In this experiment, three different tuning forks were used. If we assume that a percent error of 5% is acceptable in determining

the speed of sound, what can we conclude about the speed of sound depend on the frequency of the tuning fork?

In the experiment, you had three tuning forks of frequency:
f₁ = 512 Hz, f₂ = 480 Hz and f₃ = 426 Hz.

Through the experiment you were able to calculate the speed of sound, finding:
v₁ = 340 m/s, v₂ = 342 m/s and v₃ = 341 m/s.

The difference in these measurements is within the 5% error, therefore you can infer that the speed of sound is independent of the frequency of the tuning forks.

What distance does light travel in water, glass, and diamond during the time that it travels 1.0 m in vacuum? the refractive ind
alexdok [17]
We are given with
distance traveled through vacuum = 1.0 m
refractive index of water = 1.33
refractive index of glass = 1.50
refractive index of diamond = 2.42

distance traveled through water is = 1.0/1.33 = 0.75 m
distance traveled through water is = 1.0/1.50 = 0.67 m
distance traveled through water is = 1.0/2.42 = 0.41 m

. What is the relationship between potential energy, kinetic energy, and speed as the skater moves down and up the U-shaped ramp
kykrilka [37]
Top of the U ramp: potential energy is the highest, while kinetic energy is the lowest

Bottom of the U ramp(aka the curve part): potential energy is the lowest and the kinetic energy is the highest

THEREFORE, PE and KE have an INVERSE RELATIONSHIP.
