What is Doppler effect

1 answer:

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!

A(n) 0.2 kg object is swung in a vertical circular path on a string 0.1 m long. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2 . If a c

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

$T=83.37N$

Explanation:

Since the object is under a circular motion, according to Newton's second law, when the object is at the top of the circle we have:

$\sum F_y: T-mg=F_c$

Where $F_c$ is the centripetal force and is given by:

$F_c=ma_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}$

Replacing and solving for T:

$T=m\frac{v^2}{r}+mg\\T=0.2kg\frac{(6.38\frac{m}{s})^2}{0.1m}+0.2kg(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})\\T=83.37N$

A mixture of helium and oxygen is used in scuba diving tanks to help prevent ""the bends"". 46 L helium and 12 L oxygen are comb

marin [14]

Answer

given,

For helium

Volume,V = 46 L

Pressure,P = 1 atm

Temperature,T = 25°C = 273 +25 = 298 K

R=0.0821 L . atm /mole.K

n₁ = ?

number of moles

we know

P V = n R T

$n_1 =\dfrac{46 \times 1}{0.0821\times 298}$

n₁ = 1.89 moles

For oxygen

Volume,V = 12 L

Pressure,P = 1 atm

Temperature,T = 25°C = 273 +25 = 298 K

R=0.0821 L . atm /mole.K

n₂ = ?

number of moles

we know

P V = n R T

$n_2 =\dfrac{12 \times 1}{0.0821\times 298}$

n₂ = 0.49 moles

Total volume of tank = 5 L

temperature of tank = 298 K

Partial pressure of helium

$P_1=\dfrac{n_1 R T}{V}$

$P_1=\dfrac{1.89\times 0.0821\times 298}{5}$

P₁ = 9.25 atm

Partial pressure of oxygen

$P_2=\dfrac{n_2 R T}{V}$

$P_2=\dfrac{0.49\times 0.0821\times 298}{5}$

P₂ = 2.39 atm

total pressure

P = P₁ + P₂

P = 9.25 + 2.39

P = 11.64 atm

If the distance between slits on a diffraction grating is 0.50 mm and one of the angles of diffraction is 0.25°, how large is th

Trava [24]

Answer:

- path differnce = 2.18*10^-6

- 1538 lines

Explanation:

- The path difference for the waves that produce the pattern of diffraction, is given by the following formula:

$path\ difference\ = dsin\theta$ (1)

d: separation between slits = 0.50mm = 0.50*10^-3 m

θ: angle of a diffraction = 0.25°

Then, the path difference is:

$path\ difference\ =(0.50*10^{-3}m)sin(0.25\°)=2.18*10^{-6}m$

- The maximum number of bright lines are calculated by using the following formula:

$m\lambda = dsin\theta$ (2)

m: order of the bright

λ: wavelength = 650nm

The maximum bright is calculated for an angle of 90°:

$m=\frac{(0.50*10^{-3}m)sin90\°}{650*10^{-9}m} \approx 769$

The maxium number of bright lines are twice the previous result, that is, 1538 lines

The eiffel tower has a mass of 7.3 million kilograms and a height of 324 meters. its base is square with a side length of 125 me

uranmaximum [27]

Since the tower base is square with a side length of 125 m,

Therefore,

$(125\ m)^2+ (125\ m)^2=31250 m^2$

Square root of 31250 = 176.776953 (Diameter) , so this is the diameter of the cylinder to enclose it, and radius, r = 88.38834765 m and height, h = 324 m.

The volume of cylinder,

$=\pi r^2h=3.14(88.38834765 m)^2\times 324 m =7948168.803\ m^3$

Thus, the mass of the air in the cylinder,

$=1.225\ kg/m^3 \times 7948168.803\ m^3=9736506.78\ kg$

Hence, the mass of the air in the cylinder is this more than the mass of the tower.
