If the fundamental frequency of a musical instrument is 42Hz, what is the frequency of the second harmonic?

timurjin [86]3 years ago

For the majority of instruments f = n f0 where f is the resonating frequency, n is any whole number and f0 is the fundamental. 
<span>This applies to trumpets, violins, flutes and a broad range. </span>
<span>In such a </span>case<span> the first harmonic would be at n=1 and the second harmonic would be at n=2 </span>

<span>which gives a frequency of 84 Hz</span>

The air that flows over the top part of an airplane's wing moves faster than the air that flows across the bottom. This faster m
kaheart [24]
As an airplane moves through the air, its wings cause changes in the speed and pressure of the air moving past them. These changes result in the upward force called lift.

The Bernoulli principle states that an increase in the speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in the pressure exerted by the fluid.

A wing is shaped and tilted so the air moving over it moves faster than the air moving under it. As air speeds up, its pressure goes down. So the faster-moving air above exerts less pressure on the wing than the slower-moving air below. The result is an upward push on the wing—lift!

You are standing 30 m from a window that is 30 m off the ground. Your friend tries to toss you something, but only throws it str
pochemuha

Answer:

minimum initial velocity is 21.35 m/s

Explanation:

given data

distance S = 30 m

height h = 30 m

maximum acceleration a = 2 m/s²

to find out

minimum initial velocity that your friend could have thrown the object to enable you to catch

solution

first we get here time with the help of second equation of motion

time = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{a} }  ..................1

put her value we get

time = \sqrt{\frac{2*30}{2} }

time = 5.477 second

and that is time which tossed object must be take so we apply here again second equation of motion that is

-S = ut - 0.5 × gt²   .......................2

-30 = u× 5.477 - 0.5 ×9.8×5.477²

solve it we get

u = 21.35 m/s

so minimum initial velocity is 21.35 m/s

Why do planets not travel in a straight path?
Elis [28]

Answer:

Because the gravitational attraction of the Sun hold them in motion around it

Explanation:

For an object travelling in a straight path at constant velocity, the net force acting on the object must be zero.

The planets in the Solar System, however, do not experience a zero net force: in fact, the Sun exerts a gravitational attraction on them, whose magnitude is given by

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the Sun

m is the mass of the planet

r is the average distance between the Sun and the planet

Due to the presence of this force, the Sun makes the planets 'deviating' from their straight path, forcing them to following an elliptical path around the Sun.

Water having a density of 1000 kg/m^3 is flowing with a velocity of 3 m/s through a round pipe. There is a restriction within th
Fofino [41]

Answer:

12 m/s

Explanation:

Using the continuity equation, which is an extension of the conservation of mass law

ρ₁A₁v₁ = ρ₂A₂v₂

where 1 and 2 indicate the conditions at two different points of flow, in this case, point 1 is any normal position in the pip and point 2 is the conditions at the restriction.

ρ = density of the fluid flowing; note that the density of the fluid flowing (water) is constant all through the fluid's flow

A₁ = Cross sectional Area of the pipe at point 1 = (πD₁²/4)

A₂ = Cross sectional Area of the pipe at the restriction = (πD₂²/4)

v₁ = velocity of the fluid flowing at point 1 = 3 m/s

v₂ = velocity of the fluid flowing at The restriction = ?

ρ₁A₁v₁ = ρ₂A₂v₂

Becomes

A₁v₁ = A₂v₂ (since ρ₁ = ρ₂)

(πD₁²/4) × 3 = (πD₂²/4) × v₂

3D₁² = D₂² × v₂

But

D₂ = (D₁/2)

And D₂² = (D₁²/4)

3D₁² = D₂² × v₂

3D₁² = (D₁²/4) × v₂

(D₁²/4) × v₂ = 3D₁²

v₂ = 4×3 = 12 m/s

Two long parallel wires separated by 4.0 mm each carry a current of 24 A. These two currents are in the same direction. What is
lesya [120]

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnetic field at a a point R distance away

B = μ₀ / 4π X 2I / R where I is current

Magnetic field due to one current

=  10⁻⁷ x 2 x 24 / 1 x 10⁻³

48 x 10⁻⁴ T

Magnetic field due to other current

=  10⁻⁷ x 2 x 24 / 3x 10⁻³

16 x 10⁻⁴ T

Total magnetic field , as they act in opposite direction, is

= (48 - 16 ) x 10⁻⁴

32 x 10⁻⁴ T .
