A nylon guitar string is fixed between two lab posts 2.00 m apart. The string has a linear mass density of μ=7.20 g/m\mu=7.20~\t

ext{g/m}μ=7.20 g/m and is placed under a tension of 160.00 N. The string is placed next to a tube, open at both ends, of length L. The string is plucked and the tube resonates at the n=1 mode. The speed of sound is 343 m/s. What is the length of the tube?

Answer:

4.6 m

Explanation:

First of all, we can find the frequency of the wave in the string with the formula:

f=\frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

where we have

L = 2.00 m is the length of the string

T = 160.00 N is the tension

\mu =7.20 g/m = 0.0072 kg/m is the mass linear density

Solving the equation,

f=\frac{1}{2(2.00 m)}\sqrt{\frac{160.00 N}{0.0072 kg/m}}=37.3 Hz

The frequency of the wave in the string is transmitted into the tube, which oscillates resonating at same frequency.

The n=1 mode (fundamental frequency) of an open-open tube is given by

f=\frac{v}{2L}

where

v = 343 m/s is the speed of sound

Using f = 37.3 Hz and re-arranging the equation, we find L, the length of the tube:

L=\frac{v}{2f}=\frac{343 m/s}{2(37.3 Hz)}=4.6 m

it took 3.5 hours for a train to travel the distance between two cities at a velocity of 120 miles per hour. How many miles lie
Art [367]

Given:

Time: 3.5 hrs

Velocity: 120 miles/hr

Now Distance=  Speed × Time

Now Velocity and speed have the same magnitude. Velocity being a vector quantity has a definite direction. Whereas speed is a scalar quantity,it indicates only the magnitude an doesn't define any direction.

Hence Distance = Velocity x time

Distance = 3.5 × 120 = 420 miles

What does Newton's first law describe?
ahrayia [7]
B I think. Newtons first law talks about how if some thing is traveling at like 5 mph it’ll stay at 5 mph forever until the force is put on it.

You are listening to the radio when one of your favorite songs comes on, so you turn up the volume. If you managed to increase t
andrew-mc [135]

To solve this problem we need to apply the corresponding sound intensity measured from the logarithmic scale. Since in the range of intensities that the human ear can detect without pain there are large differences in the number of figures used on a linear scale, it is usual to use a logarithmic scale. The unit most used in the logarithmic scale is the decibel yes described as

\beta_{dB} = 10log_{10} \frac{I}{I_0}

Where,

I = Acoustic intensity in linear scale

I_0 = Hearing threshold

The value in decibels is 17dB, then

17dB = 10log_{10} \frac{I}{I_0}

Using properties of logarithms we have,

\frac{17}{10} = log_{10} \frac{I}{I_0}

log_{10} \frac{I}{I_0} = 1.7

\frac{I}{I_0} = 10^{1.7}

\frac{I}{I_0} = 50.12 W/m^2

Therefore the factor that the intensity of the sound was 50.12W/m^2
