The physics of wind instruments is based on the concept of standing waves. When the player blows into the mouthpiece, the column

of air inside the instrument vibrates, and standing waves are produced. Although the acoustics of wind instruments is complicated, a simple description in terms of open and closed tubes can help in understanding the physical phenomena related to these instruments. For example, a flute can be described as an open-open pipe because a flutist covers the mouthpiece of the flute only partially. Meanwhile, a clarinet can be described as an open-closed pipe because the mouthpiece of the clarinet is almost completely closed by the reed.
A. Consider a pipe of length 80.0 cm open at both ends. What is the lowest frequency f of the sound wave produced when you blow into the pipe?
B. A hole is now drilled through the side of the pipe and air is blown again into the pipe through the same opening. The fundamental frequency of the sound wave generated in the pipe is now_________ .
a. the same as before
b. lower than before
c. higher than before

Answer:

1. 214.38hz

2. higher than before.

Explanation:

1. the lowest frequency f of the sound wave produced

f = v/2L

l = 80cm = 0.8m

v = 343 metre per second, this is the sound speed of air

f = 343/2*0.8

the lowest frequency = 214.38hz

2. Since there is ahle n the pipe, this would shorten the length of air column that is able to oscillate in this pipe. we use the same formula as we used in question 1 here.

Vf ∝1/L

so we conclude that, c. it is higher than before

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In 2019 was taken the first image of a supermassive black hole in the center of the galaxy M87 with the Event Horizon Telescope, which is a network of radio telescope located in different points of the Earth, with the purpose of making a telescope of the size of the Earth.

A radio telescope is an antenna that is capable to perceive the light in the radio part of the electromagnetic spectrum¹.

It is important to notice that in the picture what it can be seen is the effect that the black hole has in the nearby stars.

Key terms:

¹Electromagnetic spectrum: decomposition of light in its different wavelengths (from radio waves to gamma rays).

Given a block of glass that is semi-circular, a laser pointer, protractor/ruler, and index card, design your own experiment to o
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

we go up the ramp there is a point where the beam is reflected inside the block, we carefully step back to the point where the beam is horizontal, we measure this angle which is our critical angle.

Explanation:

To design the experiment of measuring the critical angle, we describe the phenomenon, when the light passes from a medium with a higher refractive index to one with a lower index, it separates from the normal one and the Critical Angle is defined as the Angle for which the refraction occurs at 90º

            n₂ sin θ₂ = n₁ sin 90

           n₁ / n₂ = sin θ₂

As we can see, we have to measure the angle with which the laser touches the exit surface of the glass block.

Design of the experiment:

    We place the glass block on the ramp and at the top we hit the conveyor for half the angle, we climb the block on the ramp and see that the angle of incidence of lightning on the exit face changes, part of the beam comes out of the glass , we see it by dispersion in the particles of dirty in the air; Maybe the conveyor or the laser should be moved slightly so that the beam touches the point of origin on the conveyor.

   

   When we go up the ramp there is a point where the beam is reflected inside the block, we carefully step back to the point where the beam is horizontal, we measure this angle which is our critical angle.

If a planet has the same mass as the earth, but has twice the radius, how does the surface gravity, g, compare to g on the surfa
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The surface gravity g of the planet is 1/4 of the surface gravity on earth.

Explanation:

Surface gravity is given by the following formula:

g=G\frac{m}{r^{2}}

So the gravity of both the earth and the planet is written in terms of their own radius, so we get:

g_{E}=G\frac{m}{r_{E}^{2}}

g_{P}=G\frac{m}{r_{P}^{2}}

The problem tells us the radius of the planet is twice that of the radius on earth, so:

r_{P}=2r_{E}

If we substituted that into the gravity of the planet equation we would end up with the following formula:

g_{P}=G\frac{m}{(2r_{E})^{2}}

Which yields:

g_{P}=G\frac{m}{4r_{E}^{2}}

So we can now compare the two gravities:

\frac{g_{P}}{g_{E}}=\frac{G\frac{m}{4r_{E}^{2}}}{G\frac{m}{r_{E}^{2}}}

When simplifying the ratio we end up with:

\frac{g_{P}}{g_{E}}=\frac{1}{4}

So the gravity acceleration on the surface of the planet is 1/4 of that on the surface of Earth.
