Two students, Student 1 and Student 2, did a hands-on mining exercise with cookies to compare the total cost of mining in two di

fferent land areas using different equipment. The table below shows the costs of land, equipment, mining, and reclamation for the two students.

Assume cost of equipment for student 2 is m.

We are given that:
Total mining cost for student 1 and student 2 is $40

For student 1:
We are given that:
Cost of land = $5
Cost of equipment = $2
Cost of mining and reclamation = $2 per minute
Time taken to mine = 5 minutes
Therefore,
Total mining cost for student 1= land + equipment
                                                  + cost of mining (time needed)
Total mining cost for student 1 = 2 + 5 + 2(5) = 7 + 10 = $17

This means that:
Total mining cost for student 2 = 40 - 17 = $23

For student 2:
We are given that:
Cost of land = $4
Cost of equipment = m
Cost of mining and reclamation = $2 per minute
Time taken to mine = 6 minutes
Total mining cost for student 2= $23
Therefore,
Total mining cost for student 2= land + equipment
                                                  + cost of mining (time needed)
23 = 4 + m + 2(6)
23 = 4 + m + 12
23 = 16 + m
m = 23 - 16
m = $7

Based on the above calculations, the correct choice would be:
c. $7

If the frequency of the motion of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what factor does the maximum speed of the oscillat
Mamont248 [21]

<h2>The option ( c ) is correct </h2>

Explanation:

As the frequency of oscillation of any oscillator is doubled

The velocity of sound  v = νλ

here ν is the frequency and λ is the wavelength

Now if ν becomes double , the wavelength λ becomes one half . The velocity of sound remains the same in the same medium .

Thus option ( c ) is correct

A trumpet player is tuning his instrument by playing an A note simultaneously with the first-chair trumpeter, who has perfect pi
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

The two possible frequencies of the other player's note are  437.3 Hz and 442.7 Hz

Explanation:

Given Data

f₁=440 Hz

fₐ=2.7 beats per seconds

The beat frequency is equal to the difference in the frequencies of the two original waves:

So

f =|(f₁±fₐ)|

First to Solve for (-) Sign we get

f=|(440-2.7)|

f=437.3 Hz

Now for Solve for (+) Sign we get

f=|(440+2.7)|

f=442.7 Hz

The two possible frequencies of the other player's note are  437.3 Hz and 442.7 Hz
