a. 1.6 times as long
b. 6.1 times as long
c. 9.8 times as long
d. 15.7 times as long

Which of the following best defines force

vlada-n [284]

The middle one on the list is the correct one.

The first one ... distance divided by time ... is Speed, not force.

The third one ... mass times velocity ... is Momentum, not force.

A piano tuner sounds two strings simultaneously. One has been previously tuned to vibrate at 293.0 Hz. The tuner hears 3.0 beats

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Part a)

$f_B = 290 Hz$

Part B)

percentage increase is

$percentage = 1.38$ %

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that the beat frequency is

$f_A - f_B = 3$

after increasing the tension the beat frequency is decreased and hence the tension in string B will increase

So we have

$293 - f_B = 3$

$f_B = 290 Hz$

Part B)

percentage increase in the tension of the string will be given as

$f_A - f_B' = 1$

$f_B' = 292 Hz$

now we have

$f = \frac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}$

so we have

$T_1 = C (290)^2$

$T_2 = C(292)^2$

so we have

$\frac{\Delta T}{T} = \frac{292^2 - 290^2}{290^2}$

percentage increase is

$percentage = 1.38$

A certain thin lens is made of glass with refraction index ????lens=1.500. In air, where the index of refraction is 1.000, the l

son4ous [18]

Answer:

The focal length of the lens in ethyl alcohol is 41.07 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Refractive index of glass= 1.500

Refractive index of air= 1.000

Refractive index of ethyl alcohol = 1.360

Focal length = 11.5 cm

We need to calculate the focal length of the lens in ethyl alcohol

Using formula of focal length for glass air system

$\dfrac{1}{f}=(n_{g}-n_{a})(\dfrac{1}{R_{1}}-\dfrac{1}{R_{2}})$

Using formula of focal length for glass ethyl alcohol system

$\dfrac{1}{f'}=(n_{g}-n_{ethyl})(\dfrac{1}{R_{1}}-\dfrac{1}{R_{2}})$

Divided equation (II) by (I)

$\dfrac{f'}{f}=\dfrac{n_{g}-n_{a}}{n_{g}-n_{ethyl}}$

Where, $n_{g}$ = refractive index of glass

$n_{a}$ = refractive index of air

$n_{ethyl}$ = refractive index of ethyl

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{f'}{11.5}=\dfrac{1.500-1.000}{1.500-1.360}$

$\dfrac{f'}{11.5}=\dfrac{25}{7}$

$f'=\dfrac{25}{7}\times11.5$

$f'=41.07\ cm$

Hence, The focal length of the lens in ethyl alcohol is 41.07 cm.
