Question
Chapter 10, Problem 14STP
To determine
To Identify:The quantity which produces different sound qualities in different musical instruments.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Sound is a form of energy and is produced by vibrations in the molecules of the medium. The sound waves are mechanical waves and vibration is produced as the sound travels.
Sound waves from instruments consist of multiple layers of waves each of which is unique to the instrument.Overtones and Harmonics are one of the reasons why sound quality differs from instrument to instrument. For example, a guitar sounds different than a piano as they have strings of different lengths and, thus produce different frequencies.The quality of the material of the instrument is also one of the reasons for producing different sound.
Conclusion:
Hence, different sound qualities are produced in different musical instruments.

- 13.87 ... Interplanetary Navigation. The most efficient way to send a spacecraft from the earth to another planet is by using a Hohmann transfer orbit (Fig. P13.87). If the orbits of the departure and destination planets are circular, the Hohmann transfer orbit is an elliptical orbit whose perihelion and aphelion are tangent to the orbits of the two planets. The rockets are fired briefly at the depar- ture planet to put the spacecraft into the transfer orbit; the spacecraft then coasts until it reaches the destination planet. The rockets are then fired again to put the spacecraft into the same orbit about the sun as the destination planet. (a) For a flight from earth to Mars, in what direction must the rockets be fired at the earth and at Mars: in the direction of motion, or opposite the direction of motion?
