Compared to the emitted radio waves, the radio waves reflected from the vehicle and received by the radar gun have a<u> higher frequency.</u>

<u></u>

<h3>What is the frequency?</h3>

Frequency is defined as the number of repetitions of a wave occurring waves in 1 second. Its unit is Hz. Frequency is given by the formula as,

A moving car is targeted by radio waves sent from a radar gun by a police officer standing still.

The radio waves reflected off the vehicle and picked up by the radar gun have a greater frequency than the radio waves that were transmitted.

A stationary police officer directs radio waves emitted by a radar gun at a vehicle moving toward the officer.

Compared to the emitted radio waves, the radio waves reflected from the vehicle and received by the radar gun have a<u> higher frequency.</u>

Hence the higher frequency is the correct answer for blanks.

What are the two forces involved in an interaction called
natka813 [3]

Answer:These two forces are called action and reaction forces and are the subject of Newton's third law of motion. Formally stated, Newton's third law is: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The statement means that in every interaction, there is a pair of forces acting on the two interacting objects.

how long will it take the bird to cover a ground distance of 550 km from north to south? (note that even on cloudy nights, many
Trava [24]

The direction of the bird's velocity can be adjusted so that the wind and the resulting bird velocity will both be in the southerly direction.

(a) The bird should fly at an angle of roughly South 23.58° East if it wants to move directly southward in relation to the earth.

(b) The bird would need around 5.46 hours to fly 500 kilometers from North to South.

The components of the velocity are v(x) and v(y).

The magnitude of the velocity of the bird is 100 km/h

The orientation of the bird corresponds to that of North and South.

The magnitude of the velocity of the wind is 40 km/h

East-west is the direction of the wind.

(a) The component vector of the two velocities are;

The velocity of the bird, v(y) = -100(j)

The velocity of wind, v(x) = 40(i)

If the bird has a component of velocity to accommodate the wind velocity, the direction of its movement will be southerly.

Let θ be the angle of the direction of the bird relative to the negative x-axis, therefore:

-100(j) × cos(θ) = -40·i

θ = cos⁻¹(40/100)

θ ≈ 66.42° in the third quadrat, given that both the y, and x, values are negative.

In the South-West direction, the angle is:

90 - 66.42 ≈ 23.58°

Therefore, to fly directly southward relative to the ground, the bird should fly in the direction of south 23.58° east.

(b) The following is given as the component of the bird's southerly velocity when traveling in the new direction:

v(s) = 100 × sin(θ)

Hence,

Southward velocity,  v(s) = 100 × sin(66.42°)

The time t it takes to travel 500 km, is given as:

d = v(s)t

500 = 100 × sin(66.42°)(t)

t = 5.46 hrs

The bird would need 5.46 hours to fly 500 kilometers from North to South.

#SPJ4

The complete question is mentioned below:

Canada geese migrate essentially along a north–south direction for well over a thousand kilometers in some cases, traveling at speeds up to about 100 km/h. If one goose is flying at 100 km/h relative to the air but a 40-km/h wind is blowing from west to east,

(a) at what angle relative to the north–south direction should this bird head to travel directly southward relative to the ground?

(b) How long will it take the goose to cover a ground distance of 500 km from north to south? (Even on cloudy nights, many birds can navigate by using the earth’s magnetic field to fix the north–south direction.)

Which of the following would decrease current flow in a circuit made originally from a 6-volt battery, a loop of wire, and a swi
Oduvanchick [21]

For a given closed circuit the current voltage and resistance of circuit is related with ohm's law

V = i*R

here

V = voltage difference due to battery

i = current flow in the circuit

R = resistance

so from above equation

i = \frac{V}{R}

so in order to decrease the current in the circuit we can either increase the resistance of the circuit or decrease the voltage

Now the formula of resistance is

R =\rho \frac{L}{A}

here

\rho = resistivity of material of resistance

L = resistance

A = crossectional area

a) if we use a thick wire the as per above formula of resistance the value of resistance will decrease.

And hence the current will increase in the circuit so it is not correct option

b) If 6V battery is replaced by 12 V battery then due to increase in potential difference the current in the circuit will also increase, so this is not correct answer.

c)Opening the switch will decrease the voltage from 6 V to 0 Volt

due to this decrease in potential difference the current in the circuit will also decrease. So by Opening the switch the current will be decreased in this circuit.
