So mathematical harmonics are based around a divergent set of fractions. Sigma(1/n)
with the 1st harmonic being... well 1, or 1 full wavelength.The second harmonic is exactly 1/2 the wavelength of the 1st with the third being 1/3 the wavelength. As Wavelengths go down, frequencies go up in a perfect ratio.

Second Harmonic has double the Frequency of the 1st or base note. Third Harmonic is triple and so on.

So the Harmonic set of 375 is.
1. 375
2. 375×2=750
3. 375×3= 1125

etc (: I hope this helps.

If you could shine a very powerful flashlight beam toward the Moon, estimate the diameter of the beam when it reaches the Moon.

grin007 [14]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the Rayleigh Criterion (Angular resolution)criterion. This conceptos describes the ability of any image-forming device such as an optical or radio telescope, a microscope, a camera, or an eye, to distinguish small details of an object, thereby making it a major determinant of image resolution. By definition is defined as:

$\theta = 1.22\frac{\lambda}{d}$

Where,

$\lambda$ = Wavelength

d = Width of the slit

$\theta$ = Angular resolution

Through the arc length we can find the radius, which would be given according to the length and angle previously described.

The radius of the beam on the moon is

$r = l\theta$

Relacing $\theta$

$r = l(\frac{1.22\lambda}{d})$

$r = 1.22\frac{l\lambda}{d}$

Replacing with our values we have that,

$r = 1.22*(\frac{(384*10^3km)(\frac{1000m}{1km})(550*10^{-9}m)}{7*10^{{-2}}})$

$r = 3680.91m$

Therefore the diameter of the beam on the moon is

$d = 2r$

$d = 2 * (3690.91)$

$d = 7361.8285m$

Hence, the diameter of the beam when it reaches the moon is 7361.82m

What is the velocity of a bicycle in meters per second if it travels 1 kilometer west in 4.1 minutes

valentinak56 [21]

1 kilometre is equal to 1000m
and 4.1 minutes is equal to 246 seconds
thus 1000/246 = 4.065 m/s
and the direction is towards the west

A car travels from point A to point B, moving in the same direction but with a non-constant speed. The first half of the distanc

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

From A to B

distance traveled with velocity $v_1$ in time $t_1$

$\frac{d}{2}=v_1t_1----1$

from B to C

distance traveled is 0.5 d with $v_2$ and $v_3$ velocity for half-half time

$\frac{d}{2}=\frac{v_2t_2}{2}+\frac{v_3t_3}{2}----2$

divide 1 and 2 we get

$\frac{1}{1}=\frac{2v_1t_1}{v_2t_2+v_3t_3}$

$\frac{t_1}{t_2}=\frac{v_2+v_3}{2v_1}$

Now average velocity is given by

$v_{avg}=\frac{d}{t_1+t_2}$

taking $t_1$ common

$v_{avg}=\frac{2v_1t_1}{t_1(1+\frac{t_2}{t_1})}$

$v_{avg}=\frac{2v_1}{1+\frac{2v_1}{v_2+v_3}}$

$v_{avg}=\frac{2v_1(v_2+v_3)}{2v_1+v_2+v_3}$
