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

During which phase of the moon do neap tides occur?
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

First Quarter and Third Quarter.

Explanation:

Tides are formed as a consequence of the differentiation of gravity due to the Moon across to the Earth sphere.

Since gravity variates with the distance:

F = G\frac{m1\cdot m2}{r^{2}} (1)

Where m1 and m2 are the masses of the two objects that are interacting and r is the distance between them.

For example, seeing the image below, point A is closer to the Moon than point b, and at the same time the center of mass of the Earth will feel more attracted to the Moon than point B. Therefore, that creates a tidal bulge in point A and point B.

When the Sun and the Moon are alight with respect to the Earth, then the Sun tidal force contributes to the tidal force of the Moon over the Earth. That makes the high tides even higher (spring tides).

               

However, when the Sun is not in the same line than the Moon (the Moon is at 90° with respect to the Sun), then the low tides are higher and the high tides are lower. That scenario is known as neap tides.

           

Therefore, that happens when the Moon is at First Quarter and Third Quarter.

1. A kangaroo hops 84 m to the east in 7 seconds.
DENIUS [597]

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance hopped  = 84m

Displacement  = 84m due east

Time  = 7s

Unknown:

Speed of kangaroo  = ?

Velocity of kangaroo  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem,

    Speed  = \frac{distance}{time }   = \frac{84}{7}  = 12m/s

  Velocity  = \frac{displacement}{time}   = \frac{84}{7}   = 12m/s due east
