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)

Why are there two fluoride ions in magnesium fluoride but only one fluoride ion in lithium fluoride
postnew [5]
This would be more of a chemistry question. Remember magnesium has a charge of 2+, and would need to hand off its two extra electrons. Fluorine can only take one electron at a time, so there needs to be two fluorines to take one magnesium's 2 electrons. 

With lithium, it has a +1 charge, so it has one extra electron, which it can hand off to just 1 fluorine atom. 

Another way of looking at this is: Mg^{2+} + 2F^{-} = MgF2  (the charges must balance out to zero)

Li^{+} + F^{-} = LiF (the charges balance out to zero)

The gravitational force between two objects that
leonid [27]

Answer:

The answer to your question is    m₂ = 38.5 kg

Explanation:

Data

distance = d = 2.1 x 10⁻¹ m

Force = 3.2 x 10⁻⁶ N

m₁ = 55 kg

m₂ = ?

G = 6.67 x 10 ⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

Process

1.- To solve this problem use Newton's law of Universal Gravitation.

             F = G m₁m₂ / r²

-Solve for m₂

            m₂ = Fr² / Gm₁

2.- Substitution

            m₂ = (3.2 x 10⁻⁶)(2.1 x 10⁻¹)² / (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹)(55)

3.- Simplification

            m₂ = 1.411 x 10⁻⁷ / 3.669 x 10⁻⁹

4.- Result

            m₂ = 38.5 kg

"Compared to infrared radiation, does ultraviolet radiation have longer or shorter wavelengths? Does ultraviolet radiation have
balu736 [363]

Answer:Ultraviolet radiation has shorter wavelengths and higher energy than infrared radiation.

Explanation: Electromagnetic radiation radiations which have both electrical and magnetic properties,they can be transmitted through space or through a medium.

It includes Gamma radiation, infra-red, visible light, Ultraviolet radiation etc they occur with different wavelength, the lower the wavelength the higher the Energy dissipated per photon. According to their order of decreasing wavelength and increased energy they are classified as follows.

RADIO WAVE, MICRO WAVE, INFRA-RED, VISIBLE LIGHT, ULTRAVIOLET RAY, X-RAY, GAMMA RAYS.
