A particularly beautiful note reaching your ear from a rare Stradivarius violin has a wavelength of 39.1 cm. The room is slightl

y warm, so the speed of sound is 344 m/s. Part A If the string's linear density is 0.660 g/mg/m and the tension is 160 NN , how long is the vibrating section of the violin string

Given Information:  

Wavelength =  λ = 39.1 cm = 0.391 m

speed of sound = v = 344 m/s

linear density = μ = 0.660 g/m = 0.00066 kg/m

tension = T = 160 N

Required Information:

Length of the vibrating string = L = ?

Answer:

Length of the vibrating string = 0.28 m

Explanation:

The frequency of beautiful note is

f = v/λ

f = 344/0.391

f = 879.79 Hz

As we know, the speed of the wave is

v = √T/μ

v = √160/0.00066

v = 492.36 m/s

The wavelength of the string is

λ = v/f

λ = 492.36/879.79

λ = 0.5596 m

and finally the length of the vibrating string is

λ = 2L

L = λ/2

L = 0.5596/2

L = 0.28 m

Therefore, the vibrating section of the violin string is 0.28 m long.

Why does fluid pressure exist?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Fluid pressure from gravity is the weight of the fluid above divided by the area it is pushing on. Fluid pressure applies in all directions. Internal pressure of an object equals the external fluid pressure, otherwise the object could be crushed. Wind and heating can also create pressure.

A mass m = 75 kg slides on a frictionless track that has a drop, followed by a loop-the-loop with radius R = 19.2 m and finally
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

The velocity is 19.39 m/s

Solution:

As per the question:

Mass, m = 75 kg

Radius, R = 19.2 m

Now,

When the mass is at the top position in the loop, then the necessary centrifugal force is to keep the mass on the path is provided by the gravitational force acting downwards.

F_{C} = F_{G}

\frac{mv^{2}}{R} = mg

where

v = velocity

g = acceleration due to gravity

v = \sqrt{2gR} = \sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 19.2} = 19.39\ m/s
