Caroline, a piano tuner, suspects that a piano's G4 key is out of tune. Normally, she would play the key along with her G4 tunin

g fork and tune the piano to match, but her G4 tuning fork is missing! Instead, she plays the errant key along with her F4 tuning fork (which has a frequency of 349.2 Hz), displays the resulting waveform on a handheld oscilloscope, and measures a beat frequency of 76.7 Hz. Then, she plays the errant key along with her A4 tuning fork (which has a frequency of 440.0 Hz) and measures a beat frequency of 14.1 Hz.
What frequency is being played by the out-of-tune key ?
a. 363.3 Hz
b. 451.1 Hz
c. 33.9 Hz
d. 272.5 Hz
e. 425.9 Hz

Answer:

e. 425.9 Hz

Explanation:

The computation of the frequency is being played by the out-of-tune key is shown below;

Given that

Δf1  = x - 349.2 = 76.7.........(1)

Δf2 = 440 - x  = 14.1......(2)

Now solve (1) and (2)

(440 - x) - x + 349.2 = 14.1 - 76.7

789.2 + (-2x) = -62.6

x = 425.9 Hz

Hence, the frequency is being played by the out-of-tune key is 425.9 Hz

Therefore the option e is correct

At what distance of separation, r, must two 3.20 x 10-9 Coulomb charges be positioned in order for the repulsive force between t
STatiana [176]
I'm not 100% sure but I think the answer is 60.4, because you multiply 3.20 by 10, to get 32 - 9 = 23, then subtract 23 from 83.4. Hope this helps you, and good luck!!!

An electron is ejected from the cathode by a photon with an energy slightly greater than the work function of the cathode. How w
Ksivusya [100]

It will be approximately equal.

<h3>How will the final kinetic energy change?</h3>

We can infer that all of the energy in the electron is Potential energy (PE) because the energy provided by the photon is hardly enough to outweigh the work function.

It will gain kinetic energy (KE) as it advances in the direction of the anode because it is moving through an electric field. All of the PE will have been transformed to KE by the time it reaches the anode.

According to the question

K = hf - W

W = Work function

The energy of photons is comparable. After conversion, there was only a little amount of KE remaining.

Therefore, PE (W) essentially equals KE (K).

It will about be equal.

A 75 kg Spider Man running at 3.0 m/s jumps onto a trash can lid that has a mass of 10kg and that is already moving in the same
QveST [7]
In order to find the final velocity of the skier and the trash can lid, we may apply the principle of conservation of momentum, which states that the total momentum of a system remains constant. Mathematically, in this case:
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₃v₃
Where m₃ and v₃ are the combined mass and velocity.

75*3 + 10*2 = (75 + 10)*v₃
v₃ = 2.88 m/s

The final velocity is 2.88 m/s
