A musician playing a string instrument may use a finger to push a string tightly against the fingerboard of her instrument, thus

shortening the length of the string. This causes the fundamental frequency to (a) increase, (b) decrease, (c) not change.

Answer:

a) increase

Explanation:

The frequency of sound produced due to vibration of a string is governed by the following formula  

n = 1/2L√T/m ;

L is length of the string  in vibration, T is tension in the  string  and m is mass of string per unit length.

So frequency is inversely proportional to length of the string. Hence shortning of length of string increases the frequency of vibration.

Physicists often measure the momentum of subatomic particles moving near the speed of light in units of MeV/c, where c is the sp
maxonik [38]

Answer:

kg m/s

Explanation:

e = Charge = C

V = Voltage = \dfrac{N}{C}m

c = Speed of light = m/s

Momentum is given by

\dfrac{MeV}{c}=\dfrac{e\times V}{c}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MeV}{c}=\dfrac{C\times \dfrac{N}{C}\times m}{m/s}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MeV}{c}=Ns\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MeV}{c}=kg\times \dfrac{m}{s}\times s\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{MeV}{c}=kg\cdot m/s

The unit of MeV/c in SI fundamental units is kg m/s

What two factors determine the color of an object?
slamgirl [31]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

4. the material the object is made of and the color of light that strikes it

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The color of an object is the wavelength of light that the object reflects, which is determined by the arrangement of electrons in the atoms of the material making the object.
  • <em><u>We could therefore say that the color of object depends on or is determined by the material making up the object as this determines the the wavelengths of light the object reflects. Lastly, the color of light source also determines the color of the object.</u></em>

How is precipitation related to high and low pressure air?
Ymorist [56]
A pressure system is a relative peak or lull in the sea level pressure distribution. The surface pressure at sea level varies minimally, with the lowest value measured 87 kilopascals (26 inHg) and the highest recorded 108.57 kilopascals (32.06 inHg). High- and low-pressure systems evolve due to interactions of temperature differentials in the atmosphere, temperature differences between the atmosphere and water within oceans and lakes, the influence of upper-level disturbances jargon as well as the amount of solar heating or radiational cooling an area receives. Pressure systems cause weather experienced locally. Low-pressure systems are associated with clouds and precipitation that minimize temperature changes through the day, whereas high-pressure systems normally associated with dry weather and mostly clear skies with larger diurnal temperature changes due to greater radiation at night and greater sunshine during the day. Pressure systems are analyzed by those in the field of meteorology within surface weather maps.

Why do baseball pitchers throw the ball at an angle that is slightly above the horizontal if they want the ball to reach at appr
lesantik [10]

Answer:

The angle above the horizontal at which the pitcher throws the ball determines the distance the ball travels before returning to the height at which it was thrown

Explanation:

The baseball is thrown as a projectile and the range, 'R', of the baseball which is the distance the baseball travels before the height above the ground returns to the initial height  is given given as follows;

R = \dfrac{u^2 \cdot sin(2\cdot \theta )}{g}

Where;

R = The range of the baseball = The horizontal distance away from the pitcher the ball reaches

u = The initial velocity with which the baseball was thrown

θ = The angle above horizontal a baseball pitcher throws the ball

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

From the the equation, when θ = 0, sin(θ) = sin(0) = 0 and the ball does not cover any horizontal distance before going lower than the height at which it was thrown, therefore, for the ball to travel further, the angle of launch, θ has to be larger than 0.
