Answer:

n ∝ (1/l) (√F/m)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since frequency, n of vibration of a stretched string is a function of its tension F, the length l and the mass per unit length m, and has dimensions [T]⁻¹ where T = time, its dimension must be equal to that of the combination of F, L and m

Since n = f(F,L,m)

n = kFᵃLᵇmˣ

dimension of n = (dimension of F)ᵃ × (dimension of L)ᵇ × (dimension of m)ˣ

Since n = frequency, dimension of n = [T]⁻¹

F = Force, dimension of F = [M][L][T]⁻²

Also, L = length, dimension of L = [L] and

m = mass per unit length, dimension of m = [M][L]⁻¹

So, n = FᵃLᵇmˣ

[T]⁻¹  = ([M][L][T]⁻²)ᵃ( [L] )ᵇ([M][L]⁻¹)ˣ

[T]⁻¹  = ([M]ᵃ[L]ᵃ[T]⁻²ᵃ[L]ᵇ([M]ˣ[L]⁻ˣ

[M]⁰[L]⁰[T]⁻¹  = ([M]ᵃ ⁺ˣ)([L]ᵃ ⁺ ᵇ ⁻ˣ)([T]⁻²ᵃ)

equating the exponents on both sides, we have

a + x = 0  (1 )⇒ x = -a

a + b - x = 0 (2) ⇒

-2a = -1 (3) ⇒ a = 1/2

Substituting x into 2, we have

a + b -(-a) = 0

a + b + a = 0

2a + b = 0

b = -2a

b = -2 (1/2)

b = -1

x = -a = -1/2

So, substituting the variables into n, we have

n = kFᵃLᵇmˣ

n = kFᵃLᵇmˣ

n = kF^{\frac{1}{2} }L^{-1}m^{-\frac{1}{2} }

n = k/l(√F/m)

n ∝ (1/l) (√F/m)

Which graph represents the equation 12 = 32 + 4y? Explain how you know.
sergeinik [125]
What graph?
BTW the answer to that equation is: x=5
12=32+4y
12-12= 0 (cancels out)
32-12= 20
20 divided by 4= 5
Therefore, x=5

A sample of 13 sheets of cardstock is randomly selected and the following thicknesses are measured in millimeters. Give a point
valina [46]
<h3>Answer:  0.061</h3>

===============================================

Explanation:

Add up the values to get

1.96+1.81+1.97+1.83+1.87+1.84+1.85+1.94+1.96+1.81+1.86+1.95+1.89= 24.54

Then divide over 13 (the number of values) to get 24.54/13 = 1.8876923 which is approximate.

So the mean is approximately 1.8876923

---------------------

Now make a spreadsheet as shown below

We have the first column as the x values, which are the original numbers your teacher provided. The second column is of the form (x-M)^2, where M is the mean we computed earlier. We subtract off the mean and square the result.

After we compute that column of (x-M)^2 values, we add them up to get what is shown in the highlighted yellow cell at the bottom of the column.

That sum is approximately 0.04403076924

Next, we divide that over n-1 = 13-1 = 12

0.04403076924 /12 = 0.00366923077

That is the sample variance. Apply the square root to this to get the sample standard deviation. This is the point estimate of the population standard deviation. As the name implies, it works for samples that estimate population parameters.

sqrt(0.00366923077) = 0.06057417576822

This rounds to 0.061 which is the final answer.
