Two guitarists attempt to play the same note of wavelength 6.50 cm at the same time, but one of the instruments is slightly out of tune. Consequently, a 17.0-Hz beat frequency is heard between the two instruments. What were the possible wavelengths of the out-of-tune guitar’s note? Express your answers, separated by commas, in centimeters to three significant figures IN cm.
Answers
Answer:
The two value of the wavelength for the out of tune guitar is
[tex]\lambda _2 = (6.48,6.52) \ cm[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The wavelength of the note is [tex]\lambda = 6.50 \ cm = 0.065 \ m[/tex]
The difference in beat frequency is [tex]\Delta f = 17.0 \ Hz[/tex]
Generally the frequency of the note played by the guitar that is in tune is
[tex]f_1 = \frac{v_s}{\lambda}[/tex]
Where [tex]v_s[/tex] is the speed of sound with a constant value [tex]v_s = 343 \ m/s[/tex]
[tex]f_1 = \frac{343}{0.0065}[/tex]
[tex]f_1 = 5276.9 \ Hz[/tex]
The difference in beat is mathematically represented as
[tex]\Delta f = |f_1 - f_2|[/tex]
Where [tex]f_2[/tex] is the frequency of the sound from the out of tune guitar
[tex]f_2 =f_1 \pm \Delta f[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]f_2 =f_1 + \Delta f[/tex]
[tex]f_2 = 5276.9 + 17.0[/tex]
[tex]f_2 = 5293.9 \ Hz[/tex]
The wavelength for this frequency is
[tex]\lambda_2 = \frac{343 }{5293.9}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda_2 = 0.0648 \ m[/tex]
[tex]\lambda_2 = 6.48 \ cm[/tex]
For the second value of the second frequency
[tex]f_2 = f_1 - \Delta f[/tex]
[tex]f_2 = 5276.9 -17[/tex]
[tex]f_2 = 5259.9 Hz[/tex]
The wavelength for this frequency is
[tex]\lambda _2 = \frac{343}{5259.9}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda _2 = 0.0652 \ m[/tex]
[tex]\lambda _2 = 6.52 \ cm[/tex]
This question involves the concepts of beat frequency and wavelength.
The possible wavelengths of the out-of-tune guitar are "6.48 cm" and "6.52 cm".
The beat frequency is given by the following formula:
[tex]f_b=|f_1-f_2|\\\\[/tex]
f₂ = [tex]f_b[/tex] ± f₁
where,
f₂ = frequency of the out-of-tune guitar = ?
[tex]f_b[/tex] = beat frequency = 17 Hz
f₁ = frequency of in-tune guitar = [tex]\frac{speed\ of\ sound\ in\ air}{\lambda_1}=\frac{343\ m/s}{0.065\ m}=5276.9\ Hz[/tex]
Therefore,
f₂ = 5276.9 Hz ± 17 HZ
f₂ = 5293.9 Hz (OR) 5259.9 Hz
Now, calculating the possible wavelengths:
[tex]\lambda_2=\frac{speed\ of\ sound}{f_2}\\\\\lambda_2 = \frac{343\ m/s}{5293.9\ Hz}\ (OR)\ \frac{343\ m/s}{5259.9\ Hz}\\\\[/tex]
λ₂ = 6.48 cm (OR) 6.52 cm

The smallest shift you can reliably measure on the screen is about 0.2 grid units. This shift corresponds to the precision of positions measured with the best Earth-based optical telescopes. If you cannot measure an angle smaller than this, what is the maximum distance at which a star can be located and still have a measurable parallax
Answers
Answer:
The distance is [tex]d = 1.5 *10^{15} \ km[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The smallest shift is [tex]d = 0.2 \ grid \ units[/tex]
Generally a grid unit is [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex] of an arcsec
This implies that 0.2 grid unit is [tex]k = \frac{0.2}{10} = 0.02 \ arc sec[/tex]
The maximum distance at which a star can be located and still have a measurable parallax is mathematically represented as
[tex]d = \frac{1}{k}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]d = \frac{1}{0.02}[/tex]
[tex]d = 50 \ parsec[/tex]
Note [tex]1 \ parsec \ \to 3.26 \ light \ year \ \to 3.086*10^{13} \ km[/tex]
So [tex]d = 50 * 3.08 *10^{13}[/tex]
[tex]d = 1.5 *10^{15} \ km[/tex]
A soccer ball is released from rest at the top of a grassy incline. After 2.2 seconds, the ball travels 22 meters. One second later, the ball reaches the bottom of the incline. (Assume that the acceleration was constant.) How long was the incline
Answers
Answer:
x = 46.54m
Explanation:
In order to find the length of the incline you use the following formula:
[tex]x=v_ot+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex] (1)
vo: initial speed of the soccer ball = 0 m/s
t: time
a: acceleration
You first use the the fact that the ball traveled 22 m in 2.2 s. Whit this information you can calculate the acceleration a from the equation (1):
[tex]22m=\frac{1}{2}a(2.2s)^2\\\\a=9.09\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex] (2)
Next, you calculate the distance traveled by the ball for t = 3.2 s (one second later respect to t = 2.2s). The values of the distance calculated is the lenght of the incline:
[tex]x=\frac{1}{2}(9.09m/s^2)(3.2s)^2=46.54m[/tex] (3)
The length of the incline is 46.54 m

A block rests on a frictionless horizontal surface and is attached to a spring. When set into simple harmonic motion, the block oscillates back and forth with an angular frequency of 8.1 rad/s. The drawing shows the position of the block when the spring is unstrained. This position is labeled x= 0 m. The drawing also shows a small bottle located 0.080 m to the right of this position. The block is pulled to the right, stretching the spring by 0.050 m, and is then thrown to the left. In order for the block to knock over the bottle,it must be thrown with a speed exceeding v0. Ignoring the width of the block, find v0.
Answers
Answer:
v₀ = 0.5058 m/s
Explanation:
From the question, for the block to hit the bottle, the elastic potential energy of the spring at the bottle (x = 0.08 m) should be equal to the sum of the elastic potential energy of the spring at x = 0.05 m and the kinetic energy of block at x = 0.05 m
Now, the potential energy of the block at x = 0.08 m is ½kx²
where;
k is the spring constant given by; k = ω²m
ω is the angular velocity of the oscillation
m is the mass of the block.
Thus, potential energy of the spring at the bottle(x = 0.08 m) is;
U = ½ω²m(0.08m)²
Also, potential energy of the spring at the bottle(x = 0.05 m) is;
U = ½ω²m(0.05m)²
and the kinetic energy of the block at x = 0.05 m is;
K = ½mv₀²
Thus;
½ω²m(0.08)² = ½ω²m(0.05)² + ½mv₀²
Inspecting this, ½m will cancel out to give;
ω²(0.08)² = ω²(0.05)² + v₀²
Making v₀ the subject, we have;
v₀ = ω√((0.08)² - (0.05)²)
So,
v₀ = 8.1√((0.08)² - (0.05)²)
v₀ = 0.5058 m/s
