Physics

trasher [3.6K]3 years ago
6 0

Archimedes' principle states that a body immersed in a fluid is subjected to an upwards force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. This is a first condition of equilibrium. We consider that the above force, called force of buoyancy, is located in the centre of the submerged hull that we call centre of buoyancy.

Suppose the B string on a guitar is 24" long and vibrates with a frequency of about 247 Hz. You place your finger on the 5th fre
Rudiy27

Answer:

b. E (about 329 Hz)

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial length of the string l1= 24 in

initial frequency f1= 247 Hz

changed length l2= 18 in

Then we have to find the changed frequency f2= ?

We already now that

frequency f ∝ 1/length of the string l

therefore,

\frac{f_1}{f_2} =\frac{l_1}{l_2}

⇒{f_2}=\frac{l_1}{l_2}\times{f_1}

⇒{f_2}=\frac{24}{18}\times{247}

⇒{f_2}=329.33 Hz

When dolphin swims close to its prey, it transmits sound waves to figure out details (like direction where the fish is moving) o
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The frequency of the waves depends on the distance between wave fronts - considering a front as a maximum disturbance of the wave

(Consider the waves emitted by an organ pipe: condensation and rarefactions)

The waves themselves are a fixed distance apart -

as one moves towards the source the waves received will be closer together (higher frequency)

So if the frequency received increases, the distance between the source and the observer must be decreasing

What would happen if a person who is wearing a heavy winter jacket were to place a thermometer inside the jacket next to his or
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Explained.

Explanation:

Let me explain the two cases in by one.

(1) When Person wearing a jacket, heat from his or her body is going to get trapped inside his or her jacket to keep this person warm when a thermometer is placed inside, it would indicate a higher temperature on the scale.

(2) When Jacket is Hanging in a closet, its temperature would be roughly close to room temperature and when we would place a thermometer it would not indicate any change on its scale.

A ship's boiler steam comes out at 112 C and pushes through the system, exiting into the condenser,
solniwko [45]

Answer:

D: 0.239

Explanation:

Equation for ideal efficiency is;

η = 1 - (T_c/T_h)

We are told that;

steam comes out at 112° C. Thus, T_h = 112°C. Converting to Kelvin gives; T_h = 112 + 273 = 385 K

The one exiting into the condenser is kept at 20°C. Thus; T_c = 20 + 273 = 293 K

Thus;

η = 1 - (293/385)

η = 0.239
