Two taut strings of identical mass and length are stretched with their ends fixed, but the tension in one string is 1.10 times g

reater than in the other. Waves on the string with the lower tension propagate at 35.2 m/s. The fundamental frequency of that string is 258 Hz. What is the beat frequency when each string is vibrating at its fundamental frequency?

Answer:

The  beat frequency when each string is vibrating at its fundamental frequency is 12.6 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

velocity of wave on the string with lower tension, v₁ = 35.2 m/s

the fundamental frequency of the string, F₁ = 258 Hz

<u>velocity of wave on the string with greater tension;</u>

v_1 = \sqrt{\frac{T_1}{\mu }

where;

v₁ is the velocity of wave on the string with lower tension

T₁ is tension on the string

μ is mass per unit length

v_1 = \sqrt{\frac{T_1}{\mu} } \\\\v_1^2 = \frac{T_1}{\mu} \\\\\mu = \frac{T_1}{v_1^2} \\\\ \frac{T_1}{v_1^2} =  \frac{T_2}{v_2^2}\\\\v_2^2 = \frac{T_2v_1^2}{T_1}

Where;

T₁ lower tension

T₂ greater tension

v₁ velocity of wave in string with lower tension

v₂ velocity of wave in string with greater tension

From the given question;

T₂ = 1.1 T₁

v_2^2 = \frac{T_2v_1^2}{T_1}  \\\\v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{T_2v_1^2}{T_1}} \\\\v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{1.1T_1*(35.2)^2}{T_1}}\\\\v_2 = \sqrt{1.1(35.2)^2} = 36.92 \ m/s

<u>Fundamental frequency of wave on the string with greater tension;</u>

<u />f = \frac{v}{2l} \\\\2l = \frac{v}{f} \\\\thus, \frac{v_1}{f_1}  =\frac{v_2}{f_2} \\\\f_2 = \frac{f_1v_2}{v_1} \\\\f_2 =\frac{258*36.92}{35.2} \\\\f_2 = 270.6 \ Hz<u />

Beat frequency = F₂ - F₁

                          = 270.6 - 258

                          = 12.6 Hz

Therefore, the  beat frequency when each string is vibrating at its fundamental frequency is 12.6 Hz

While running at a constant velocity, how should you throw a ball with respect to you so that you can catch it yourself?
timurjin [86]
You are running at constant velocity in the x direction, and based on the 2D definition of projectile motion, Vx=Vxo. In other words, your velocity in the x direction is equal to the starting velocity in the x direction. Let's say the total distance in the x direction that you run to catch your own ball is D (assuming you have actual values for Vx and D). You can then use the range equation, D= (2VoxVoy)/g, to find the initial y velocity, Voy. g is gravitational acceleration, -9.8m/s^2. Now you know how far to run (D), where you will catch the ball (xo+D), and the initial x and y velocities you should be throwing the ball at, but to find the initial velocity vector itself (x and y are only the components), you use the pythagorean theorem to solve for the hypotenuse. Because you know all three sides of the triangle, you can also solve for the angle you should throw the ball at, as that is simply arctan(y/x).

Which of the below statements are true?
andrezito [222]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Displacement is the distance from the start point to the endpoint, displacement disregard the path taken or the amount traveled.

if you start at point A, then go to point B, and back to point A, the displacement is zero because you started and ended at the same point.

for this question, pretend you started at point A, went east 20 km to point B, and then west 8 km to point C, your displacement is 12 km. 12 km is the distance between point A and point C.

A 26.4 g silver ring (cp = 234 J/kg·°C) is heated to a temperature of 66.2°C and then placed in a calorimeter containing 4.94 ✕
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The final temperature of the mixture = 64.834 °C.

Explanation:

Heat lost by the silver ring = heat gained by the water + heat transferred to the surrounding.

c₁m₁(t₁-t₃) = c₂m₂(t₃-t₂) + Q..............Equation 1

Where c₁ = specific heat capacity of the silver copper, m₁ = mass of the silver copper, t₁ = initial temperature of the silver copper, t₃ = final temperature of the mixture. c₂ = specific heat capacity of water, t₂ = initial temperature of water, m₂ = mass of water, Q = energy transferred to the surrounding.

making t₃ the subject of the equation,

t₃ = [c₁m₁t₁+c₂m₂t₂-Q]/(c₁m₁+c₂m₂)........................ Equation 2

Given: c₁ = 234 J/kg.°C, m₁ = 26.4 g, t₁ = 66.2 °C, c₂ = 4200 J/K.°C, m₂ = 4.92×10⁻² kg, t₂ = 24.0 °C, Q = 0.136 J.

Substituting into equation 2

t₃ = [(234×26.4×66.2)+(4200×0.0492×24)-0.136]/[(234×26.4)+(4200×0.0492)]

t₃ = (408957.12+4959.36-0.136)/(6177.6+206.64)

t₃ = (413916.48-0.136)/6384.24

t₃ = 413916.34/6384.24

Thus the final temperature of the mixture = 64.834 °C.
