A note is being played on a string on a guitar. The string is then pushed to the side while still in contact with the same fret.
Brut [27]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

- When the string is pressed on a particular fret, the note is the same. That's because the string will sound from bridge to that fret-wire. It's always the same distance, so will always be the same note.

- Frets is that it splits the fingerboard into discrete diatonic parts, and well made fret-boards will mean the same note gets played on the same fret on the same string every time.

You are making a telephone out of two aluminum cans and some string. You can choose between two types of string: a 2-m length of
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

C)You should use the thin cooking twine.

Explanation:

A)You can choose either because they are the same length and will produce the same wave speed.

B)You should use the heavy rope.

C)You should use the thin cooking twine.

The speed of wave in a string is given by the following formula:

|v| = \sqrt{\frac{F_T}{u} }

Where |v| = speed of wave, F_T = tension in the string, and μ = mass per length of the string.

<em>Even though the two strings have the same length, the μ (mass/length) for the heavy rope will be more than the that of a thin rope. Consequently, the </em>F_T<em>:μ for the thin rope will be higher than that of the heavy rope and as such, gives a bigger |</em>v<em>|. </em>

Therefore, the thin rope should be used in order to get a faster wave speed in the telephone.

The correct option is C.

A massless rod of length L has a small mass m fastened at its center and another mass m fastened at one end. On the opposite end
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

onservation of energy

U top = K bottom

(m + m)*g*L = 1/2*I*?^2 where I = m*(L/2)^2 + m*L^2 = 1.25*m*L^2

So 2m*g*L = 1/2*1.25*m*L^2*?^2

So ? = sqrt(3*g*/(1.25*L) ) = sqrt(12g/5L)

Near the surface of Earth an electric field points radially downward and has a magnitude of approximately 100 N/C. What charge (
pentagon [3]

Answer:

q=2.997\times 10^{-4}C

Sign-Negative

Explanation:

We are given that

Electric field =E=100NC^{-1} (Radially downward)

Acceleration=0.19 ms^{-2}(Upward)

Mass of charge=3 g=3\times 10^{-3}kg

1kg=1000g

We have to find the magnitude and sign of  charge would have to be placed on a penny .

By newton's second law

\sum F_y=ma

\sum F_y=qE-mg

Substitute the values then we get

qE-mg=ma

Substitute the values then we get

q(100)-3\times 10^{-3}(9.8)=3\times 10^{-3}(0.19)

100q-29.4\times 10^{-3}=0.57\times 10^{-3}

100q=0.57\times 10^{-3}+29.4\times 10^{-3}=29.97\times 10^{-3}

q=\frac{29.97\times 10^{-3}}{100}

q=2.997\times 10^{-4}C

Sign of charge =Negative

Because electric force acting  in opposite direction of electric field therefore,charge on penny will be negative.

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST IF SOMEONE GETS THIS......
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Explanation:

a)

Firstly to calculate the total mass of the can before the metal was lowered we need to add the mass of the eureka can and the mass of the water in the can. We don't know the mass of the water but we can easily find if we know the volume of the can. In order to calculate the volume we would have to multiply the area of the cross section by the height. So we do the following.

100cm^{2} x 10cm = 1000cm^{3}

Now in order to find the mass that water has in this case we have to multiply the water's density by the volume, and so we get....

\frac{1g}{cm^{3} } x 1000cm^{3} = 1000g or 1kg

Knowing this, we now can calculate the total mass of the can before the metal was lowered, by adding the mass of the water to the mass of the can. So we get....

1000g + 100g = 1100g or 1.1kg

b)

The volume of the water that over flowed will be equal to the volume of the metal piece (since when we add the metal piece, the metal piece will force out the same volume of water as itself, to understand this more deeply you can read the about "Archimedes principle"). Knowing this we just have to calculate the volume of the metal piece an that will be the answer. So this time in order to find volume we will have to divide the total mass of the metal piece by its density. So we get....

20g ÷ \frac{8g}{cm^{3} } = 2.5 cm^{3}

c)

Now to find out the total mass of the can after the metal piece was lowered we would have to add the mass of the can itself, mass of the water inside the can, and the mass of the metal piece. We know the mass of the can, and the metal piece but we don't know the mass of the water because when we lowered the metal piece some of the water overflowed, and as a result the mass of the water changed. So now we just have to find the mass of the water in the can keeping in mind the fact that 2.5cm^{3} overflowed. So now we the same process as in number a) just with a few adjustments.

\frac{1g}{cm^{3} } x (1000cm^{3} - 2.5cm^{3}) = 997.5g

So now that we know the mass of the water in the can after we added the metal piece we can add all the three masses together (the mass of the can. the mass of the water, and the mass of the metal piece) and get the answer.

100g + 997.5g + 20g = 1117.5g or 1.1175kg
