The 6 strings on a guitar all have about the same length and are stretched with about the same tension.The highest string vibrat

es with a frequency that is 4 times that of the lowest string.
If the strings are made of the same material, how would you expect the diameters of the lowest and highest strings to compare?

A. d(low)=2d(high)
B. d(low)=4d(high)
C. d(low)=16d(high)

Answer:

B. d(low)=4d(high)

Explanation:

Frequency of a string can be written as;

f = v/2L

Where;

v = sound velocity

L = string length

Frequency can be further expanded to;

f = v/2L = (1/2L)√(T/u) ......1

Where;

m= mass,

u = linear density of string,

T = tension

p = density of string material

A = cross sectional area of string

d = string diameter

u = m/L .......2

m = pAL = p(πd^2)L/4 (since Area = (πd^2)/4)

f = (1/2L)√(T/u) = (1/2L)√(T/(m/L))

f = (1/2L)√(T/((p(πd^2)L/4)/L))

f = (1/2L)√(4T/pπd^2)

f = (1/L)(1/d)√(4T/pπ)

Since the length of the strings are the same, the frequency is inversely proportional to the string diameter.

f ~ 1/d

So, if

4f(low) = f(high)

Then,

d(low) = 4d(high)

A 50.0 kg object rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.300 and
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

f=140\ N

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of the object on a horizontal surface, m=50\ kg
  • coefficient of static friction, \mu_s=0.3
  • coefficient of kinetic friction, \mu_k=0.2
  • horizontal force on the object, F=140\ N

<u>Now the value of limiting frictional force offered by the contact surface tending to have a relative motion under the effect of force:</u>

F_s=\mu_s.N

where:

N= normal force of reaction acting on the body= weight of the body

F_s=0.3\times (50\times 9.8)

F_s=147\ N

As we know that the frictional force acting on the body is always in the opposite direction:

So, the frictional force will not be at its maximum and will be equal in magnitude to the applied external force and hence the body will not move.

so, the frictional force will be:

f=140\ N
