The frequency of middle C on a string is
f = 261.6 Hz.

The given linear density is
ρ = 0.02 g/cm = (0.02 x 10⁻³ kg)/(10⁻² m)
   = 0.002 kg/m

The length of the string is L = 1 m.

Let T =  the tension in the string (N).
The velocity of the standing wave is
v= \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\rho} }

In the fundamental mode, the wavelength, λ, is equal to the length, L.
That is
Because v = fλ, therefore
\sqrt{ \frac{T}{\rho} } =f \lambda = fL \\\\ \frac{T}{\rho} = (fL)^{2} \\\\ T = \rho (fL)^{2}

From given information, obtain
T = (0.002 kg/m)*(261.6 1/s)²*(1 m)²
   = 136.87 N

Answer: 136.9 N (nearest tenth)

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

d₂ = 1.466 m

Explanation:

In this case we must use the rotational equilibrium equations

        Στ = 0

        τ = F r

we must set a reference system, we use with origin at the easel B and an axis parallel to the plank , we will use that the counterclockwise ratio is positive

      + W d₁ - w_cat d₂ = 0

      d₂ = W / w d₁

      d₂ = M /m d₁

      d₂ = 5.00 /2.9    0.850

      d₂ = 1.466 m

Help me please :(((((((
Dimas [21]

Answer: A.

Explanation: Roughly 180 - 200 million years ago, just before the first dinosaurs evolved. Mammals themselves evolved from a group or reptiles which exhibited mammal-like traits. One of them was specialized teeth. Reptiles tend to have teeth all the same shape. The mammal-like reptiles evolved tiny teeth in front of the jaw and two pairs of over sized fangs along the the sides. Like modern mammals, the head was large in proportion to the rest of the body. The jaws were also evolving another mammal trait, the ability to move sideways. Despite the lack of specialized teeth, acute hearing and the ability to chew, the dinosaurs evolved an adaptation which made them far more successful than mammals--modified leg bones. These limbs could be articulated directly under their bodies. This enabled the legs to support more weight, since the limbs were now under the body instead of at the sides. Then dinosaurs did something which secured their dominance for the next 120 million years - they began to stand on two legs. Although the back was still parallel to the ground, running on two legs greatly increased the dinosaur's speed. Mammals could simply not compete with swift, giant predators and were forced to remain small, and most became nocturnal to evade dinosaurs which were probably active during the day. Despite that they managed to survive which allowed the further evolution of mammals into us, humans.

Your friend turns the volume up on their speaker system, so that the sound intensity is 4 times greater than it was beforehand.
erica [24]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

We know that intensity I = P/A where P = power and A = area through which the power passes through.

Now, let the initial intensity of the speaker be I₀ and its initial power be P₀. Since the intensity is increased by a factor of 4, the new intensity be I and new power be P.

So, I = P/A and I₀ = P₀/A

Now, if I = 4I₀,

P/A = 4P₀/A

P = 4P₀

Now, energy E = Pt, where t = time. So, P = E/t and P₀ = E₀/t

Substituting P and P₀ into the equation, we have

P = 4P₀

E/t = 4E₀/t

E = 4E₀

Since the energy is four times the initial energy, the energy output increases by a factor of 4.
