Many musical instruments use “boxes” as part of the instrument. Some examples are acoustic guitars and pianos. From your experience in this lab on building your own musical instrument, write a brief essay on the purpose of these “boxes”. Include a brief description of a xylophone and what it uses for the purpose of the box.

The energy released by a chemical reaction can be measured using a calorimeter. when barium hydroxide octahydrate crystals are reacted with dry ammonium chloride inside of a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature of the 18.00 g of water in the calorimeter decreases from 30.0°c to 8.0°c. the equation for calculating energy absorbed or released by a reaction is: where q is the energy released or absorbed, m is the mass of water in the calorimeter, cp is the specific heat of water, and δt is the observed temperature change. if the specific heat of liquid water is 4.19 j/g·°c, how much energy was absorbed by the reaction?

Aperson walks first at a constant speed of 4.89 m/s along a straight line from point a to point b and then back along the line from b to a at a constant speed of 2.95 m/s. what is the average speed over the entire trip?

The field between two charged parallel plates is kept constant. if the two plates are brought closer together, the potential difference between the two plates either a) decrease b) does not change c) increase?
