A guitar string 0.65m long vibrates with a first harmonic frequency of 280Hz. Mary measures 1m of the string and discovers that it weighs 8.0x10^-4 kg. What is the tension in the guitar string?

f = 280 Hz, l = 0.65 m, μ = 8x10^-4 kgm^-1Therefore use the equation f=(1/2l)(T/μ)^1/2Rearrange it to get it in the form T= by multiplying f by 2l, squaring both sides and then multiplying by μ to getT = ...

A ball of mass m is thrown from the ground at the speed u=10ms^-1 at an angle of 30 degrees. Find the max height, the total flight time and the max distance it travels?Assume g=10ms^-1 and there is no air friction

First let’s split the problem into 2 parts: Vertical(y direction) and Horizontal(x direction.Vertical: u_y = 10 sin (30) = 5ms^-1
As for the ball to stop at max height and the fall down, all the kine...
