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.

a body weights 28N at a height of 3200km from the earth surface.What will be the gravitational force on that body if its lies on
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The object would weight 63 N on the Earth surface

Explanation:

We can use the general expression for the gravitational force between two objects to solve this problem, considering that in both cases, the mass of the Earth is the same. Notice as well that we know the gravitational force (weight) of the object at 3200 km from the Earth surface, which is (3200 + 6400 = 9600 km) from the center of the Earth:

F_G=G\,\frac{M_E\,m}{d^2} \\28\,\,N=G\,\frac{M_E\,m}{9600000^2}

Now, if the body is on the surface of the Earth, its weight (w) would be:

F_G=G\,\frac{M_E\,m}{d^2} \\w=G\,\frac{M_E\,m}{6400000^2}

Now we can divide term by term the two equations above, to cancel out common factors and end up with a simple proportion:

\frac{w}{28} =\frac{9600000^2}{6400000^2} \\\frac{w}{28} =\frac{9}{4} \\\\ \\w=\frac{9\,*\,28}{4}\,\,\,N\\w=63\,\,N \\

The potential difference between the surface of a 3.0-cm-diameter power line and a point 1.0 m distant is 3.9 kV. Find the line
Korolek [52]

Answer:

The linear charge density is 5.19 X 10⁻⁶ C/m

Explanation:

The potential difference between two cylinders, is given as

V = (λ/2πε)ln(b/a)

where;

λ is the line charge density on the power line.

b is the distance between the power line = 1 m

a is the radius of the wire = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m

ε is the permittivity of free space = 8.9 X 10⁻¹² C

V*2πε = λ* ln(b/a)

3900 *(2π*8.9 x10⁻¹²)= λ *ln(1/0.015)

2.1812 X 10⁻⁷ = 4.1997* λ

λ = 5.19 X 10⁻⁶ C/m

Therefore, the linear charge density is 5.19 X 10⁻⁶ C/m

When storm clouds produce lightning and thunder, energy changes to energy and energy.
balandron [24]
When storm clouds produce lightening and thunder, then, potential energy changes into kinectic energy.

The clouds become negatively charged,and the ground is positively charged during a storm. So there creates a potential difference between the charged clouds and the ground. And when this becomes huge so much that it over comes the electrical insulation cover of air, the electrons jump to the ground.i.e. the potential energy changes into kinetic energy.
