A woman drops a vibrating tuning fork, which is vibrating at 513 Hertz, from a tall building. Through what distance (in m) has t

he tuning fork fallen when the frequency detected at the starting point is 489 Hertz? (Assume the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.)

Answer:

h = 15.34 m

Explanation:

given,

tuning fork vibration = 513 Hz

speed of sound = 343 m/s

frequency after deflection = 489 Hz

the source (the fork) moves away from the observer, its speed increases and hence the apparent frequency decreases

f_{apparent} = \dfrac{v}{v+u}f_0

489 = \dfrac{343}{343+u}\times 513

0.953 = \dfrac{343}{343+u}

343+u = \dfrac{343}{0.953}

343+u = 359.92

u = 16.92 m/s

height of the building

v² = u² + 2 g s

16.92² = 2 x 9.8 x h

h = 14.61 m

time taken by sound to reach observer

t = \dfrac{14.61}{343}

t =0.0426\ s

in this time tuning fork has fallen one more now,

h' = u t + \dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

h' = 16.92\times 0.0426 + \dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8 \times 0.0426^2

h' = 0.7296 m = 0.73 m

total distance

      h = 14.61 + 0.73

      h = 15.34 m

Help greatly appreciated.

Answer:

If Kepler’s laws define the motion of the planets, Newton’s laws define motion. Thinking on Kepler’s laws, Newton realized that all motion, whether it was the orbit of the Moon around the Earth or an apple falling from a tree, followed the same basic principles. “To the same natural effects,” he wrote, “we must, as far as possible, assign the same causes.” Previous Aristotelian thinking, physicist Stephen Hawking has written, assigned different causes to different types of motion. By unifying all motion, Newton shifted the scientific perspective to a search for large, unifying patterns in nature. Newton outlined his laws in Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica (“Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy,”) published in 1687.

Law I. Every body perseveres in its state of rest, or of uniform motion in a right line, unless it is compelled to change that state by forces impressed theron.

In essence, a moving object won’t change speed or direction, nor will a still object start moving, unless some outside force acts on it. The law is regularly summed up in one word: inertia.

Law II. The alteration of motion is ever proportional to the motive force impressed; and is made in the direction of the right line in which that force is impressed.

Newton’s second law is most recognizable in its mathematical form, the iconic equation: F=ma. The strength of the force (F) is defined by how much it changes the motion (acceleration, a) of an object with some mass (m).

Law III. To every action there is always opposed an equal reaction: or the mutual actions of two bodies upon each other are always equal, and directed to contrary parts.

As Newton himself described: “If you press a stone with your finger, the finger is also pressed by the stone.”
