Study the scenario. A rock is thrown in the air with 1,000 J of energy. The isolated system consists of the rock, the person, and the Earth, ignoring air resistance. At some point on its path up, there is 900 J of kinetic energy in the system. Which choice best describes the amount and form of energy in this system when the rock is at this point?
There are more than 100 J of gravitational potential energy in the system because the rock is at some position relative to the ground, and the total energy must be more than 1,000 J. Some energy is gained during energy transformation.
There are slightly less than 100 J of gravitational potential energy in the system because the rock is at some position relative to the ground, and the total energy will be less than 1,000 J. Some energy is lost during transformation.
All of the energy is in the rock at this point in time is kinetic energy. There are 0 J of any other energy in the system because gravity is not pulling on it at this moment.
There are exactly 100 J of gravitational potential energy in the system because the rock is at some position relative to the ground. There must be a total of 1,000 J of energy in the system because energy is conserved.

The frequency of vibrations of a vibrating violin string is given by f = 1 2l t ρ where l is the length of the string, t is its tension, and ρ is its linear density.† (a) find the rate of change of the frequency with respect to the following. (i) the length (when t and ρ are constant) (ii) the tension (when l and ρ are constant) (iii) the linear density (when l and t are constant) (b) the pitch of a note (how high or low the note sounds) is determined by the frequency f. (the higher the frequency, the higher the pitch.) use the signs of the derivatives in part (a) to determine what happens to the pitch of a note for the following. (i) when the effective length of a string is decreased by placing a finger on the string so a shorter portion of the string vibrates df dl 0 and l is ⇒ f is ⇒ (ii) when the tension is increased by turning a tuning peg df dt 0 and t is ⇒ f is ⇒ (iii) when the linear density is increased by switching to another string df dρ 0 and ρ is ⇒ f is ⇒
