Answer:

Among the main impacts that mining can cause to the environment are the destruction of the earth's crust, the contamination of the waters, the impact on the flora and fauna of the environment close to mining and the negative effects on human health of nearby populations to the mine, as well as deforestation, earthworks, chemical contamination and other substances used to extract the ore.

If the second harmonic of a certain string is 42 Hz, what is the fundamental frequency of the string?
sdas [7]
Data:
f_{2} = 42 Hz
n (Wave node)
V (Wave belly) 
L (Wave length)
<span>The number of bells is equal to the number of the harmonic emitted by the string.
</span>
f_{n} =  \frac{nV}{2L}

Wire 2 → 2º Harmonic → n = 2

f_{n} = \frac{nV}{2L}
f_{2} = \frac{2V}{2L} &#10;
2V =  f_{2} *2L
V =  \frac{ f_{2}*2L }{2}
V =  \frac{42*2L}{2}
V =  \frac{84L}{2}
V = 42L

Wire 1 → 1º Harmonic or Fundamental rope → n = 1


f_{n} = \frac{nV}{2L}
f_{1} = \frac{1V}{2L}
f_{1} =  \frac{V}{2L}

If, We have:
V = 42L
Soon:
f_{1} = \frac{V}{2L}
f_{1} = \frac{42L}{2L}
\boxed{f_{1} = 21 Hz}

Answer:

<span>The fundamental frequency of the string:
</span>21 Hz

A 0.49-kg cord is stretched between two supports, 7.8m apart. When one support is struck by a hammer, a transverse wave travels
katovenus [111]

To solve this problem we will apply the laws of Mersenne. Mersenne's laws are laws describing the frequency of oscillation of a stretched string or monochord, useful in musical tuning and musical instrument construction. This law tells us that the velocity in a string is directly proportional to the root of the applied tension, and inversely proportional to the root of the linear density, that is,

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

Here,

v = Velocity

\mu= Linear density (Mass per  unit length)

T = Tension

Rearranging to find the Period we have that

T = v^2 \mu

T = v^2 (\frac{m}{L})

As we know that speed is equivalent to displacement in a unit of time, we will have to

T = (\frac{L}{t}) ^2(\frac{m}{L})

T = (\frac{7.8}{0.83})^2 (\frac{0.49}{7.8})

T = 5.54N

Therefore the tension is 5.54N

HELP ASAP!!! Some bands hate playing in school gyms because sound waves easily reflect off the walls and floor. What could you d
jonny [76]

Answer:

1.) Covering the ceiling and walls with soft perforated boards

2.) Hanging curtains round the hall

3.) Having more opening in the wall.

Explanation:

This is due to what we called Reverberation due to poor acoustic properties.

Reverberation can be reduced by;

1.) Covering the ceiling and walls with soft perforated boards

2.) Hanging curtains round the hall

3.) Having more opening in the wall.

What is the value of the composite constant (gmer2e), to be multiplied by the mass of the object mo in the equation above? expre
Bezzdna [24]

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

 

 

F = (G Me Mo) / Re^2 

F / Mo = (G Me) / Re^2 

G = gravitational constant = 6.67384 * 10^-11 m3 kg-1 s-2 

Me = 5.972 * 10^24 kg 

Re^2 = (6.38 * 10^6)^2 m^2 = 40.7044 * 10^12 m^2 = 4.07044 * 10^13 m^2 

G Me / Re^2 = (6.67384 * 10-11 * 5.972 * 10^24) / 4.0704 * 10^13 = 9.7196 m/s^2 

9.7196 m/s^2 = acceleration due to Earth’s gravity 

Therefore, the value of the composite constant (Gme / r^2e) that is to be multiplied by the mass of the object mo in the equation above is 9.7196 m/s^2.
