You and a friend frequently play a trombone duet in a jazz band. During such performances it is critical that the two instrument

s be perfectly tuned. Since you take better care of your trombone, you decide to use your instrument as the standard. When you produce a tone that is known to be 470 Hz and your friend attempts to play the same note, you hear 4 beats every 3.00 seconds. Your ear is good enough to detect that your trombone is at a higher frequency. Determine the frequency of your friend's trombone. (Enter your answer to at least 1 decimal place.)

Answer:

f₂ = 468.67 Hz

Explanation:

A beat is a sudden increase and decrease of sound. The beats are produced through the interference of two sound waves of slightly different frequencies. Now we have the following data:

The higher frequency tone = f₁ = 470 Hz

No. of beats = n = 4 beats

Time period = t = 3 s

The lower frequency note = Frequency of Friend's Trombone = f₂ = ?

Beat Frequency = fb

So, the formula for beats per second or beat frequency is given as:

fb = n/t

fb = 4 beats/ 3 s

fb = 1.33 Hz

Another formula for beat frequency is:

fb = f₁ - f₂

f₂ =  f₁ - fb

f₂ = 470 Hz - 1.33 Hz

<u>f₂ = 468.67 Hz</u>

Motion is
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

a change of position in relation to another object.

Explanation:

Motion can be defined as a change in the location (position) of a physical object or body with respect to a reference point.

This ultimately implies that, motion would occur as a result of a change in location (position) of an object with respect to a reference point or frame of reference i.e where it was standing before the effect of an external force.

A reference point refers to a location or physical object from which the motion (movement) of another physical object or body can be determined.

Mathematically, the motion of an object is described in terms of acceleration, time, distance, speed, velocity, displacement, position, etc.

Hence, motion is a change of position in relation to another object.

What does a tachometer measure?
nlexa [21]
A tachometer measures, for example it measures the MPH(Miles Per Hour) in a car.  So like it measures your speed, so you could be going 100 MPH.

Calculate the energy needed to heat 4 kg of water from 25°C to 45°C.
inna [77]
(1 cal/g °C) x (4000 g) x (45 - 25)°C = 80000 cal = 80 kcal. So the answer is 80 kcal .

What invisible force will cause you to fall to the earth if you fall off your bed?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The answer to this is falling all the way through the Earth is impossible, since its core is molten. ... As you approached the center of the earth the pull of gravity would decline and eventually (at the center) cease, but inertia would keep you going.

An iron nail is driven into a block of ice by a single blow of a hammer. The hammerhead has a mass of 0.5 kg and an initial spee
larisa [96]

Answer:

The ice melts mass is:

m_g=7.6x10^{-3} g

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy  

K_E = 1/2*m*v^2

K_E = 1/2*0.5kg*(3.2m/s)^2

K_E=2.56 kg*m^2/s^2

Heat gained by ice= mass(g) x 80 cal

( 1 cal = 4.184 *10^7er or g cm^2/ sec^2)

Assuming no loss in heat,  in the motion so both continue with temperature 0~C

To find so the mass (gm) of ice melted

m_g= 1/2 *(0.5*1000)*(3.2m/s)^2* 100*100 / (80*4.184*10^7)

m_g=7.6x10^{-3} g
