A trumpet player is tuning his instrument by playing an A note simultaneously with the first-chair trumpeter, who has perfect pi

KIM [24]

To develop this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Beat

The Beat is an acoustic phenomenon that is generated by two sine waves interfering with slightly different frequencies. The beat frequency is equal to the difference in the frequencies of the two original waves:

$f_{bat} = |(f_1 \pm f_B)|$

Our values are given as

$f_1 = 440Hz$

$f_B = 2.1Hz$

For the particular case we have two possible frequencies:

$1) f_{bat} = |(f_1 - f_B)|$

$f_{bat} = |(440 - 2.1)|$

$f_{bat} = 437.9Hz$

$2) f_{bat} = |(f_B + f_1)|$

$f_{bat} = |(440 +2.1)|$

$f_{bat} = 442.1Hz$

Therefore the two possibles frequencies of the other players note are 437.9Hz and 442.1Hz

What is the mass in kg of a leopard in a tree if the tree branch is 36 m up and the leopard's gravitational potential energy is

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

83.3kg

Explanation:

GPE = m × g × h

GPE = mass of leopard × 10 × 36m

29988J = 360 × mass

mass = 83.3kg

In his famous experiment, Rutherford fired alpha particles at a thin gold film. Most of the alpha particles went through the fir

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

1. The nucleus is about 1/2 the size of the atom

Explanation:

Alpha particles are positive charge particles and they are bounced back by the nucleus because nucleus is also same size

Now in present experiment Rutherford found that very few alpha particles are bounced back along same path which shows that very small region inside the nucleus is having positive charge and rest part of the atom is empty.

Now if we found that half of the alpha particles are bounced back then it shows that size of the nucleus is very large now as compare to previous one because only nucleus can bounce back the alpha particles

so correct answer will be

1. The nucleus is about 1/2 the size of the atom

Why are some fasteners double or triple threaded?

OLga [1]

<span>Fasteners are double or triple threaded with the idea of durability. People look for durability in a fastener and if they receive one with triple threaded or double threaded they will feel more safe and at ease knowing it has extra strength added.</span>

How long does it take (in minutes) for light to reach venus from the sun, a distance of 1.152 × 108 km?

7nadin3 [17]

Using the precise speed of light in a vacuum ( $299,792,458 \ \frac{m}{s}$ ), and your given distance of $1.152 * 10^{8} km$ , we can convert and cancel units to find the answer. The distance in m, using $\frac{1000 \ m}{1 \ km}$ , is $1.152 * 10^{11} m$ . Next, for the speed of light, we convert from s to min, using $\frac{1 \ min}{60 \ s}$ , so we divide the speed of light by 60. Finally, dividing the distance between the Sun and Venus by the speed of light in km per min, we find that it is 6.405 min.
