Answer:

The  length is  l  =  8.6 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The frequencies of the two successive harmonics are f_1 =  220 \ Hz ,  f_2  =  240 \  Hz

   The speed of sound in the air is  v_s  =  343 \  m/s

Generally the frequency of a given harmonic is mathematically represented as

     f_n  =  \frac{n  v  }{2l}

Here  n defines  the position of the harmonics

Now since the position of both harmonic is not know but we know that they successive then we can represented them mathematically as

    220  =  \frac{n v}{2l}

and  

     240  =  \frac{(n+1) v}{2l}

So

   \frac{(n + 1 ) v}{2l} - \frac{n v}{2l}  =  240-220

=>  \frac{v}{2l}  =  20

=>   l  =  8.6 \  m

Lexy throws a dart with an initial velocity of 25 m/s at an angle of 60° relative to the ground. what is the approximate vertica
Serjik [45]
An initial velocity is:
v o = 25 m/s
The vertical component of the initial velocity:
v o y = v o * sin 60° =
= v o * √3 / 2 = 25 m/s * √3 / 2 = 21.65 m/s
Answer:
The approximate vertical component of the initial velocity is 21.65 m/s.

You could use an elevator or the stairs to lift a box to tenth floor.which has greater power?
erastova [34]

Stairs don't have any power at all.  All the energy used to climb them
has to come from your muscles.

An elevator gets its power from the electric motors that lift it.  All YOU
have to do is stand there and look around.

All of this is a big part of the reason why elevators have become so
popular, and why no buildings with more than a few floors were built
before elevators were invented.

driving down the highway , you find yourself behind a heavily loaded tomato truck. you follow close behind the truck keeping the
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The tomato won't hit the car

Explanation:

According to the statement, the car moves at constant speed behind the truck fully loaded with tomatoes, and in the same direction. When a tomato falls from the top of the truck, it should not hit the car as the tomato falls due to the force of gravity, while horizontally has the same speed and in the same direction as the truck.  So we assume that the tomato will fall to the road without touching the car.

Have a nice day!
