Answer:
260 Hz
Explanation:
The frequency of a sound wave is defined as the number of oscillation which is given in cycles per time. Frequency (f) is given by the formula ;
and it is measured in Hertz(Hz)
Given that;
a vibration is caused by a struck string in piano at 260 cycles and Time (T) = 1 seconds
Frequency (f) can be determined as; 260 cycles × 1 seconds
= 260 Hertz (Hz)
Hence, the frequency of the sound wave is 260 Hertz (Hz).
Answer:
66.6 kg
Explanation:
The weight of a person at Earth's surface is given by
where
m is the mass of the person
is the acceleration of gravity
The person in the problem has a weight of
W = 653 N
Therefore, we can rearrange the equation to find his mass:
Answer:
Explanation:
The formula for the single-slit diffraction is
where
y is the distance of the n-minimum from the centre of the diffraction pattern
D is the distance of the screen from the slit
d is the width of the slit
is the wavelength of the light
In this problem,
, with n=2 (this is the distance of the 2nd-order minimum from the central maximum)
Solving the formula for d, we find:
