Physics of Music • Explain how a trombone works in terms of the physics of waves.
Galloping Gertie • Rice Resonance
What will we hear if I play two tones that have slightly different frequencies? • Beats • When the sound changes in volume periodically due to the interference of the waves.
2D Interference • Sound • Water
If the force of friction on the box is 50 N, how hard must someone pull the box up the ramp in order to get it to move at a constant velocity? What is the coefficient of friction? FN Angle of elevation is 20° mbox= 27 kg Fp Fk Fg
Fp Fk Fg Fp= 140.5N = FN= 248.6 N
