Answer:

Therefore,

The frequency heard by the engineer on train 1

f_{o}=603\ Hz

Explanation:

Given:

Two trains on separate tracks move toward each other

For Train 1 Velocity of the observer,

v_{o}=145\ km/h=145\times \dfrac{1000}{3600}=40.28\ m/s

For Train 2 Velocity of the Source,

v_{s}=90\ km/h=90\times \dfrac{1000}{3600}=25\ m/s

Frequency of Source,

f_{s}=500\ Hz

To Find:

Frequency of Observer,

f_{o}=?  (frequency heard by the engineer on train 1)

Solution:

Here we can use the Doppler effect equation to calculate both the velocity of the source v_{s} and observer v_{o}, the original frequency of the sound waves f_{s} and the observed frequency of the sound waves f_{o},

The Equation is

f_{o}=f_{s}(\dfrac{v+v_{o}}{v -v_{s}})

Where,

v = velocity of sound in air = 343 m/s

Substituting the values we get

f_{o}=500(\dfrac{343+40.28}{343 -25})=500\times 1.205=602.64\approx 603\ Hz

Therefore,

The frequency heard by the engineer on train 1

f_{o}=603\ Hz

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

at d the charge will be 3q and at 3d it will be 9q

Explanation:

for V=Vp-V2d

V=KQ/d=K*6q/2d=3kq/d for potential to 2d at 6q be zero the Vp will equal 3kq/d; hence at d, Q=3q and at 3d, Q=9q

Compare the frequency, wavelength, and radiant energy of yellow visible light to that of purple visible light.
dybincka [34]

Answer:

Violet has a higher frequency (approximately 7.5×1014 Hz 7.5 × 10 14 Hz ) than red light (approximately 4.3×1014 Hz 4.3 × 10 14 Hz ). Since the speed of both waves is the same, we infer that violet has a shorter wavelength (400 nm ) than red (700 nm ).

Explanation:

hope it helps this took a lot of my time please mark brainlets!
