Any change in the cross section of the vocal tract shifts the individual formant frequencies, the direction of the shift dependi

ng on just where the change in area falls along the standing wave. Constriction of the vocal tract at a place where the standing wave of a formant exhibits minimum-amplitude pressure oscillations generally causes the formant to drop in frequency; expansion of the tract at those same places raises the frequency. Three other major tools for changing the shape of the tract in such a way that the frequency of a particular formant is shifted in a particular direction are the jaw, the body of the tongue and the tip of the tongue. Moving the various articulatory organs in different ways changes the frequencies of the two lowest formants over a considerable range [18].
One way to increase formant frequency is to ________ the vocal tract at a place where the standing wave of a formant frequency exhibits minimum-amplitude pressure oscillations.

a. Stretch
b. Vibrate
c. Contract
d. Expand

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

It is stated in the question that constriction of the vocal tract at a place where the standing wave of a formant exhibits minimum-amplitude pressure oscillations generally causes the formant to drop in frequency so to increase formant frequency, the vocal should expand where the standing wave of a formant exhibits minimum-amplitude pressure oscillations. The answer is D.

I hope this helps.

Air enters into the hollow propeller tube at A with a mass flow of 4 kg/s and exits at the ends B and C with a velocity of 400 m
mash [69]

Answer:

643N.m

Explanation:

From this question we have:

Mass flow = 4kg/s

Velocity V = 400m/s

Rotation N = 1500rev/min

We get the relative velocity at exit to be:

V2 = V - r2w

400-0.5x [(2*π*1500)/60]

= 400-78.5

= 321.5m/s

Then we have to calculate the frictional torque My

Mt = Mr2 x V2

= 4x0.5x321.5

= 643Nm

From the calculations above, we get the frictional torque M on the tube to be 643Nm.

I think this is the best way to explain it
light from the sun takes 8 minutes and 20 seconds to travel to Earth. So it would be the same if the Earth's light to travel to the sun. The sun is described to be a star.

In the following free body diagram, what is the net force on the object?
frozen [14]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Simply take all forces pointing to the right of the box as positive and all of the forces pointing to the left of the box as negative and add all values.

ΣF = 7 + 18 + (-20) = 5N to the right

the average time required for radioactive elements, whereby they decay to half their original mass is called the "average life"
VikaD [51]
I'm not sure what your question is. But, the half life is the amount of time required for half the material to decay. For U238 this is 4.5 billion years, whilst for Fr-223 (Francium) its about 22 minutes. To calculate the time for something to decay you need to use the equation:
Mass (after time t) = Mass (initial) * (0.5)^(time/half life)
Hope this helps
