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 is the mass of a stone moving at a speed of 15 meters/second and having a momentum of 7.5 kilogram - meters / seconds
Elanso [62]

Answer:

0.5 kg

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is defined as

p = mv

where

m is the mass

v is the velocity

In this problem we have,

v = 15 m/s is the velocity of the stone

p = 7.5 kg m/s is the momentum

Solving for m, we can find the mass of the stone:

m=\frac{p}{v}=\frac{7.5 kg m/s}{15 m/s}=0.5 kg

Acceleration of gravity on jupiter
Viefleur [7K]

The acceleration of gravity on Jupiter is listed as  <em>24.79 m/s²</em> .

That's roughly  2.53  times its value on Earth.  So if you weigh, let's say,
130 pounds on Earth, then you would weigh about 328 pounds on Jupiter.
