You are standing on a sidewalk. There is a car in the distance. The horn on the car sounds. You hear it at a pitch that correspo

nds to a sound frequency lower than the frequency emitted by the horn. What can you conclude?A) Either A or C must be true.B) The car is moving on a line directly away from your present location.C) The wind has a component of its velocity in a direction away from you.D) The car has a component of its velocity in a direction away from you.E) The wind has a component of its velocity in a direction toward you.

Answer: The answer: The car is moving away from you.

Both A and C are true as Car can be moving in line away from you or has component of velocity in opposite direction.

Explanation:The decrease in the frequency of the sound is the result of Doppler's effect. A/c to Doppler's effect the frequency of received sound of source is changed if it is moving relative to the receiver, i.e. the distance between them is changing due to motion.

The general formula of Doppler's Effect is attached as the picture.

In this formula v_D is the velocity of Detector i.e the receiver relative to wind. While v_s is the velocity of source relative to wind and v is the velocity of sound.

The Doppler's effect is not effected by the velocity of wind as the wind itself could not change the distance between the two objects i.e. you and the car. Wind velocity can change the speed of sound and its wavelength but the change does not effect the frequency.

Hence if we assume the car to be moving with velocity v_c and you are stationary

f'=f_s*\frac{v}{v-v_c}

hence the frequency is reduced.

Why don't astronauts use a fountain pen or a ball point pen with liquid ink in a spacecraft

It's probably because there is no gravity which ballpoint pens need for inkflow to the tip.

What's the minimum Out PUT WORK<br> required to raise 14,0m3 of water 26.0m?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

3.57 MJ

Explanation:

ASSUMING it's fresh water with density of 1000 kg/m³

W = ΔPE = mgΔh = 14.0(1000)(9.81)(26.0) = 3,570,840 J

Salt water would require more.

Choose the correct explanation of whether the discovery should be considered reasonable or surprising.
earnstyle [38]

Answer: a. This would be exciting, but not surprising. Heat from Martian volcanoes may well be enough to melt water under the Mars' surface.

Explanation: It was recently observed by a team of geological researchers that there exist some activity at the crust of the planet mars. This activity are volcanic in nature and estimated to be about 10kilometers large. Also this volcanic eruptions in the planet mars core are described as among the largest in our solar system. Therefore it won't be a surprise that Heat from Martian volcanoes may well be enough to melt water under the Mars' surface.
