<span>A student hears a police siren.

The arithmetic of the Doppler Effect shows that if the distance between
the source and observer is changing, then the observer hears a different
frequency compared to the frequency actually radiating from the source.

Thus the first four choices would cause the student to hear a different
frequency:

-- if the student walked toward the police car
-- if the student walked away from the police car
-- if the police car moved toward the student
-- if the police car moved away from the student

The last two choices wouldn't affect the frequency heard by the student,
since the perceived frequency of a sound doesn't depend on its intensity.

-- if the intensity of the siren increased
-- if the intensity of the siren decreased.</span>

The thin, narrow structure of the capillaries is well-suited to their function because the capillaries _____.

ipn [44]

Capillaries unlike arteries and veins in mammals and other organisms due to their size and structure can branch out across multiple regions within the tissues, providing essential nutrients and other compounds.

The correct solution would be 2.

What is the equivalent resistance for a parallel circuit that has two resistors: 18.0 ohms and 23.5 ohms?

vovangra [49]

With only two resistors in parallel, it's relatively easy
to calculate their combined equivalent resistance.

   R = (their product) / (their sum)

   = (18Ω x 23.5Ω) / (18Ω + 23.5Ω)

   =         (423Ω²) / (41.5Ω)

   =    10.2 Ω

Two charges are located in the x–y plane. If q1 = -2.90 nC and is located at x = 0.00 m, y = 0.840 m and the second charge has m

Lunna [17]

Answer:

Epx= - 21.4N/C

Epy= 19.84N/C

Explanation:

Electric field theory

The electric field at a point P due to a point charge is calculated as follows:

E= k*q/r²

E= Electric field in N/C

q = charge in Newtons (N)

k= electric constant in N*m²/C²

r= distance from load q to point P in meters (m)

Equivalences

1nC= 10⁻⁹C

known data

q₁=-2.9nC=-2.9 *10⁻⁹C

q₂=5nC=5 *10⁻⁹C

r₁=0.840m

$r_{2} =\sqrt{1^{2} +0.8^{2} } =\sqrt{1.64}$

$sin\beta =\frac{0.8}{\sqrt{1.64} } =0.6246$

$cos\beta =\frac{1}{\sqrt{1.64} } =0.7808$

Calculation of the electric field at point P due to q1

Ep₁x=0

$Ep_{1y} =\frac{k*q_{1} }{r_{1}^{2} } =\frac{8.99*10^{9}*2.9*10^{-9} }{0.84^{2} } =36.95\frac{N}{C}$

Calculation of the electric field at point P due to q2

$Ep_{2x} =-\frac{k*q_{2} *cos\beta }{r_{2}^{2} } =-\frac{8.99*10^{9}*5*10^{-9} *0.7808 }{(\sqrt{1.64})^{2} } =-21.4\frac{N}{C}$

$Ep_{2y} =-\frac{k*q_{2} *sin\beta }{r_{2}^{2} } =-\frac{8.99*10^{9}*5*10^{-9} *0.6242 }{(\sqrt{1.64})^{2} } =-17.11\frac{N}{C}$

Calculation of the electric field at point P(0,0) due to q1 and q2

Epx= Ep₁x+ Ep₂x==0 - 21.4N/C =- 21.4N/C

Epy= Ep₁y+ Ep₂y=36.95 N/C-17.11N =19.84N/C

How does deforestation contribute to the greenhouse effect?

bija089 [108]

There are two main effects of deforestation on global warming: 1) the "slash and burn" technique used to clear the forest releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and 2) destruction of living trees reduces the amount of photosynthesis, a process that removes carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and stores it in the plants as carbon. Carbon dioxide is one of the major gases contributing to global warming, and increasing its concentration will affect the amount of warming that occurs.
