Whenever a musician plays a guitar, they pluck one of the guitar strings to produce a standing wave in the string. Then pinch do

wn on the string at the other end at the guitar in different places along the neck of the instrument. In doing so, by changing where they pinch the string, the same standing wave on that string can produce multiple different frequencies, and therefore multiple different notes. Using the knowledge you have learned about harmonic frequencies set up on strings, explain why simply changing where you pinch the string can change the frequency.

Answer:

It's due to the distance from either ends of strings origin...

Explanation:

As we know that waves behave moving in a flow from one side to another side and this gives a prospective of motion. Suppose a wave is pinched from the near one end of a guitar then due to the distortion created by the point of tie of strings the wave super imposes and moves with a velocity v and produces a wave frequency f. as we the pinching go down to the center the wave stabilizes itself to a stationary origin right at the center and the frequency then changes accordingly as moving down on the string.

Describe how the number of photoelectrons emitted from a metal plate in the photoelectric effect would change if the following o
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

a) True. The number of photoelectrons is proportional to the amount (intensity) of the incident beam. From the expression above we see that threshold frequency cannot emit electrons.

b)   λ = c / f

Therefore, as the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases and therefore the energy of the photoelectrons emitted,

c)  threshold energy

        h f =Ф

Explanation:

It's photoelectric effect was fully explained by Einstein by the expression

       Knox = h f - fi

Where K is the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons, f the frequency of the incident radiation and fi the work function of the metal

a) True. The number of photoelectrons is proportional to the amount (intensity) of the incident beam. From the expression above we see that threshold frequency cannot emit electrons.

b) wavelength is related to frequency

         λ = c / f

Therefore, as the wavelength increases, the frequency decreases and therefore the energy of the photoelectrons emitted, so there is a wavelength from which electrons cannot be removed from the metal.

c) As the work increases, more frequency radiation is needed to remove the electrons, because there is a threshold energy

        h f =Ф

Which best explains how an object at rest deep in space and far from any massive body behaves compared to an object in free fall
7nadin3 [17]

Answer: They behave the same because, according to the principle of equivalence, the laws of physics work the same in all frames of reference.

Explanation:

According to the equivalence principle postulated by Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, acceleration in space and gravity on Earth have the same effects on objects.

To understand it better, regarding to the equivalence principle, Einstein formulated the following:  

A gravitational force and an acceleration in the opposite direction are equivalent, both have indistinguishable effects.  Because the laws of physics must be accomplished in all frames of reference.

Hence, according to general relativity, gravitational force and acceleration in the opposite direction (an object in free fall, for example) have the same effect.  This makes sense if we deal with gravity not as a mysterious atractive force but as a geometric effect of matter on spacetime that causes its deformation.
