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.

An iron nails sinks in water,while a large ship floats on the surfacr of water
yaroslaw [1]

I don't exactly understand the substance of the question so im going to assume that the answer you are looking for is buoyancy. Buoyancy determines whether something sinks or floats in water. A ship has a larger buoyancy due to the shape of the hull, a nail is does not and will sink.

A ladder 5.0 m long leans against a wall inside a spaceship. From the point of view of a person on the ship, the base of the lad
andriy [413]

Answer:

the angle the ladder makes with the floor as seen by an observer on Earth is 71.9°

Explanation:

Given the data in the question and as illustrated in the diagram below.

speed of the ship v = 0.90c

base of the ladder from the wall x₀ = 3.0 m

top of the later above the floor y = 4.0 m

we determine angle θ.

from the diagram,

tanθ = y/x₀

tanθ = y / x₀√( 1 - v²/c² )

we substitute

tanθ = 4.0 / 3.0√( 1 - ((0.9c)²/c²) )

tanθ = 4.0 / 3.0√( 1 - ((0.9²)c²/c²) )

tanθ = 4.0 / 3.0√( 1 - (0.9²) )

tanθ = 4.0 / 3.0√( 1 - 0.81 )

tanθ = 4.0 / 3.0√0.19

tanθ = 4.0 / 1.30766968

tanθ = 3.058876

θ = tan⁻¹( 3.058876 )

θ = 71.8965 ≈ 71.9°

Therefore, the angle the ladder makes with the floor as seen by an observer on Earth is 71.9°

You place a cup of 210 degrees F coffee on a table in a room that is 68 degrees F, and 10 minutes later, it is 200 degrees F. Ap
Inga [223]
The answer is 35 minutes

The Newton's law of cooling is:
T(x) = Ta + (To - Ta)e⁻ⁿˣ

T(x) - the temperature of the coffee at time x
Ta - the ambient temperature
To - the initial temperature
n - constant

step 1. Calculate constant k:

We have:
T(x) = 200°F
x = 10 min
Ta = 68°F
To = 210°F
n = ?

T(x) = Ta + (To - Ta)e⁻ⁿˣ
200 = 68 + (210 - 68)e⁻ⁿ*¹⁰
200 = 68 + 142 * e⁻¹⁰ⁿ
200 - 68 = 142 * e⁻¹⁰ⁿ
132 = 142 * e⁻¹⁰ⁿ
e⁻¹⁰ⁿ = 132/142
e⁻¹⁰ⁿ = 0.93

Logarithm both sides with natural logarithm:
ln(e⁻¹⁰ⁿ) = ln(0.93)
-10n * ln(e) = -0.07
-10n * 1 = - 0.07
-10n = -0.07
n = -0.07 / - 10
n = 0.007

Step 2. Calculate time x when T(x) = 180°F:
We have:
T(x) = 180°F
x = ?
Ta = 68°F
To = 210°F
n = 0.007

T(x) = Ta + (To - Ta)e⁻ⁿˣ
180 = 68 + (210 - 68)e⁻⁰.⁰⁰⁷*ˣ
180 - 68 = 142 * e⁻⁰.⁰⁰⁷*ˣ
112 = 142 * e⁻⁰.⁰⁰⁷⁾*ˣ
e⁻⁰.⁰⁰⁷*ˣ = 112/142
e⁻⁰.⁰⁰⁷*ˣ = 0.79

Logarithm both sides with natural logarithm:
ln(e⁻⁰.⁰⁰⁷*ˣ) = ln(0.79)
-0.007x * ln(e) = -0.24
-0.007x * 1 = -0.24
-0.007x = -0.24
x = -0.24 / -0.007
x ≈ 35
