How does increasing the tension of a spring affect a wave on the spring?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Increasing the tension of a spring affects a wave on the spring because it increases the frequency. When the tension rises, so does the frequency.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer: Increases the frequency of the wave

Explanation:

Increasing the tension of a spring means increasing its stiffness. The wave produced thereafter has greater frequency.  

Higher tension causes the spring to have greater restoring force causing it to quickly come back to its equilibrium position. Thus, the speed of the wave also increases.

Course TaskAs I sat under an Oak tree I recognized some similar comparisons to what Isaac Newton saw under his apple tree. I saw three different objects fall to the ground…an acorn, a leaf, and a small stick. I wondered how and why they fell the way they did. The stick fell from the very top of the tree and seemed to almost “slow down” about half way down. The acorn got faster all the way to the ground. Yet the leaf would just float back and forth in a calm rhythm like motion. Furthermore, I could see the moon sitting up in the sky just waiting to peak over the trees at dark. How is it that all objects are apparently affected by the earth’s gravity but they seem to respond differently? If gravity is a force that affects all objects…shouldn’t all objects respond the same? Interesting Phenomenon huh….Can you explain what is happening with each of these four objects (including the moon)?

If 20 beats are produced within one second, which of the following frequencies could possibly be held by two sound waves traveling through a medium along a common path at the same time? A. 38 Hz and 63 Hz
B. 22 Hz and 42 Hz
C. 47 Hz and 55 Hz
D. 18 Hz and 26 Hz

Answers

Answer:

B. 22 Hz and 42 Hz

Explanation:

The beat is an interference pattern which occurs when two waves of slightly different frequencies meet each other. The beat is heard as a periodic variation, whose frequency (called beat frequency) is equal to the absolute value of the difference between the frequencies of the individual waves:

f_B = |f_1-f_2|

In this problem, we are told that 20 beats per second are produced, so the beat frequency is

f_B = 20 s^(-1) = 20 Hz

Therefore, we must find the two waves which have a difference in frequency equal to this value, 20 Hz. Let's see each choice:

A. 38 Hz and 63 Hz  --> f_B = |38 Hz-63 Hz|=25 Hz --> NO

B. 22 Hz and 42 Hz  --> f_B = |22 Hz-42 Hz|=20 Hz --> YES

C. 47 Hz and 55 Hz  --> f_B = |47 Hz-55 Hz|=8 Hz --> NO

D. 18 Hz and 26 Hz --> f_B = |18 Hz-26 Hz|=8 Hz --> NO

So, the correct choice is

B. 22 Hz and 42 Hz


The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "B. 22 Hz and 42 Hz." If 20 beats are produced within one second, the frequencies that could possibly be held by two sound waves traveling through a medium along a common path at the same time is B. 22 Hz and 42 Hz 

A spring is stretched 0.75 m by using a force of 30 N. What is the spring constant

Answers

Hi there!

40 N/m

We can use Hooke's Law:

F = kx or F = -kx

F = force (N)

k = Spring constant (N/m)

x = displacement (m)

We are given the force and displacement, so:

F/x = k

30/0.75 = 40 N/m
