The vibrations from sound waves cause our ears to send signals to our brains to create sound. The speed of sound waves will determine the sound's pitch, or how high or low something sounds. Sound waves are important because they allow us to hear important messages and emergency signals to protect ourselves.

If a 375 watt heater has a current of 5.0 A, what is the resistance of the heating element?

liberstina [14]

P=IV
V=IR

P=I(IR)
P=I²R
375=5²R
R=375/25
R=15

A particularly beautiful note reaching your ear from a rare stradivarius violin has a wavelength of 39.1 cm. the room is slightl

raketka [301]

The wavelength of the note is $\lambda = 39.1 cm = 0.391 m$ . Since the speed of the wave is the speed of sound, $c=344 m/s$ , the frequency of the note is
$f= \frac{c}{\lambda}=879.8 Hz$

Then, we know that the frequency of a vibrating string is related to the tension T of the string and its length L by
$f= \frac{1}{2L} \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} }$
where $\mu=0.550 g/m = 0.550 \cdot 10^{-3} kg/m$ is the linear mass density of our string.
Using the value of the tension, T=160 N, and the frequency we just found, we can calculate the length of the string, L:
$L= \frac{1}{2f} \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} } =0.31 m$
