A string of length L, fixed at both ends, is capable of vibrating at 309 Hz in its first harmonic. However, when a finger is pla

ced at a distance ℓ from one end, the remaining length L − ℓ of the string vibrates in its first harmonic with a frequency of 463 Hz. What is the distance ℓ? Express your answer as a ratio of the length L.

Answer:

 i = 0.3326 L

Explanation:

A fixed string at both ends presents a phenomenon of standing waves, two waves with the same frequency that are added together. The expression to describe these waves is

    2 L = n λ           n = 1, 2, 3…

The first harmonic or leather for n = 1

Wave speed is related to wavelength and frequency

     v = λ f

     λ = v / f

Let's replace in the first equation

    2 L = 1 (v / f₁)

For the shortest length L = L-l

   2 (L- l) = 1 (v / f₂)

These two equations form our equation system, let's eliminate v

    v = 2L f₁

    v = 2 (L-l) f₂

    2L f₁ = 2 (L-l) f₂

    L- l = L f₁ / f₂

    l = L - L f₁ / f₂

    l = L (1- f₁ / f₂)

.

Let's calculate

    l / L = (1- 309/463)

    i / L = 0.3326

An unstrained horizontal spring has a length of 0.31 m and a spring constant of 220 N/m. Two small charged objects are attached
Kruka [31]
The solution you should use is Hooke's law: F=-kx

It should have the same signs because they repel due to the stretch of the spring. 

a. Since there is a constant energy within the spring, then Hooke's law will determine the possible algebraic signs. The solution should be 
<span>F = kx 
270 N/m x 0.38 m = 102.6 N 
</span>
b. Then use Coulomb's law; F=kq1q2/r^2 to find the charges produced in the force.

You throw a ball straight down from an apartment balcony to the ground below. The ball has an initial velocity of 5.00m/s, direc
erik [133]
The height of the balcony may be calculated through the equation,
                                h = V₀t + 0.5gt²
where h is the height, V₀ is the initial velocity, g is the gravitational constant and t is time. Substituting the values given above,
                               h = (5 m/s)(2s) + 0.5(10 m/s²)(2 s)²
                                 h  = 30 m
Thus, the height of the balcony is 30 meters.

A solenoid of length 5.0 cm has a cross sectional area of 1.0 cm2 and has 300 uniformly spaced turns. The solenoid is wrapped in
OleMash [197]

The calculated mutual inductance is 8.544 x 10⁻⁵ H.

Two coils have a mutual inductance of 1 henry when emf of 1 volt is induced in coil 1 and when the current flowing through coil 2 is changing at the rate of one ampere per second.

Length of the solenoid= 5.0 cm

Area of cross-section=1.0 cm²

no of spaced turns=300 turns

turns of insulated wire=180 turns

Mutual inductance (M) = μ₀μr N1N2 A/ L

                                     =(4xπx 10⁻⁷) x (6.3 x 10⁻³) x 300 x 180 x 1/ 5

                                     =79.12 x 10⁻¹⁰ x 54000 / 5

                                     =8.544 x 10⁻⁵  H

hence, the mutual inductance is 8.544 x 10⁻⁵ H.
