Sam is walking through the park. He hears a police car siren moving on the street coming toward him. What happens to the siren s

ound as it approaches and then passes Sam?
a. As the siren approaches Sam, the frequency of sound waves from the siren increase. As the police car continues past Sam, the sound waves decrease in frequency.
b. As the police car approaches Sam, sound waves from the siren remain constant. As the car continues past Sam, the sound waves decrease in frequency.
c. As the police car approaches Sam, the frequency of sound waves from the siren decrease. As the car continues past Sam, the sound waves increase in frequency.
d. As the police car approaches Sam, the frequency of the sounds waves from the siren increases and continues to increase as the car passes and moves away from Sam.

The answer is a.

This is called the Doppler Effect. As a source of sound approaches a stationary object, the frequency observed by the object increases, and as the source of sound passes the stationary object, the frequency decreases.

A single loop of wire with an area of 0.0780 m2 is in a uniform magnetic field that has an initial value of 3.80 T, is perpendic
Katarina [22]

Answer:

The induced current is 26.7 mA

Explanation:

Given;

area of the loop, A = 0.078 m²

initial magnetic field, B₁ = 3.8 T

change in the magnetic field strength, dB/dt = 0.24 T/s

The induced emf is calculated as;

emf = - \frac{d \phi}{dt} \\\\emf = -\frac{dB.A}{dt} \\\\emf = A (\frac{dB}{dt} )\\\\emf = 0.078(0.24)\\\\emf = 0.0187 \ V

The resistance of the loop = 0.7 Ω

The induced current is calculated as;

V = IR\\\\I = \frac{V}{R} = \frac{emf}{R} = \frac{0.0187}{0.7} = 0.0267 \ A = 26.7 \ mA

A fish swims 12.0 m in 5.0 s. It swims the first 4.0 m in 2.0 s, the next 3.0 m in 1.2 s, and the last 5.0 m in 1.8 s. What is t

Use the distance swan and the time elapsed in that interval.

Average velocity = distance / time

Average velocity = [4.0 m + 3.0m] / 3.2 s = 2.1875 m/s

Explain the difference between the four states of matter.
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Solids :A solid has a definite shape and volume because the molecules that make up the solid are packed closely together and move slowly. Solids are often crystalline; examples of crystalline solids include table salt, sugar, diamonds, and many other minerals. Solids are sometimes formed when liquids or gases are cooled; ice is an example of a cooled liquid which has become solid. Other examples of solids include wood, metal, and rock at room temperature.  Liquids : A liquid has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container. Examples of liquids include water and oil. Gases may liquefy when they cool, as is the case with water vapor. This occurs as the molecules in the gas slow down and lose energy. Solids may liquefy when they heat up; molten lava is an example of solid rock which has liquefied as a result of intense heat.  Gases : A gas has neither a definite volume nor a definite shape. Some gases can be seen and felt, while others are intangible for human beings. Examples of gases are air, oxygen, and helium. Earth's atmosphere is made up of gases including nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide.  Plasma: Plasma has neither a definite volume nor a definite shape. Plasma often is seen in ionized gases, but it is distinct from a gas because it possesses unique properties. Free electrical charges (not bound to atoms or ions) cause the plasma to be electrically conductive. The plasma may be formed by heating and ionizing a gas. Examples of plasma include stars, lightning, fluorescent lights, and neon signs.
