Answer:

450.78Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of wave in string is directly proportional to its tension. This is mathematically expressed as

F∝T

F = kT where k is the constant of proportionality

From the formula, k = F/T

F1/T1 = F2/T2 = k

If each violin is perfectly tuned at 440 Hz and under 245 N of tension then F1 = 440Hz, T1 = 245N

To get the frequency if the string A is tighten to 251N of tension,

T2 = 251N, F2 =?

Substituting the given values into the equation above to get F2 we have;

440/245 = F2/251

Cross multiplying

245F2 = 440×251

245F2 = 110,440

F2 = 110,440/245

F2 = 450.78Hz

How many planets are there?
beks73 [17]
Hi there!

Assuming you're asking about the solar system, there are nine planets. But, if you're wanting to know about the universe, there are trillions and trillions of planets (most of which we haven't yet discovered). 

Hope this helps!

How does changing the potential difference in a circuit affect the current and the resistance?
Effectus [21]

Answer:

The current will be increased and also for the resistance.

Explanation:

The analysis of a direct current circuit can give us the explanation we need. Using the ohm law, which tells us that the voltage is equal to the product of the current by the resistance we have:

V=I*R\\where\\V= voltage [V]\\I= amperes [amp]\\R=resistance [ohm]\\

The voltage is equal to the potential difference therefore we will have these expressions:

I=\frac{V}{R} \\R= \frac{V}{I}

If we increase the potential differential or circuit voltage, the current will also increase and so does the resistance by increasing the voltage. If we put numerical values in the equation given before, we can confirm this fact.

If the sign of work is negative,
aivan3 [116]

If the sign of work is negative, that means the force and the motion are in opposite directions.

Let's say you see something roll off of the shelf. You catch it, and you let it down slowly and gently.

Gravity exerted down-force on it and it moved down. Gravity did positive work on it.

YOU exerted UP-force on it and it moved down. YOU did negative work on it.

(Also, the falling object exerted down-force on your hand, and your hand moved down. The falling object did positive work on your hand ! Where did THAT energy come from ? It came from the potential energy that the object had while it was on the shelf. Your hand absorbed that energy on the way down, doing negative work. So the object didn't have any kinetic energy when it reached the floor, and it did NOT splinter the floor or shatter in smithereens. It had barely enough energy left to make a sound when it hit the floor.)

n ultraviolet light beam having a wavelength of 130 nm is incident on a molybdenum surface with a work function of 4.2 eV. How f
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

The speed of the electron is 1.371 x 10⁶ m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

wavelength of the ultraviolet light beam, λ = 130 nm = 130 x 10⁻⁹ m

the work function of the molybdenum surface, W₀ = 4.2 eV = 6.728 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

The energy of the incident light is given by;

E = hf

where;

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J/s

f = c / λ

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} \\\\E = \frac{6.626*10^{-34} *3*10^{8}}{130*10^{-9}} \\\\E = 15.291*10^{-19} \ J

Photo electric effect equation is given by;

E = W₀ + K.E

Where;

K.E is the kinetic energy of the emitted electron

K.E = E - W₀

K.E = 15.291 x 10⁻¹⁹ J - 6.728 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

K.E = 8.563 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Kinetic energy of the emitted electron is given by;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

m is mass of the electron = 9.11 x 10⁻³¹ kg

v is the speed of the electron

v = \sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m} } \\\\v =  \sqrt{\frac{2*8.563*10^{-19}}{9.11*10^{-31}}}\\\\v = 1.371 *10^{6} \ m/s

Therefore, the speed of the electron is 1.371 x 10⁶ m/s.
