What does frequency mean in science

Physics

matrenka [14]3 years ago

There's nothing mysterious about it at all. "Frequency" simply means
"often-ness" ... how often or how frequently something happens.

-- The frequency of traditional meals is 3 per day.
-- The frequency of an equinox is 2 per year.
-- The frequency of my sleeping really late is 1 per week.
-- The frequency of my intense desire to sleep late is 30 per month.
etc.

-- The standard unit of frequency in the SI system is "per second".
The special name for that unit is "Hertz".  (Hz)

How much power is needed to lift a 20-kg object to a height of 4.0 m in 2.5 seconds?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

313.92w

Explanation:

Formula for power:

P=W/∆t = Fv

Givens:

m=20kg

∆y=4.0m

∆t=2.5s

a=9.81m/s²

In order to find power, we first need to solve for work.

W=Fd (force*displacement), f=mg

W=mg∆y

W=(20kg)(9.81m/s²)(4.0m)

W=784.8J

P=W/∆t

P=784.8J/2.5s

P=313.92 watts

The frequency of the second harmonic of a certain musical instrument is 100 Hz. What is the fundamental frequency of the instrum
ruslelena [56]
The harmonic frequency of a musical instrument is the minimum frequency at which a string that is fixed at both ends in the instrument may vibrate. The harmonic frequency is known as the first harmonic. Each subsequent harmonic has a frequency equal to:
n*f, where n is the number of the harmonic and f is the harmonic frequency. Therefore, the harmonic frequency may be calculated using:
f = 100 / 2
f = 50 Hz

A copper rod of cross-sectional area 11.6 cm2 has one end immersed in boiling water and the other in an ice-water mixture, which
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

0.686 g of ice melts each second.

Solution:

As per the question:

Cross-sectional Area of the Copper Rod, A = 11.6\ cm^{2} = 11.6\times 10^{- 4}\ m^{2}

Length of the rod, L = 19.6 cm = 0.196 m

Thermal conductivity of Copper, K = 390\ W/m.^{\circ}C

Conduction of heat from the rod per second is given by:

q = \frac{KA\Delta T}{L}

where

\Delta T = 100^{\circ} - 0^{\circ} = 100^{\circ}C = temperature difference between the two ends of the rod.

Thus

q = \frac{390\times 11.6\times 10^{- 4}\times 100}{0.196} = 228.48\ J/s

Now,

To calculate the mass, M of the ice melted per sec:

M = \frac{q}{L_{w}}

where

L_{w} = Latent heat of fusion of water = 333 kJ/kg

M = \frac{228.48}{333\times 10^{3}} = 6.86\times 10^{- 4}\ kg = 0.686\ g
