How is Frequency related to Energy in a Wine Glass?

AI Thread Summary
Frequency and energy are related through quantum mechanics, but this relationship is not straightforward in classical physics. As energy increases, frequency typically increases, but exceptions exist, such as low-energy, high-frequency waves. In the context of a wine glass, filling it with liquid decreases the frequency of the sound produced because the water requires more energy to move, thus lowering the wave's energy. The frequency of a wine glass can also be affected by its effective vibrating area, which is reduced when water is added, leading to higher frequencies. Overall, the relationship between frequency and energy can vary depending on the physical context and medium involved.

is there an equation that relates frequency to energy on a larger scale, relating to standing waves...

what proves that as energy increases, so does frequency of a wave?

Quantum mechanics relates frequency to energy, but this strict relation is not present in classical physics. You can have low-energetic, high-frequency waves and high-energetic, low-frequency waves.
 
the reason that the frequency decreases in a wine glass as it is filled up with liquid is because it is using more energy to drag the water molecules with it, so the energy of the wave is decreasing, but so does frequency so they are directly related in this case?
 
when you talk about frequency of a wine glass, are you talking about a musical instrument like a glass organ? Acoustically you get a higher frquency when the glass has more water because the water reduces the glass area that can effectively vibrate to make the sound.
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanged mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
