Two cello strings, with the same tension and length, are played simultaneously. Their fundamental frequencies produce audible be

ats with a frequency of 8 Hz. The string with the lower pitch (frequency) is tuned to an “A” (a frequency of 220 Hz). What is the approximate ratio of the linear mass density μ of the string with the higher pitch to that of the string with the lower pitch?

Explanation:

Let f₁ is the fundamental frequency, f_1=8\ Hz

Lower pitch frequency, f_2=220\ Hz

Fundamental frequency is, f_1=\dfrac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_1}}.....(1)

Lower frequency is, f_2=\dfrac{1}{2L}\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu_2}}..............(2)

Dividing equation (1) and (2) as :

\dfrac{f_1}{f_2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\mu_2}{\mu_1}}

\dfrac{\mu_2}{\mu_1}=(\dfrac{f_1}{f_2})^2

\dfrac{\mu_2}{\mu_1}=(\dfrac{8}{220})^2

\dfrac{\mu_2}{\mu_1}=0.00132

So, the ratio of  linear mass density μ of the string with the higher pitch to that of the string with the lower pitch is 0.00132. Hence, this is the required solution.

A laser beam is incident on two slits with a separation of 0.195 mm, and a screen is placed 5.30 m from the slits. If the bright
kumpel [21]

Answer:

λ = 596 nm.

Explanation:

Fringe width = λ D / d

λ is wave length , D is screen distance and d is slit separation.

Putting the values

1.62 x 10⁻² =(  λ x 5.3 ) / .195 x 10⁻³

\lambda=\frac{1.62\times10^{-2}\times195\times10^{-6}}{5.3}

λ = 596 nm.

Which state or states of matter take(s) the shape of its container? A) gas B) solid C) liquid D) liquid and gas
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

D) liquid and gas

Explanation:

The three main states of matter are:

- Solid: in solids, the molecules are bond together by strong intermolecular forces, so the molecules are not free to move. Therefore, a solid has a definite shape, so it does not take the shape of its container.

- Liquid: in liquids, molecules are not bond together, so they are free to move (still, there are some weak intermolecular forces which keep them close to each other). Since in liquids molecules can slide past each other, they take the shape of the container.

- Gas: in gases, molecules are totally free to move, so gases take the shape (and also the volume) of the container.

Based on the definitions above, we can conclude that the correct answer is

D) liquid and gas

A 2.4 kg block is dropped onto a spring and platform of negligible mass. The block is released
statuscvo [17]

The speed of the block when the compression is 15 cm is 9.85 m/s.

The given parameters;

  • <em>mass of the block, m = 2.4 kg</em>
  • <em>height of the block, h =  5 m</em>
  • <em>compression of the spring, x = 25 cm = 0.25 m</em>

The spring constant is calculated as follows;

F = kx\\\\mg = kx\\\\k = \frac{mg}{x} \\\\k = \frac{2.4 \times 9.8}{0.25} \\\\k = 94.08 \ N/m

The speed of the block when the compression is 15 cm can be determined by applying the principle of conservation of energy;

\Delta K.E = \Delta P.E\\\\\frac{1}{2} m(v^2  - v_{0 }^2 ) = mgh - \frac{1}{2} kx^2\\\\\frac{1}{2} mv^2  = mgh -   \frac{1}{2} kx^2\\\\mv^2   = 2mgh - kx^2\\\\v^2 = \frac{2mgh - kx^2}{m} \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{2mgh - kx^2}{m}} \\\\v = \sqrt{\frac{(2 \times 2.4 \times 9.8 \times 5) - (94.08 \times 0.15^2)}{2.4}} \\\\v = 9.85 \ m/s

Thus, the speed of the block when the compression is 15 cm is 9.85 m/s.

(a) Calculate the linear acceleration of a car, the 0.220-m radius tires of which have an angular acceleration of 11.0 rad/s2. A
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The value is  a_t =  2.42 \  m/s^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The radius of the tires is  r =  0.22 \  m

   The  angular acceleration is  \alpha  =  11.0 \ rad/s^2

Generally the linear acceleration is mathematically represented as

     a_t =  r *  \alpha

=>  a_t =  0.22  *  11

=>  a_t =  2.42 \  m/s^2
