Assume a change at the source of sound reduces the wavelength of a sound wave in air by a factor of 3.

noname [10]

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by :

$v=f\lambda$ ......(1)

(i) Here, the wavelength of a sound wave in air reduces by a factor of 3. Equation (1) becomes :

$\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}$

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional to each other. So, if wavelength of a sound wave in air reduces by a factor of 3, then the frequency will increases by a factor of 3.

(ii) It remains the same.

A 0.600 m long pendulum is used to determine the acceleration due to gravity on a distant plane. If 20 oscillations are complete

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

7.50 m/s^2

Explanation:

The period of a pendulum is given by:

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$ (1)

where

L = 0.600 m is the length of the pendulum

g = ? is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem, we can find the period T. In fact, the frequency is equal to the number of oscillations per second, so:

$f=\frac{N}{t}=\frac{20}{35.5 s}=0.563 Hz$

And the period is the reciprocal of the frequency:

$T=\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{0.563 Hz}=1.776 s$

And by using this into eq.(1), we can find the value of g:

$g=\frac{4 \pi^2 L}{T^2}=\frac{4 \pi^2 (0.600 m)}{(1.776 s)^2}=7.50 m/s^2$

Salt is now added to the water in the bucket, increasing the density of the liquid. what happens to the tension in the string ?

AlexFokin [52]

The question involves a ping-pong ball that is held submerged in a bucket by a string attached to the bottom of the bucket.

The answer is the tension of the string will increase. This is because making the water salty increases its density, and consequently, increases its buoyancy. This is why sea water is more buoyant than fresh water. Therefore the ping pong is pushed more upwards by the water when salt is added than initially. This gives the string more tension.
