s$

<u>final momentum</u>

$p_{f}=mv_{f}=(26m/s)(m_{b})=26m_{b}\ m/s$

<u>Impulse</u>

$I=\Delta p=p_{f}-p_{i}=26m_{b}\ m/s-(-30m_{b}\ m/s)=56m_{b}\ m/s$

<u>Average Force</u>

$F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t} =\frac{56m_{b}\ m/s}{0.020s} =2800m_{b} \ m/s^{2}$

<u>Average acceleration</u>

$F=ma$ , so $a=\frac{F}{m_{b}}$ .

Therefore, $a=\frac{2800m_{b} \ m/s^{2}}{m_{b}} =2800m/s^{2}$

A device for acclimating military pilots to the high accelerations they must experience consists of a horizontal beam that rotat

Natali [406]

centripetal acceleration is given by formula

$a_c = \omega^2*R$

given that

$a_c = 34.1 m/s^2$

$R = 5.91 m$

now we have

$\omega^2 R = 34.1$

$\omega^2 * 5.91 = 34.1$

$\omega^2 = 5.77$

$\omega = 2.4 rad/s$

so the ratationa frequency is given by

$\omega = 2 \pi f$

$2.4 = 2 \pi f$

$f = \frac{2.4}{2\pi}$

$f = 0.38 Hz$
