Una cuerda es puesta a vibrar 400 veces en 4 segundos Cual es la frecuencia del sonido emitido?
Readme [11.4K]

n = number of vibrations set in the string = 400 vibrations

t = total time taken for "n" vibrations set in the string = 4 second

f = frequency of the sound emitted due to vibrations set in the string


frequency of the sound emitted due to vibrations set in the string is given as

f = n/t

inserting the above values in the above formula

f = 400/4

f = 100 Hz

hence the frequency of sound comes out to be 100 Hz

A group of particles is traveling in a magnetic field of unknown magnitude and direction. You observe that a proton moving at 1.
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity of proton  v = 1.5 x 10³ i  m /s

charge on proton e = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

Let the magnetic field be B = Bx i + Bz k

force on charged particle ( proton )

F = e ( v x B )

2.06  x10⁻¹⁶ j = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ [ 1.5 x 10³ i x ( Bx i + Bz k) ]

2.06  x10⁻¹⁶ j = - 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 1.5 x 10³  Bz j) ]

2.06  x10⁻¹⁶ = - 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 1.5 x 10³  Bz

Bz = -  .8583  

force on charged particle ( electron )

F = e ( v x B )

8.40  x10⁻¹⁶ j = -1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ [ - 4.4 x 10³ k  x ( Bx i + Bz k) ]

8.4  x10⁻¹⁶ j =  1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 4.4 x 10³  Bx j ]

- 8.4  x10⁻¹⁶ =  1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 4.4 x 10³  Bx

Bx =  - 1.19

Magnetic field = - 1.19 i - .8583 k

magnitude = √ (1.19² + .8583²)

= 1.467 T

If it is making angle θ with x - axis in x -z plane

Tanθ = (.8583 / 1.19 )

36⁰ .

C )

v = - 3.7 x 10³j m /s

e = - 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁶ C

Force = F = e ( v x B )

= -1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ [ -3.7 x 10³ j  x ( Bx i + Bz k) ]

=  - 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 3.7 x 10³  Bx  k -1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 3.7 x 10³Bzi ]

=    5.08 i - 7.04 k

Tanθ = 54 ° .

Suppose you are observing the interference pattern formed by a Michelson interferometer in a laboratory and a joking colleague h
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

In Michelson interferometer , two light waves from different directions are made to overlap so that fringes are formed on the screen due to interference . In it,  two monochromatic and coherent light are made to overlap which have some path difference or phase difference. They form dark and bright fringes .

Now when a match stick is lit in the path of a wave , the fringes will disappear  and an general illumination will be observed on the screen as the light from the lit match stick will not be coherent . Incoherent light can not form stable fringes.

the candle had 350 J of energy in the chemical store. As it burned, 250 J was transferred by lighting to the surrounding​
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Efficiency = 71%

Explanation:

Given the following data:

Output energy = 250 Joules

Input energy = 350 Joules

To find efficiency;

Efficiency = \frac {Out-put \; energy}{In-put \; energy} * 100

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Efficiency = \frac {250}{350} * 100

Efficiency = 0.7143 * 100

Efficiency = 71.43 ≈ 71%

Therefore, the efficiency of the candle is 71 percent.
