One string of a certain musical instrument is 70.0 cm long and has a mass of 8.79 g . It is being played in a room where the spe

ed of sound is 344 m/s.a. What tension must you adjust the string so that, when vibrating in its second overtone, it produces sound of wavelength 0.768m ? b. What frequency sound does this string produce in its fundamental mode of vibration?

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts of linear mass density, and the expression of the wavelength with which we can find the frequency of the string. With these values it will be possible to find the voltage value. Later we will apply concepts related to harmonic waves in order to find the fundamental frequency.

The linear mass density is given as,

\mu = \frac{m}{l}

\mu = \frac{8.79*10^{-3}}{70*10^{-2}}

\mu = 0.01255kg/m

The expression for the wavelength of the standing wave for the second overtone is

\lambda = \frac{2}{3} l

Replacing we have

\lambda = \frac{2}{3} (70*10^{-2})

\lambda = 0.466m

The frequency of the sound wave is

f_s = \frac{v}{\lambda_s}

f_s = \frac{344}{0.768}

f_s = 448Hz

Now the velocity of the wave would be

v = f_s \lambda

v = (448)(0.466)

v = 208.768m/s

The expression that relates the velocity of the wave, tension on the string and linear mass density is

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

v^2 = \frac{T}{\mu}

T= \mu v^2

T = (0.01255kg/m)(208.768m/s)^2

T = 547N

The tension in the string is 547N

PART B) The relation between the fundamental frequency and the n^{th} harmonic frequency is

f_n = nf_1

Overtone is the resonant frequency above the fundamental frequency. The second overtone is the second resonant frequency after the fundamental frequency. Therefore

n=3

Then,

f_3 = 3f_1

Rearranging to find the fundamental frequency

f_1 = \frac{f_3}{3}

f_1 = \frac{448Hz}{3}

f_1 = 149.9Hz

Naddik [55]

The force of friction is 213.2 N

Explanation:

The frictional force acting on an object sliding on a surface is given by:

F_f = \mu mg

where:

\mu is the coefficient of friction

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

In this problem we have

\mu=0.750

m = 29 kg

g=9.8 m/s^2

Therefore, the force of friction is

F_f = (0.750)(29)(9.8)=213.2 N

A parallel-plate air capacitor is made from two plates 0.190 m square, spaced 0.770 cm apart. It is connected to a 120 V battery
Naddik [55]

Answer:

aaksj

Explanation:

a) the capacitance is given of a plate capacitor is given by:

C = \epsilon_0*(A/d)

Where \epsilon_0 is a constant that represents the insulator between the plates (in this case air, \epsilon_0 = 8.84*10^(-12) F/m), A is the plate's area and d is the distance between the plates. So we have:

The plates are squares so their area is given by:

A = L^2 = 0.19^2 = 0.0361 m^2

C = 8.84*10^(-12)*(0.0361/0.0077) = 8.84*10^(-12) * 4.6883 = 41.444*10^(-12) F

b) The charge on the plates is given by the product of the capacitance by the voltage applied to it:

Q = C*V = 41.444*10^(-12)*120 = 4973.361 * 10^(-12) C = 4.973 * 10^(-9) C

c) The electric field on a capacitor is given by:

E = Q/(A*\epsilon_0) = [4.973*10^(-9)]/[0.0361*8.84*10^(-12)]

E = [4.973*10^(-9)]/[0.3191*10^(-12)] = 15.58*10^(3) V/m

d) The energy stored on the capacitor is given by:

W = 0.5*(C*V^2) = 0.5*[41.444*10^(-12) * (120)^2] = 298396.8*10^(-12) = 0.298 * 10 ^6 J

A uniform rod of length L is pivoted at L/4 from one end. It is pulled to one side through a very small angle and allowed to osc
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

T= 4.24sec

Explanation:

We are going to use the formula below to calculate.

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }

Where T is period

           L is length of rod

       g is acceleration due to gravity =     9.8m/s^{2}

From the problem, the rod is pivoted at 1/4L which means that three quarter of the rod was used for the oscillation. lets call this L_{O}

L_{O} = 3/4 * 5.95m

        = 4.4625m

thus   T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L_{O} }{g} }

          T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{4.4625 }{9.8} }

          T= 4.24sec

Answer:

<em>The first law states that</em> every planet describes an elliptical path about the sun as a single focus.

<em>The</em><em> </em><em>second</em><em> </em><em>law</em><em> </em><em>states</em><em> </em><em>that</em><em> </em>The line joining the planet to the sun sweeps out equal areas in equal time intervals.

<em>The</em><em> </em><em>third</em><em> </em><em>law</em><em> </em><em>states</em><em> </em><em>that</em><em> </em>The squares of the period of revolution is proportional to the cubes of the mean distance between the planet and the sun
