You hear a sound with a frequency of 256 Hz. The amplitude of the sound increases and decreases periodically: it takes 2 seconds

for the sound to go from loud to soft and back to loud. This sound can be thought of as a sum of two waves with frequencies:
(A) 256 Hz and 2 Hz.
(B) 254 Hz and 258 Hz.
(C) 255 Hz and 257 Hz.
(D) 255.5 Hz and 256.5 Hz.
(E) 255.75 Hz and 256.25 Hz.

To solve this problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to frequency and period, and how they are related to each other.

The relationship that defines both agreements is given by the equation,

f_{beat}=\frac{1}{T}

Then the frequency for the previous period given (2sec) is

f_{beat}=\frac{1}{2}

f_{beat} = 0.5Hz

The beat frequency of two frequencies is equal to the difference between the two frequencies, then

f_{beat} = |f_1-f_2|\\f_{beat} = |256Hz-2Hz|\\f_{beat} = 254Hz

<em>Hence option A is incorrect.</em>

We can do this process for 254Hz as f_1 and 258 Hz for f_2 , then

f_{beat} =|254Hz-258Hz|

f_{beat} = 4Hz

<em>Hence option B is incorrect. </em>

We can also do this process for 255Hz as  f_1 and 257 Hz for f_2 , then

f_{beat} =|255Hz-257Hz|

f_{beat} = 2Hz

<em>Hence option C is incorrect. </em>

We can also do this process for 255.5Hz as f_1 and 256.5 Hz for f_2, then

f_{beat} =|255.5Hz-256.5Hz|\\f_{beat} = 1Hz

<em>Hence option D is incorrect. </em>

We can also do this process for 255.75Hz as f_1 and 256.25 Hz for f_2, then

f_{beat} =|255.75Hz-256.25Hz|\\f_{beat} = 0.5Hz

<em>Hence option E is incorrect. </em>

Therefore the sum of the frequencies in the sound wave would be 256.25Hz and 255.75Hz

Describe two sources of earth's energy that are not produced
Anvisha [2.4K]
Here is the answer. Two sources of Earth's energy that are not produced would be Cosmic rays and Tidal Energy. Cosmic rays <span>are high-energy protons and atomic nuclei that come from outside the solar system. Whereas, tidal energy is the energy produced by both the moon (2/3) and the sun (1/3). Hope this answers your question.</span>

A simple pendulum consists of a mass m (the "bob") hanging on the end of a thin string of length l and negligible mass. The bob
svetlana [45]

Answer:

The pendulum frequency  is (c) the same, or very close to it

Explanation:

The simple pendulum corresponds to a simple harmonic movement, to reach this approximation in the expression of the force the sine of the angle (θ) approaches an angle value, this is only true for small angles, generally less than 15º

Sine (15th) = 0.2588

The angle in radians is 15º π / 180º = 0.26180.2588 / 0.2618

The difference between these two values ​​is less than 1.2%

for smaller angle the difference is reduced more

Therefore, the period for both the 5º and 10º angles is almost the same

How much heat Q H QH does a heat pump with a coefficient of performance of 2.10 2.10 deliver when supplied with 1.82 kJ 1.82 kJ
valina [46]

The operating coefficient or performance coefficient of a heat pump is the ratio between the heating or cooling provided and the electricity consumed. The higher coefficients are equivalent to lower operating costs. The coefficient can be greater than 1, because it is a percentage of the output: losses, other than the thermal efficiency ratio: input energy. Mathematically can be written as,

\text{Coefficient of performance} = \frac{\text{Heat extracted}}{\text{Electrical energy supplied}}

COP = \frac{Q}{E}\rightarrow Q =COP\times E

Replacing,

Q = 2.1\times 1.82kJ

Q = 3.822kJ

Therefore the heat is 3.822kJ

A ball is launched with initial speed v from ground level up a frictionless slope (This means the ball slides up the slope witho
amid [387]

Answer:

hmax = 1/2 · v²/g

Explanation:

Hi there!

Due to the conservation of energy and since there is no dissipative force (like friction) all the kinetic energy (KE) of the ball has to be converted into gravitational potential energy (PE) when the ball comes to stop.

KE = PE

Where KE is the initial kinetic energy and PE is the final potential energy.

The kinetic energy of the ball is calculated as follows:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

Where:

m = mass of the ball

v = velocity.

The potential energy is calculated as follows:

PE = m · g · h

Where:

m = mass of the ball.

g = acceleration due to gravity (known value: 9.81 m/s²).

h = height.

At  the maximum height, the potential energy is equal to the initial kinetic energy because the energy is conserved, i.e, all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy (there was no energy dissipation as heat because there was no friction). Then:

PE = KE

m · g · hmax = 1/2 · m · v²

Solving  for hmax:

hmax = 1/2 · v² / g
