A trumpet has a length of 140cm. The first valve lowers the root note by two semitones (f1/f0 = 2-2/12) and the second valve low

ers the root note by one semitone (f2/f0 = 2-1/12). A) What is the change in length for each case? (i.e. how long is the tubing for the valve slides). B) Now suppose the player presses both the first and second valve (this has the expected effect of lowering the note by three semitones), how much extra tubing is added to the length? (do not round) C) What is the new frequency ratio? D) if the ratio is modeled as f3/f0 = 2-n/12 determine n.

Answer:

a.  17.145cm

b. 8.325cm

c. 0.846

d. 2.896

Step-by-step explanation:

It is known that frequency is inversely proportional to length.

Case 1: The player presses only the first valve.

f₁/fo = 2^{-2/12} = lo/l₁

given that lo= 140cm.

l₁ = 2^{2/12}lo = 157.145

change in length:

l₁ - lo = 157.145 - 140 = 17.145cm

Case 2: The player presses only the second valve.

f₂/fo = 2^{-1/12} = lo/l₂

l₂ = 2^{1/12}lo = 148.325cm

l₂  - lo= 148.325-140 = 8.325cm

Case 3: The player presses both the first and second valve.

Change in length is the sum of change in length when they are individually pressed.

l₃ - lo = 17.145+8.325 = 25.47cm

l₃ = 25.47cm+lo = 165.47cm

f₃/fo  = 2^{-n/12} = lo/l₃

f₃/fo = 2^{-n/12} = 140/{165.47 = 0.846

2^{-n/12} = 0.846\Rightarrow n/12 = -log(0.846)/log(2) = 0.2413

n = 0.2413*12 = 2.896

X + y = 3 <br>-2x + 4y = 6
Finger [1]
I'm assuming this is a system of equations you want solved so,

x = -y + 3

-2(-y+3)+4y = 6
2y - 6 + 4y = 6
6y = 12
y = 2

x + 2 = 3
x = -1

Different shapes are drawn on cards and then the cards are placed in a bag. The number of cards for each shape is shown in the t
Verdich [7]
This question was posted almost a week ago, and I am not sure if you still need the answer, but I'll explain it.


The total number of all of the shapes were placed in the bag are equal to 100. The number comes from adding 32+20+48=100.
This is our total number and will be the denominator.
There are a total of 32 cards which have a hexagon, this number will be our numerator.

So far we have 32/100 , but this is not simplest form.

Next to reduce the fraction, the GCF must be found.

32: 1, 2, 4, 8, 32
100: :
