What is Doppler effect​

Physics
1 answer:
arsen [322]2 years ago
5 0

Doppler effect is the shift in frequency as the object gets near an object/person or far away from an object or person.

  • When the frequency of a police car is heard from far away, the frequency is low and long wave lengths
  • When the frequency of a police car is heard from near, the frequency is high and short-wave lengths

Hope it helps!

The trough of the sine curve used to represent a sound wave corresponds to
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is a rarefaction.

Explanation:

Sound waves are longitudinal waves that propagate in a medium, such as air. As the vibration continues, a series of successive condensations and rarefactions form and propagate from it. The pattern created in the air is something like a sinusoidal curve to represent a sound wave.

There are peaks in the sine wave at the points where the sound wave has condensations and valleys where it has rarefactions.

Have a nice day!

If you are holding a book and you let go of it, why does it fall? Explain in terms of forces, potential energy, and kinetic ener
inessss [21]

Answer:

Let the mass of the book be "m", acceleration due to gravity be "g", velocity be "v" and height be "h".

Now if we are holding a book at a certain height (h), <em><u>the potential energy will be maximum which is equal to mass× acceleration due to gravity× height (= mgh)</u>.</em>

(Remember: kinetic energy =0)

Now we consider that the book is dropped, in this case a force will act downward towards the centre of the earth, <em><u>Force= mass× acceleration due to gravity (F=mg)</u></em>. It is equal to the weight of the book.

While the book is falling, the potential energy stored in the book converts into kinetic energy and strikes the floor with <em><u>the maximum kinetic energy= (1/2)×mass×velocity² (=1/2mv²)</u>.</em>

(Remember: kinetic energy=0)

Due to this process the whole energy is conserved.

As the potential energy decreases kinetic energy increases.
