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.

A dog walks 12 meters to the east and then 16 meters back to the west for this motion what is the distance moved What is the mag
FinnZ [79.3K]

The distance is 28 meters, and the displacement is -4.

For the distance it would be 12 + 16 = 28.

For the displacement it would be 12 - 16 = -4.

would really appreciate a brainliest! Hope this helped!

A vehicle travelling at an initial velocity of 20km/hr,accelerates at 4m/s².calculate its final velocity after 10 seconds.​
Nikitich [7]

acceleration = Velocity changes ÷ time of the velocity changes

4 m/s^2 =

4 × 10^(-3) × 3600 km / h =

4 × 3.6 =

14.4 km / h

Thus :

14.4 = V(2) - V(1) / t(2) - t(1)

14.4 = V(2) - 20 / 10

Multiply both sides by 10

10 × 14.4 = 10 × ( V(2) - 20 ) / 10

144 = V(2) - 20

Add both sides 20

144 + 20 = V(2) - 20 + 20

V(2) = 164 Km/h

Thus the final velocity after 10 seconds is 164 Km/h .
