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

A rocket ship starts from rest and turns on its forward booster rockets causing it to have a constant acceleration of 4 meters p
bagirrra123 [75]

Complete question is;

A rocket ship starts from rest and turns on its forward booster rockets, causing it to have a constant acceleration of 4 m/s² rightward. After 3s, what will be the velocity of the rocket ship?

Answer:

v = 12 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial velocity; u = 0 m/s (because ship starts from rest)

Acceleration; a = 4 m/s²

Time; t = 3 s

To find velocity after 3 s, we will use Newton's first equation of motion;

v = u + at

v = 0 + (4 × 3)

v = 12 m/s

What is the de Broglie wavelength of an object with a mass of 2.50 kg moving at a speed of 2.70 m/s? (Useful constant: h = 6.63×
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

9.82 × 10^{-35} Hz

Explanation:

De Broglie equation is used to determine the wavelength of a particle (e.g electron) in motion. It is given as:

λ = \frac{h}{mv}

where: λ is the required wavelength of the moving electron, h is the Planck's constant, m is the mass of the particle, v is its speed.

Given that: h = 6.63 ×10^{-34} Js, m = 2.50 kg, v = 2.70 m/s, the wavelength, λ, can be determined as follows;

λ = \frac{h}{mv}

  = \frac{6.63*10^{-34} }{2.5*2.7}

 = \frac{6.63 * 10^{-34} }{6.75}

 = 9.8222 × 10^{-35}

The wavelength of the object is 9.82 × 10^{-35} Hz.

Two ice skaters stand in the middle of an ice rink. Drew has a mass of 75 kg, and Lily has a mass of 55 kg. Drew holds Lily, and
ss7ja [257]

PART a)

Before Drew throw Lily in forwards direction they both stays at rest

So initial speed of both of them is zero

So here we can say that initial momentum of both of them is zero

So total momentum of the system initially = ZERO

PART b)

Since there is no external force on the system of two

so there will be no change in the momentum of this system and it will remain same as initial momentum

So final momentum of both of them will be ZERO

PART c)

As we know that momentum of both will be zero always

so we have

P_1 + P_2 = 0

75(v) + 55(2) = 0

v = 1.47 m/s in opposite direction
