AI Thread Summary
The first resonant length of a closed air column is 30.0 cm, leading to calculations for the second and third resonant lengths. The second resonant length is determined to be 90.0 cm, and the third is 150.0 cm, based on the relationship of multiples of the fundamental frequency. The wavelength is calculated as 120 cm, with the second resonant length corresponding to three-quarters of a wavelength. Understanding the positioning of nodes and antinodes is crucial for these calculations. The discussion emphasizes the importance of correctly applying the quarter wavelength principle in resonant length calculations.

Homework Statement


The 1st rensonat length of a closed air column occurs when the length is 30.0cm. what will the send ond and third be?

Homework Equations


I did the pattern thign like 3/4 but i got the wrong answer.

The Attempt at a Solution



i multplied the legth 3/4 but i got the wrong answer.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Second = 30.0*3=90.0 (cm)
Third= 30.0*5 = 150.0(cm)
u can draw graphs to know why.
 
A node is situated at the closed end an antinode at the open end. The "smallest structure" of the wavelenght that can accommodate this is a quarter wavelength.Which means that the wavelength is 120 cm. The next waveform will be three quarters of a wavelength (again a node at the closed end and an antinode at the open end).
 

Thread 'Rolling without slipping on a curved surface'

Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .

Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'

TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...

Thread 'Trying to understand the logic behind adding vectors with an angle between them'

My initial calculation was to subtract V1 from V2 to show that from the perspective of the second aircraft the first one is -300km/h. So i checked with ChatGPT and it said I cant just subtract them because I have an angle between them. So I dont understand the reasoning of it. Like why should a velocity be dependent on an angle? I was thinking about how it would look like if the planes where parallel to each other, and then how it look like if one is turning away and I dont see it. Since...
