Impulse = change in momentum
The answer is 0.
1. I think a drum would be the easiest instrument to explain. You can vary the pitch and loudness by hitting it with different intensities or at different points or angles.
PS. I'm not talking about a drumset. I'm talking about an ordinary drum.
2. Different types of instruments sound different even though they play the same notes because they use different mechanisms for producing sound.
Answer:
a) 
b) 
Explanation:
Part a
For this case we can begin finding the period like this:

Then we know that the centripetal acceleration is given by:

And the velocity is given by:

If we replace this into the acceleration we got:

And we can replace the values and we got:

Part b
For this case we want to find a value of k such that:

Where a = 9.74, so then we can solve for k like this:

Answer:
308,000 or 30.8×10^3
Explanation:
v=f×lamda
v is ?, f is 875Hz, lamda is 352m
v=875×352
v=308,000
v=30.8×10^3 m/s
