What is the length (in m) of a tube that has a fundamental frequency of 108 Hz and a first overtone of 216 Hz if the speed of so
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Length of a tube = 1.574 m

Explanation:

Given:

Fundamental frequency (f1) = 108 Hz

First overtone (f2) = 216 Hz

Speed of sound (v) = 340 m/s

Find:

Length of a tube

Computation:

We know that,

f = v / λ

f = nv / 2L  [n = number 1,2,3]

So,

f1 = 1(340) / 2L

f1 = 170 / L

L = 170 / 108 = 1.574 m

f2 = 2(340) / 2L

L = 340 / 216

L = 1.574 m

Outside our solar system the closest star to earth is Proxima century life from the start takes 2200000 minutes to reach earth.
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

2200000 = 2.2E6 min for light from Proxima to reach earth

8.3 min from light sun to reach earth

2.2E6/8.3 = 2.56E5   times for light from Proxima

Proxima is about 256,000 times farther away than the sun

Since the sun is about 93,000,000 = 9.3E7 miles from earth

Proxima is then 9.3E7 * 2.56E5 = 2.4E13 miles away

Note - the speed of light is

3.00E8 m/s * 60 s/min / 1000 m/km = 1.8E7 km/min as given

The world's fastest humans can reach speeds of about 11 m/s.In order to increase his gravitational potential energy by an amount
xeze [42]

Answer:

The sprinter need to climb 6.17 m

Explanation:

From the question,

Ep = Ek...................... Equation 1

Where Ep = potential energy, Ek = kinetic energy.

therefore,

mgh = 1/2mv².................... Equation 2

Where m = mass of the human, v = speed, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity.

making h the subject of formula in equation 2

h = 1/2v²/g...................... Equation 3

Given: v = 11 m/s

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substituting these values into equation 3,

h = 1/2(11²)/9.8

h = 6.17 m.

Therefore the sprinter need to climb 6.17 m
