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.

A single brick falls with acceleration g. The reason a double brick falls with the same acceleration is
LekaFEV [45]

The reason is because the force due to the acceleration from gravity is constant. It's the same as the typical "dropping a bowling ball and feather (with no air resistance) at the same time". Gravity acts on all object with the same acceleration regardless of physical properties.

A man whose mass is 69 kg and a woman whose mass is 52 kg sit at opposite ends of a canoe 5 m long, whose mass is 20 kg. Suppose
dusya [7]

Answer:

the canoe moved 1.2234 m in the water

Explanation:

Given that;

A man whose mass = 69 kg

A woman whose mass = 52 kg

at opposite ends of a canoe 5 m long, whose mass is 20 kg

now let;

x1 = position of the man

x2 = position of canoe

x3 = position of the woman

Now,

Centre of mass = [m1x1 + m2x2 + m3x3] / m1 + m2 + m3

= ( 69×0 ) + ( 52×5) + ( 20× 5/2) / 69 + 52 + 20

= (0 + 260 + 50 ) / ( 141 )

= 310 / 141

= 2.19858 m

Centre of mass is 2.19858 m

Now, New center of mass will be;

52 × 2.5 / ( 69 + 52 + 20 )

= 130 / 141

= 0.9219858 m  { away from the man }

To get how far, the canoe moved;

⇒ 2.5 + 0.9219858 - 2.19858

= 1.2234 m

Therefore, the canoe moved 1.2234 m in the water

A 25 kg ball is thrown into the air when thrown it's going 10 m/s calculate how high it travels
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
On Earth, the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s² downward.
So any object with only gravity acting on it gains 9.8 m/s of
downward speed every second.

If the rock starts out moving upward at 10 m/s, then it will
continue upward for only  (10/9.8) = 1.02 second, before
it stops rising and starts falling.

Its average speed during that time is  (1/2) (10 + 0) = 5 m/s .

At an average speed of 5 m/s for 1.02 sec,
the rock rises

                   (5 m/s) x (1.02 sec)  =  5.102 meters .

When an average force F is exerted over a certain distance on a shopping cart of mass m, its kinetic energy increases by 12mv2.
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

A)d=\dfrac{1}{2F}mv^2

B)\Delta KE'=2\times \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Explanation:

Given that

Force  = F

Increase in Kinetic energy = \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

\Delta KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

we know that

Work done by all the forces =change in the kinetic energy

a)

Lets distance = d

We know work done by force F

W= F .d

F.d=ΔKE

F.d=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

d=\dfrac{1}{2F}mv^2

b)

If the force become twice

F' = 2 F

F'.d=ΔKE'

2 F .d = ΔKE'                          ( F.d =Δ KE)

2ΔKE = ΔKE'

\Delta KE'=2\times \dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Therefore the final kinetic energy will become the twice if the force become twice.
