Sometimes, when the wind blows across a long wire, a low-frequency "moaning" sound is produced. The sound arises because a stand

ing wave is set up on the wire, like a standing wave on a guitar string. Assume that a wire (linear density = 0.0190 kg / m ) sustains a tension of 365 N because the wire is stretched between two poles that are 6.93 m apart. The lowest frequency that an average, healthy human ear can detect is 20.0 Hz. What is the lowest harmonic number n that could be responsible for the "moaning" sound?

Answer:

n = 2

Explanation:

Lets see the given parameters.

Length of wire (L) = 6.93

Linear Density of wire (m/L) = 0.019 kg/m

Tension Force (F) = 365 Newtons

Now, the fundamental frequency (f_1) of the wire is given by the formula:

f_1=\frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{F}{m/L}}

Where

L is length of wire

F is the tension force

m/L is the linear density

Plugging in, we get:

f_1=\frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{F}{m/L}}\\f_1=\frac{1}{2*6.93}\sqrt{\frac{365}{0.0190}}\\f_1=10.007

We can say the fundamental frequency to be about 10 Hz

Now, we know that the lowest frequency humans can hear is 20 Hz.

The lowest harmonic number is gotten by dividing this by the fundamental frequency:

20/10 = 2

Thus,

n = 2

Let t = Theta and p = Phi
Tan t = y/x    Then x =y/Tant.
Tant = y/(x-d)  x-d = y/Tanp
y/Tant  - d = y/Tanp
y -d*Tanr = y*Tant/Tanp
y-y*Tant/Tanp  =  d*Tanr
y(1 - Tanr/Tanp = d*Tant

y = d*Tant/(1-Tant/Tanp)

How much mass should be attached to a vertical ideal spring having a spring constant (force constant)of 39.5 N/m so that it will
nordsb [41]

Answer:

m = 1 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

The force constant of the spring, k = 39.5 N/m

The frequency of oscillation, f = 1 Hz

The frequency of oscillation is given by the formula as formula as follows :

f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}} \\\\f^2=\dfrac{k}{4m\pi^2}\\\\m=\dfrac{k}{4\pi^2 f^2}\\\\m=\dfrac{39.5}{4\pi^2 \times (1)^2}\\\\m=1\ kg

So, the mass that is attached to the spring is 1 kg.

PLEASE HELP
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Both physical and chemical changes

Explanation:

From the definition of the law of conservation of mass, total mass of all the substances taking part in a chemical reaction is conserved and the number of atoms of each element in the reaction does not change when a new product is formed. Both physical and chemical changes follow the law since when the system is closed to all transfers of matter and energy, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, irrespective of the state.

3. As the ice melts into liquid water, what happens to the kinetic energy of the particles in the sample?
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

As ice melts into water, kinetic energy is being added to the particles. This causes them to be 'excited' and they break the bonds that hold them together as a solid, resulting in a change of state: solid -> liquid.
