Answer:

a. wavelength of the sound, \vartheta = 1.315\vartheta_{o}

b. observed frequecy, \lambda = 0.7604\lambda_{o}

Given:

speed of sound source, v_{s} = 80 m/s

speed of sound in air or vacuum, v_{a} = 343 m/s

speed of sound observed, v_{o} = 0 m/s

Solution:

From the relation:

v = \vartheta \lambda        (1)

where

v = velocity of sound

\vartheta = observed frequency of sound

\lambda = wavelength

(a) The wavelength of the sound between source and the listener is given by:

\lambda = \frac{v_{a}}{\vartheta }         (2)

(b) The observed frequency is given by:

\vartheta = \frac{v_{a}}{v_{a} - v_{s}}\vartheta_{o}

\vartheta = \frac{334}{334 - 80}\vartheta_{o}

\vartheta = 1.315\vartheta_{o}                (3)

Using eqn (2) and (3):

\lambda = \frac{334}{1.315} = \frac{1}{1.315}\frac{v_{a}}{\vartheta_{o}}

\lambda = 0.7604\lambda_{o}

A 1.5m wire carries a 6 A current when a potential difference of 68 V is applied. What is the resistance of the wire?
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

11.3 \Omega

Explanation:

We can find the resistance of the wire by using Ohm's law:

V=RI

where

V is the voltage applied

R is the resistance

I is the current

In this problem, we know I = 6 A and V = 68 V, so we can re-arrange the equation to find the resistance of the wire:

R=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{68 V}{6 A}=11.3 \Omega

Why do electrons flow in a circuit
Lerok [7]

Answer:

When a negative charge is brought near one end of a conductor electrons are repelled. ... When electric voltage is applied, an electric field within the metal triggers the movement of the electrons, making them shift from one end to another end of the conductor. Electrons will move toward the positive side.

How much heat is needed to raise the temperature of 6g of water by 19oC?
Paladinen [302]
First we have to convert 6 grams to kg (0.006 kg) and then using the thermal physics formula which is Q=m*c*change in temperature, we get 478,8 joule
(Btw c is the specific heat capacity of water which is 4200 j/kg °C

If you experience __________, do not use brakes, concentrate on steering, slow down gradually, brake softly when the car is unde
jekas [21]

Answer:

<em>Tire blowout</em>

Explanation:

<u>Tire Blowout </u>

A tire experiences a blowout when it rapidly and explosively loses the inflation pressure. It can happen when some sharp object cuts or tears the surface and the air is suddenly released, making things worse.

The driver frequently loses control of the traveling direction and can be involved in serious accidents. It is recommended not to use brakes during or after the blowout because it could bring little help or make things worse.

Focusing on steering and let the vehicle softly brake.
