Caroline, a piano tuner, suspects that a piano's B4 key is out of tune. Normally, she would play the key along with her B4 tunin

g fork and tune the piano to match, but her B4 tuning fork is missing! Instead, she plays the errant key along with her A4 tuning fork (which has a frequency of 440.0 Hz), displays the resulting waveform on a handheld oscilloscope, and measures a beat frequency of 15.9 Hz. Then, she plays the errant key along with her C5 tuning fork (which has a frequency of 523.3 Hz) and measures a beat frequency of 67.4 Hz. What frequency is being played by the out-of-tune key? If the B4 key is supposed to produce a frequency of 493.9, is the frequency of the key lower than it should be ("flat") or higher than it should be ("sharp")?

Answer:

455.9 Hz, Flat

Explanation:

The beat frequency is basically the difference between the frequency of the B4 note and the frequency of the A4 tuning fork. This means the B4 note is 15.9 Hz off of 440Hz, and 67.4 Hz off of 525.3 Hz. As B4 is between the two notes, it would make sense to find its frequency by adding 15.9 to 440 and subtracting 67.4 from 523.3, both if which give us a frequency 455.9 Hz for the B4 key. This is because the note doesn't change for the different turning forks so both differences should result in the same frequency. Because the note should be 493.9 frequency but instead has a frequency of 455.9 Hz, it is flat because the frequency is lower than it is supposed to be.

Hope this helped!

What is the kinetic energy of 0.01kg bullet traveling at a velocity of 700m/s ?
Nata [24]

Answer:

kinetic energy is 2, 4, 50 thirties, 2.45 into 10, raise to three Julie.

Explanation:

In the given question, we are told that what is the kinetic energy of mass M equals 0.1 kg bullet traveling at a velocity Velocity is given and 700 m/s. So we know that kinetic energy mm-hmm k equals one half m v squared. So this will be mass is given 0.1 and velocity is 700 so 700 square this is one half 0.1 in two 49 double zero, double zero. This is one-half into 49 double zero. So kinetic energy is 2, 4, 50 thirties, 2.45 into 10, raise to three Julie. This is kinetic energy. Thank you.

Skateboard A Force: 33 N Time: 0.12 s Skateboard B Force: 33 N Time: 0.57 s Skateboard C Force: 33 N Time: 0.78 s Which skateboa
nata0808 [166]
The impulse is given by the magnitude of the force times the time interval:
I= F \Delta t
We can see that the force F of the 4 skateboard is always the same (33 N), this means that the skateboard with greatest impulse is the one with the largest time interval, so skateboard C).

Inside a freely falling runaway elevator, your
nasty-shy [4]

The answer is apparent weight is zero.

You are still accelerating downwards at 9.8m/s^2 (if you are on Earth).

You still are being affected by the Earth's gravity.

Not all because of the previous two statements.

Not none because apparent weight is zero as you are falling.
