A particularly beautiful note reaching your ear from a rare stradivarius violin has a wavelength of 39.1 cm. the room is slightl

raketka [301]

The wavelength of the note is $\lambda = 39.1 cm = 0.391 m$ . Since the speed of the wave is the speed of sound, $c=344 m/s$ , the frequency of the note is
$f= \frac{c}{\lambda}=879.8 Hz$

Then, we know that the frequency of a vibrating string is related to the tension T of the string and its length L by
$f= \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} }$
where $\mu=0.550 g/m = 0.550 \cdot 10^{-3} kg/m$ is the linear mass density of our string.
Using the value of the tension, T=160 N, and the frequency we just found, we can calculate the length of the string, L:
$L= \frac{1}{2f} \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} } =0.31 m$

As you learned in Part B, a non-burning helium core surrounded by a shell of hydrogen-burning gas characterizes the subgiant sta

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

E- The star becomes a red giant (LATEST STAGE)

F- The surface of the star becomes brighter and cooler

C- Pressure from the star's hydrogen-burning shell causes the non burning envelope to expand

A- The shell of hydrogen surrounding the star's nonburning helium core ignites.

D- The star's non burning helium core starts to contract and heat up

B- Pressure in the star's core decreases (EARLIEST STAGE)

(A star moves away from the main sequence once its core runs out of hydrogen to fuse into helium. The energy once supplied by hydrogen burning reduces and the core starts to compress under the force of gravity. This contraction allows the core and surrounding layers to heat up. Finally, the hydrogen shell around the core becomes hot enough to ignite hydrogen burning.

During the last shot of the game, the basketball goes from rest to 15 m/s and reaches the backboard in 0.41 s. What was the acce

Anna [14]

Answer: a= 37m

Explanation: V= 15 m/s (Velocity) t= 0.41s (time) formula: a= v/t

15 m/s / 0.41 (15 divided by 0.41) = 36.583m

There are 2 significant digits, 36, you look at the third digit, either round up or down in this case up to 36. a= 37m

It takes at least 4 people to push a refrigerator up a 10-meter ramp. How many people would be needed to push the same refrigera

vaieri [72.5K]

Double the amount of people because the ramp went from 10-meter to 20-meter, so times by 2. 4 times 2 is 8.
The answer is 8 people.
