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

10. According to Newton's First Lawy , if a box is pushed with no external resistance, what will the action of the box be ?
kati45 [8]

Explanation:

According to Newton's First Law of motion, if a box is pushed with no external resistance, the box will keep on moving due to the absence of external force. It might gets stopped due to frictional force that is acting between the surface and the ball. The first law of motion is also known as law of inertia. the magnitude of force acting on the object is given by second law of motion.

A force of 8.0 N is along x direction, another force of 6.0 N is along +y direction. If both forces are acting on a point object
Darya [45]

Answer:

Resultant force, R = 10 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting along +x direction, F_x=8\ N

Force acting along +y direction, F_y=6\ N

Both the forces are acting on a point object located at the origin. Let the resultant force of the object is given by R. So,

R=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2+F_xF_y\ cos\theta}

Here \theta=90^{\circ}

R=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

R=\sqrt{8^2+6^2}

R = 10 N

So, the resultant force on the object is 10 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A grandfather clock depends on the period of a pendulum to keep correct time.(ii) Suppose a grandfather clock is calibrated corr
ANEK [815]

The grandfather clock will now run slow (Option A).

<h3>What is Time Period of an oscillation?</h3>
  • The time period of an oscillation refers to the time taken by an object to complete one oscillation.
  • It is the inverse of frequency of oscillation; denoted by "T".

Now,

  • \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}, where L is the length and g is the gravitational constant, is the formula for a pendulum's period.
  • The period will increase as one climbs a very tall mountain because g will slightly decrease.
  • Due to this and the previous issue, the clock runs slowly and it seems that one second is longer than it actually is.

Hence, the grandfather clock will now run slow (Option A).
