Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

For a system of block on inclined ramp shown in the attached image. From the attached image, the Normal force N, weight mg and frictional force f act on the block.  The sum of vertical forces should be zero just as sum of vertical forces should be zero when the system is in equilibrium condition.

Taking sum of forces along the inclined plane we deduce that  

[tex]f=mgsin \theta [tex]

Therefore, option B is the correct option.

Beyond what point must an object be squeezed for it to become a black hole
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Condition

\frac{m}{R} \geq \frac{c^{2} }{2*g}

Explanation:

Basically black hole is an object from which light rays can not escape it means   to go out from gravitational field , that body should thrown with speed greater then light.

Let's do some calculation

Gravitational potential at surface =-\frac{G*M*m}{R}

If we give kinetic energy equal to magnitude of Potential energy as on surface it will escape.

\frac{m*v^{2} }{2} =-\frac{G*M*m}{R}

⇒\frac{m}{R} =\frac{c^{2} }{2*G}

It will be more better for black hole if above ratio (analogous to density ) is more then above calculated

Piano tuners tune pianos by listening to the beats between the harmonics of two different strings. When properly tuned, the note
Sophie [7]

(a) 2 Hz

The frequency of the nth-harmonic is given by

f_n = n f_1

where

f_1 is the fundamental frequency

Therefore, the frequency of the third harmonic of the A (f_1 = 440 Hz) is

f_3 = 3 \cdot f_1 = 3 \cdot 440 Hz =1320 Hz

while the frequency of the second harmonic of the E (f_1 = 659 Hz) is

f_2 = 2 \cdot f_1 = 2 \cdot 659 Hz =1318 Hz

So the frequency difference is

\Delta f = 1320 Hz - 1318 Hz = 2 Hz

(b) 2 Hz

The beat frequency between two harmonics of different frequencies f, f' is given by

f_B = |f'-f|

In this case, when the strings are properly tuned, we have

- Frequency of the 3rd harmonic of A-note: 1320 Hz

- Frequency of the 2nd harmonic of E-note: 1318 Hz

So, the beat frequency should be (if the strings are properly tuned)

f_B = |1320 Hz - 1318 Hz|=2 Hz

(c) 1324 Hz

The fundamental frequency on a string is proportional to the square root of the tension in the string:

f_1 \propto \sqrt{T}

this means that by tightening the string (increasing the tension), will increase the fundamental frequency also*, and therefore will increase also the frequency of the 2nd harmonic.

In this situation, the beat frequency is 4 Hz (four beats per second):

f_B = 4 Hz

And since the beat frequency is equal to the absolute value of the difference between the 3rd harmonic of the A-note and the 2nd harmonic of the E-note,

f_B = |f_3-f_2|

and f_3 = 1320 Hz, we have two possible solutions for f_2:

f_2 = f_3 - f_B = 1320 Hz - 4 Hz = 1316 Hz\\f_2 = f_3 + f_B = 1320 Hz + 4 Hz = 1324 Hz

However, we said that increasing the tension will increase also the frequency of the harmonics (*), therefore the correct frequency in this case will be

1324 Hz
