An Aeolian harp (named after Aeolus, the Greek god of the wind) consists of several strings fixed to a frame or a sounding box.

The device is simply placed outside, and the strings are played randomly by the wind. You decide to make such a harp out of strings that all have a mass per unit length of 2.40 grams per meter, and that all have a tension of 350 N. If you want one of the strings to have a fundamental frequency of 440 Hz, how long should you make it

Answer:

0.434 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass per unit length= $\mu=\frac{m}{l}=2.4 g/m=2.4\times 10^{-3} kg/m$

1 kg=1000 g

Tension=350 N

Fundamental frequency=f=440 Hz

We have to find the length you should make it.

We know that

$l=\frac{1}{2f}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$

Using the formula

$l=\frac{1}{2\times 440}\times\sqrt{\frac{350}{2.4\times 10^{-3}}}$

l=0.434 m

Hence, you should make it 0.434 m long.

Answer:

charge C = greatest net force

charge B = the smallest net force

ratio = 9 : 1

Explanation:

we know that in Electrostatic Forces, when 2 charges are at same sign then they repel each other and if they are different signed charges then they attract each other

so as per Coulomb's formula of Electrostatic Forces

F = $\frac{k\ q_1\ q_2}{r^2}$ .....................1

and here k is 9 × $10^9$ N.m²/c² and we consider each charge at distance d

so two charge force at A to B is

F1 = $\frac{k\ q^2}{d^2}$

and force between charges at A to C, at 2d distance

F1 = $\frac{k\ q^2}{(2d)^2}$ = $\frac{k\ q^2}{4d^2}$

force between charges at A to D, 3d distance

F1 = $\frac{k\ q^2}{(3d)^2}$ = $\frac{k\ q^2}{9d^2}$

so

Charge a It receives force to the left from b and c and to the right from d

so at a will be

F(a) = -F1 - F2 + F3 ....................2

put here value

F(a) = $-\frac{k\ Q^2}{d^2}-\frac{k\ Q^2}{4d^2}+\frac{k\ Q^2}{9d^2}$

solve it

F(a) = $\frac{k\ q^2}{d^2}(-1-\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{9})$

F(a) = $-\frac{41}{36}\ F1$ = 1.13 F1

and

Charge b It receives force to the right from a and d and to the left from c

F(b) = F1 - F1 + F2 ....................3

F(b) = $\frac{k\ q^2}{d^2}-\frac{k\ q^2}{d^2}+\frac{k\ q^2}{4d^2}$

F(b) = $\frac{1}{4} \ F1$ = 0.25 F1

and

Charge c It receives forces to the right from all charges.

F(c) = F2 + F 1 + F 1 ....................4

F(c) = $\frac{k\ q^2}{4d^2}+\frac{k\ q^2}{d^2}+\frac{k\ q^2}{d^2}$

F(c) = $\frac{9}{4} \ F1$ = 2.25 F1

and

Charge d It receives forces to the left from all charges

F(d) = - F3 - F2 -F 1 ....................5

F(d) = $-\frac{k\ q^2}{9d^2}-\frac{k\ q^2}{4d^2}-\frac{k\ q^2}{d^2}$

so

F(d) = $-\frac{49}{36} \ F1$ = 1.36 F1

and

now we get here ratio of the greatest to the smallest net force that is

ratio = $\frac{2.25}{0.25}$

ratio = 9 : 1

if you crash your car how could you decrease the damage to you or the car using the concept of impulse

kotykmax [81]

Explanation:

Crumple zones are sections in cars that are designed to crumple up when the car encounters a collision. Crumple zones minimize the effect of the force in an automobile collision in two ways. By crumpling, the car is less likely to rebound upon impact, thus minimizing the momentum change and the impulse.

If a galaxy has an apparent velocity of 2300 km/s, what is its distance if the Hubble constant is assumed to be 70 km/s/Mpc

prohojiy [21]

The distance of the galaxy is 32.86 Mpc.

Using the hubble law, v = H₀D where v = apparent velocity of galaxy = 2300 km/s, H = hubble constant = 70 km/s/Mpc and D = distance of galaxy.

Since we require the distance of the galaxy, we make D subject of the formula in the equation. So, we have

D = v/H₀

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

D = 2300 km/s ÷ 70 km/s/Mpc

D = 32.86 Mpc

So, the distance of the galaxy is 32.86 Mpc
