Q: What makes an object produce sound?
Sound is produced by the vibration of an object. When an object undergoes oscillatory motion, it moves back and forth about a mean position.
Q: The frequency of a vibrating object is 20 hertz. What do you understand by this statement?
When the frequency of a vibrating object is 20 hertz, it means that the object completes 20 oscillations or vibrations in one second.
Q: An object completes 20 oscillations in ten second; find its frequency and time period. Â
To find the frequency and time period when an object completes 20 oscillations in ten seconds, you can use the following formulas:
- Frequency = Number of oscillations / Time
- Frequency = 20 oscillations / 10 seconds
- Frequency = 2 hertz (Hz)
- Time period = 1 / Frequency
- Time period = 1 / 2 Hz
- Time period = 0.5 seconds
So, the frequency of the object is 2 hertz, and the time period is 0.5 seconds.
