A truck moving at 36 m/s passes a police car moving at 45 m/s in the opposite direction. If the frequency of the siren is 500 Hz

relative to the police car, what is the change in frequency (in Hz) heard by an observer in the truck as the two vehicles pass each other? (The speed of sound in air is 343 m/s.)

Answer:

change in frequency is 636 Hz

Explanation:

given data

speed v1 = 36 m/s

speed v2 = 45 m/s

frequency f = 500 Hz

speed of sound s = 343 m/s

to find out

what is the change in frequency

solution

we know here change of frequency formula that is

frequency = \frac{s+v1}{s+v2} (f)   ...................1

put here value in equation 1

and we take v2 = -45 because opposite direction

frequency = \frac{s+v1}{s-v2} (f)

frequency = \frac{343+36}{343-45} (500)

frequency = 636

so change in frequency is 636 Hz

a stone is thrown horizonttaly from a cliff of a hill with an initial velocity of 30m/s it hits the ground at a horizontal dista
ELEN [110]

Answer:

a) Time = 2.67 s

b) Height = 35.0 m

Explanation:

a) The time of flight can be found using the following equation:

x_{f} = x_{0} + v_{0_{x}}t + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}   (1)

Where:

x_{f}: is the final position in the horizontal direction = 80 m

x_{0}: is the initial position in the horizontal direction = 0

v_{0_{x}}: is the initial velocity in the horizontal direction = 30 m/s

a: is the acceleration in the horizontal direction = 0 (the stone is only accelerated by gravity)

t: is the time =?  

By entering the above values into equation (1) and solving for "t", we can find the time of flight of the stone:  

t = \frac{x_{f}}{v_{0}} = \frac{80 m}{30 m/s} = 2.67 s

b) The height of the hill is given by:

y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0_{y}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

Where:

y_{f}: is the final position in the vertical direction = 0

y_{0}: is the initial position in the vertical direction =?

v_{0_{y}}: is the initial velocity in the vertical direction =0 (the stone is thrown horizontally)            

g: is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Hence, the height of the hill is:

y_{0} = \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = \frac{1}{2}9.81 m/s^{2}*(2.67 s)^{2} = 35.0 m  

I hope it helps you!

How would electron domains impact the magnetism of the substance?
Vanyuwa [196]
Magnetic domain structure is responsible for the magnetic behavior of ferromagnetic materials like iron, nickel, cobalt and their alloys, and ferrimagnetic materials like ferrite. ... Magnetic domains form in materials which have magnetic ordering; that is, their dipoles spontaneously align due to the exchange interaction.
