The label has been scratched off a tuning fork and you need to know its frequency. From its size, you suspect that it is somewhe

re around 250 Hz. You find a 250-Hz tuning fork and a 270-Hz tuning fork. When you strike the 250-Hz fork and the fork of unknown frequency, you hear a modulation (fluctuation of the amplitude) at a frequency of 5 Hz. When you strike the unknown with the 270-Hz fork, you hear a modulation at a frequency of 15 Hz. What is the unknown frequency

Answer:

255 Hz

Explanation:

With 5 beats per second with the 250 Hz fork, we know the unknown fork is either 250 - 5 = 245Hz or 250 + 5 = 255 Hz

With 15 beats per second with the 270 Hz fork, we know the unknown fork is either 270 - 15 = 255Hz or 270 + 15 = 285 Hz (most people would have a hard time discerning 15 beats per second... 5 per second is hard enough)

As 255 is the common frequency, it is the one selected.

An capacitor consists of two large parallel plates of area A separated by a very small distance d. This capacitor is connected t
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Will be doubled.

Explanation:

For a capacitor of parallel plates of area A, separated by a distance d, such that the charges in the plates are Q and -Q, the capacitance is written as:

C = \frac{Q}{V}  = e_0\frac{A}{d}

where e₀ is a constant, the electric permittivity.

Now we can isolate V, the potential difference between the plates as:

V = \frac{Q}{e_0} *\frac{d}{A}

Now, notice that the separation between the plates is in the numerator.

Thus, if we double the distance we will get a new potential difference V', such that:

V' = \frac{Q}{e_0} *\frac{2d}{A} = 2*( \frac{Q}{e_0} *\frac{d}{A}) = 2*V\\V' = 2*V

So, if we double the distance between the plates, the potential difference will also be doubled.

As the mass of object increased it is density increased
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

The density of an object is given by its mass divided by its volume. It can be given as follows :

d=\dfrac{m}{V}

It can be seen that the density of an object is directly proportional to its mass. It means if the mass of an object increase, its density will also increase. Hence, the given statement is true.

The charges on the proton and electron are typically measured in: Select the correct answer below: volts amperes coulombs dalton
malfutka [58]

Answer: columbs

Explanation:

Electrical charge are measured in columbs, usually demoted as C. Hence, the charges on proton and electron will be measured in Coloumbs. It typically measures the amount of electricity conveyed per second by a current of 1 ampere. The other units Given such as ; Volt is used for measuring voltage, which is the pressure in an electrical source. AMPERE is used for measuring the current flowing through an electrical circuit.

Dalton is a unit of mass and is about 1.660 * 10^-27 kg
