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>

Help me please :(((((((
Dimas [21]

Answer: A.

Explanation: Roughly 180 - 200 million years ago, just before the first dinosaurs evolved. Mammals themselves evolved from a group or reptiles which exhibited mammal-like traits. One of them was specialized teeth. Reptiles tend to have teeth all the same shape. The mammal-like reptiles evolved tiny teeth in front of the jaw and two pairs of over sized fangs along the the sides. Like modern mammals, the head was large in proportion to the rest of the body. The jaws were also evolving another mammal trait, the ability to move sideways. Despite the lack of specialized teeth, acute hearing and the ability to chew, the dinosaurs evolved an adaptation which made them far more successful than mammals--modified leg bones. These limbs could be articulated directly under their bodies. This enabled the legs to support more weight, since the limbs were now under the body instead of at the sides. Then dinosaurs did something which secured their dominance for the next 120 million years - they began to stand on two legs. Although the back was still parallel to the ground, running on two legs greatly increased the dinosaur's speed. Mammals could simply not compete with swift, giant predators and were forced to remain small, and most became nocturnal to evade dinosaurs which were probably active during the day. Despite that they managed to survive which allowed the further evolution of mammals into us, humans.

A fast-food restaurant uses a conveyor belt to send the burgers through a grilling machine. if the grilling machine is 1.2 m lon
Vinil7 [7]

length of the grilling machine is 1.2 m

time taken to cook the burger is 2.7 min = 162 s

so the speed of the machine should be like this that if must have to cook till it cross the machine

v = \frac{d}{t}

v = \frac{1.2}{162}

v = 7.41* 10^{-3} m/s

now in one minute the total length of the machine that is covered is given by

L = v*t

L = 7.41*10^{-3}* 60 = 44.4 cm

now distance between the burgers is 15 cm

so total production rate will be

N = \frac{44.4}{15} = 3 burger/min

so it will produce 3 burger per minute
