- Review. A tuning fork vibrating at 512 Hz falls from rest and accelerates at 9.80 m/s2. How far below the point of release is the tuning fork when waves of frequency 485 Hz reach the release point?arrow_forwardCan you perceive the shift in frequency produced when you pull a tuning fork toward you at 10.0 m/s on a day when the speed of sound is 344 m/s? To answer this question, calculate the factor by which the frequency shifts and see if it is greater than 0.300%.arrow_forwardA barrel organ is shown in Figure P18.38. Such organs are much smaller than traditional organs, allowing them to fit in smaller spaces and even allowing them to be portable. Use the photo to estimate the range in fundamental frequencies produced by the organ pipes in such an instrument. Assume the pipes are open at both ends. How does that range compare to a piano whose strings range in fundamental frequency from 21.7 Hz to 4186.0 Hz? FIGURE P18.38arrow_forward
- A string has a linear mass density µ, a length L, and a tension of FT, and oscillates in a mode n at a frequency f. Find the ratio of ff for a small change in tension.arrow_forwardReview. For the arrangement shown in Figure P14.60, the inclined plane and the small pulley are frictionless; the string supports the object of mass M at the bottom of the plane; and the string has mass m. The system is in equilibrium, and the vertical part of the string has a length h. We wish to study standing waves set up in the vertical section of the string. (a) What analysis model describes the object of mass M? (b) What analysis model describes the waves on the vertical part of the string? (c) Find the tension in the string. (d) Model the shape of the string as one leg and the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Find the whole length of the string. (e) Find the mass per unit length of the string. (f) Find the speed of waves on the string. (g) Find the lowest frequency for a standing wave on the vertical section of the string. (h) Evaluate this result for M = 1.50 kg, m = 0.750 g, h = 0.500 m, and θ = 30.0°. (i) Find the numerical value for the lowest frequency for a standing wave on the sloped section of the string.

Which is able to produce the lowest frequency?arrow_forward
- Review. An aluminum wire is held between two clamps under zero tension at room temperature. Reducing the temperature, which results in a decrease in the wires equilibrium length, increases the tension in the wire. Taking the cross-sectional area of the wire to be 5.00 10-6 m2, the density to be 2.70 103 kg/m3, and Young's modulus to be 7.00 1010 N/m2, what strain (L/L.) results in a transverse wave speed of 100 m/s?arrow_forwardA harmonic transverse wave function is given by y(x, t) = (0.850 m) sin (15.3x + 10.4t) where all values are in the appropriate SI units. a. What are the propagation speed and direction of the waves travel? b. What are the waves period and wavelength? c. What is the amplitude? d. If the amplitude is doubled, what happens to the speed of the wave?arrow_forwardA wave is modeled with the function y(x,t)=(0.25m)cos(0.30m1x0.90s1t+3) . Find the (a) amplitude, (b) wave number, (c) angular frequency, (d) wave speed, (e) phase shift, (f) wavelength, and (g) period of the wave.arrow_forward
- A string with a linear mass density of 0.0075 kg/m and a length of 6.00 m is set into the n=4 mode of resonance by driving with a frequency of 100.00 Hz. What is the tension in the string?arrow_forwardA nylon guitar string is fixed between two lab posts 2.00 m apart. The string has a linear mass density of =7.20 g/m and is placed under a tension of 160.00 N. The string is placed next to a tube, open at both ends, of length L. The string is plucked and the tube resonates at the n=3 mode. The speed of sound is 343 m/s. What is the length of the tube?arrow_forwardA violin string of ?=31.8 cm in length and ?=0.64gm⁄ linear mass density is tuned to play an A4 note at 440.0 Hz. This means that the string is in its fundamental oscillation mode, i.e., it will be on that note without placing any fingers on it. From this information, Calculate the tension on the string that allows it to be kept in tune.arrow_forward
