Answer:

a) We see that the tubes of lengths 15, 45 and 75 resonate with this wavelength

b) There is resonance for the lengths 25 and 75 cm

c) Resonance occurs for tubes with length 31 and 93 cm

Explanation:

To find the length of the tube that has resonance we must find the natural frequencies of the tubes, for this at the point that the tube is closed we have a node and the open point we have a belly; in this case the fundamental wave is

λ = 4L

The next resonance called first harmonic λ₃ = 4L / 3

The next fifth harmonic resonance λ₅ = 4L / 5,

WE see that the general form is λ ₙ= 4L / n n = 1, 3, 5 ...

Let's use these expressions for our problem

Let's start with the shortest wavelength.

a) Lam = 60 cm

Let's look for the tube length that this harmonica gives

L = λ n / 4

To find the shortest tube length n = 1

L = 60 1/4

L = 15 cm

For n = 3

L = 60 3/4

L = 45 cm

For n = 5

L = 60 5/4

L = 75 cm

For n = 7

L = 60 7/4

L = 105cm

We see that the tubes of lengths 15, 45 and 75 resonate with this wavelength, in different harmonics 1, 3 and 5

.b) λ = 100 cm

For n = 1

L = 100 1/4

L = 25 cm

For n = 3

L = 100 3/4

L = 75 cm

For n = 5

L = 100 5/4

L = 125 cm

There is resonance for the lengths 25 and 75 cm in the fundamental and third ammonium frequency

c) λ= 124 cm

L = 124 1/4

L = 31 cm

For the second resonance

L = 124 3/4

L = 93 cm

Resonance occurs for tubes with length 31 and 93 cm in the fundamental harmonics and third harmonics

Sidana [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the height of the tree is y and the distance of tree from point B is x.

According to the diagram

$tan61 = \frac{y}{x}$

x = 0.55 y ..... (1)

$tan49.5 = \frac{y}{50+x}$

(50 + 0.55y) 1.17 = y ..... from equation (1)

58.5 + 0.644 y = y

0.356 y = 58.5

y = 164.3 ft

A shift in one fringe in the Michelson-Morley experiment corresponds to a change in the round-trip travel time along one arm of

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Explanation:

When Michelson-Morley apparatus is turned through $90^{o}$ then position of two mirrors will be changed. The resultant path difference will be as follows.

$\frac{lv^{2}}{\lambda c^{2}} - (-\frac{lv^{2}}{\lambda c^{2}}) = \frac{2lv^{2}}{\lambda c^{2}}$

Formula for change in fringe shift is as follows.

n = $\frac{2lv^{2}}{\lambda c^{2}}$

$v^{2} = \frac{n \lambda c^{2}}{2l}$

v = $\sqrt{\frac{n \lambda c^{2}}{2l}}$

According to the given data change in fringe is n = 1. The data is Michelson and Morley experiment is as follows.

l = 11 m

$\lambda = 5.9 \times 10^{-7} m$

c = $3.0 \times 10^{8}$ m/s

Hence, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

v = $\sqrt{\frac{n \lambda c^{2}}{2l}}$

= $\sqrt{\frac{1 \times (5.9 \times 10^{-7} m) \times (3.0 \times 10^{8})^{2}}{2 \times 11 m}}$

= $2.41363 \times 10^{9} m/s$

Thus, we can conclude that velocity deduced is $2.41363 \times 10^{9} m/s$ .

What is the formula that can be used to find velocity if kinetic energy and mass are known?

viva [34]

The formula for kinetic energy is $\frac{1}{2}m\Delta v^2$ . Thus, the equation for velocity is $v= \sqrt{ \frac{2TotalKineticEnergy}{m} }$ .

A mass of 0.4 kg hangs motionless from a vertical spring whose length is 0.76 m and whose unstretched length is 0.41 m. Next the

Blizzard [7]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

= 1.256 m

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

We can start by finding the spring constant

F = k*y

Therefore; k = F/y = m*g/y

= 0.40kg*9.8m/s^2/(0.76 - 0.41)

= 11.2 N/m

Energy is conserved

Let A be the maximum displacement

Therefore; 1/2*k*A^2 = 1/2*k*(1.20 - 0.41)^2 + 1/2*m*v^2

Thus; A = sqrt((1.20 - 0.55)^2 + m/k*v^2)

= sqrt((1.20 -0.55)^2 + 0.40/9.8*1.6^2)

= 0.846 m

Thus; the length will be 0.41 + 0.846 = 1.256 m
