A violinist is tuning her instrument to concert A (440 Hz). She plays the note while listening to an electronically generated to

ne of exactly that frequency and hears a beat of frequency 5.00 Hz, which increases to 6.00 Hz when she tightens her violin string slightly.A) what was the frequency of her violin when she heard the 5.00 Hz beat?B) To get her violin perfectly tuned to concert A, should she tighten or loosen her string from what it was when she heard the 440 Hz beat?-tighten/loosen?

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to beat frequency, i.e., The number of those wobbles per second.

The equation that describes the beat frequency is

f_{beat} = |f_2-f_1|

For our given case we have that the frequency of the instrument is 440Hz and the Beat frequency is 5Hz therefore,

A) The frequency of the violin would be given by

f_{beat} = |f_2-f_1|

5Hz = |f_2-440Hz|

f_2 = 440 \pm 5

f_2 = 445Hz or 435Hz

B) <em>The violinist must loosen the string.</em> As the tightening increases the frequency, thereby increasing the number of beats from 5 to 6, i. e, on thightening the string, the frequency further increases as high frequency will be produced by short trings.

kaheart [24]

Answer:

The possible frequencies for the A string of the other violinist is 457 Hz and 467 Hz.

(3) and (4) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Beat frequency f = 5.0 Hz

Frequency f'= 462 Hz

We need to calculate the possible frequencies for the A string of the other violinist

Using formula of frequency

f'=f_{1}-f...(I)

f'=f_{1}+f...(II)

Where, f= beat frequency

f₁ = frequency

Put the value in both equations

f'=462-5=457\ Hz

f'=462+5=467\ Hz

Hence, The possible frequencies for the A string of the other violinist is 467 Hz and 457 Hz.

coldgirl [10]

Answer: 1.77 s

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the kinematic equation for the position, so we have:

xf= xo+vo*t+(g*t^2)/2  we can consider the origin on the top so the xo=0 and xf=29 m; then

(g*t^2)/2+vo*t-xf=0  vo is the initail velocity, vo=7.65 m/s

then by solving the quadratric equation in t

t=1.77 s
