Describe how you expect the waveform and the sound you hear changes when you hit the tuning fork harder.

Physics
1 answer:
myrzilka [38]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

In a tuning fork, two basic qualities of sound are considered, they are

1) The pitch of the waveform: This pitch depends on the frequency of the wave generated by hitting the tuning fork.

2) The loudness of the waveform: This loudness depends on the intensity of the wave generated by hitting the tuning fork.

Hitting the tuning fork harder will make it vibrate faster, increasing the number of vibrations per second. The number of vibration per second is proportional to the frequency, so hitting the tuning fork harder increase the frequency. From the explanation on the frequency above, we can say that by increasing the frequency the pitch of the tuning fork also increases.

Also, hitting the tuning fork harder also increases the intensity of the wave generated, since the fork now vibrates faster. This increases the loudness of the tuning fork.

A pitcher exerts a force on a baseball that is 30 times the balls weight. How fast is the pitcher accelerating the ball?
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

 Pitcher is accelerating the ball at 30 times of acceleration due to gravity = 294 m/s²

Explanation:

  Force applied on baseball = 30 times weight of the ball.

   Weight of ball = mg, where m is the mass of ball and g is acceleration due to gravity value.

  We have force applied is also equal to product of mass and acceleration.

                            F = ma = 30 x mg

                                 a = 30g

   So, pitcher is accelerating the ball at 30 times of acceleration due to gravity = 294 m/s²

An ideal gas in a piston is placed in a refrigerator, which removes 413 J of energy from the gas via cooling. The plunger on the
maria [59]

Answer:

The net change in the internal energy of the gas in the piston is -343J

Explanation:

Because heat and workdone are the only means of energy transfer between the system and the surrounding, change in internal energy is given by;

∆E = q + w

q = heat transfer

w = workdone

Because heat is lost by the system, the heat transfer is negative

q = -413J

Because work is done on the system, workdone is positive

w = +70J

∆E = -413J + 70J

∆E = -343J

Explain the value or importance of using the international system of units when describing motion
adoni [48]
<span>It is important to use the Système Internationale (SI) units to describe motion, and other scientific concepts, firstly because the units are the most widely used. Unit choice is largely arbitrary, however, because many scientific units are derived from the base SI units, for example, the Newton is kg m s-2. Thus, secondly, more complex units are based on the bedrock of the SI units.</span>
