I think shock waves require more speed they travel at the speed of sound

Answer:

Shock waves

Explanation:

The Doppler effect is well noticed at moments where the speed of the source is going slower than the speed of the waves. E.g. the change in apparent frequency of the sound of a train horn. As the train nears the observer, the blast of its horn is observed at a high pitch and as the train accelerates further, the blast of its horn is observed at a low pitch.

A shock wave is observed if the source is going at an equal speed as or faster than the wave can go. When the origin of sound moves at an equal speed as sound, it results in the source being at the front edge of the waves that it forms at all times.

The attached image shows a snapshots in time of diverse wavefronts forned by an aircraft that is accelerating at an equal speed as sound. The circular lines represent compressional wavefronts of the sound waves. Notice that these circles are bunched up at the front of the aircraft. This phenomenon is known as a shock wave. Shock waves are also produced if the aircraft moves faster than the speed of sound. If a moving source of sound moves faster than sound, the source will always be ahead of the waves that it produces. The diagram at the right depicts snapshots in time of a variety of wavefronts produced by an aircraft that is moving faster than sound. Note that the circular compressional wavefronts fall behind the faster moving aircraft (in actuality, these circles would be spheres).

If Anisa swims 85.4 yards in five minutes, how many meters will she swim in 70.0 seconds? ( use the metric system for this quest
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer : 18.22 meters

Explanation:

1 yard. = 0.9144 meters

85.4 yards = 78.08976 meters

1 minute = 60 seconds

5 minutes = 300 seconds

Speed of Anisa = distance / time

Speed of Anisa = 78.08976 meters / 300 seconds

Speed of Anisa = 0.26029 meters / second.

Distance travelled in 70 seconds = speed * 70

Distance travelled in 70 seconds = 0.26029 * 70 = 18.22 meters

A certain car battery with a 12.0 V emf has an initial charge of 131 A · h. Assuming that the potential across the terminals sta
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The battery can supply 130 W for 11.75 h

Explanation:

In order to discover the time in wich the battery can supply this energy we need to find how much current is being drawn from it, we do that by using the equation for real power that is P = V*I, since we have V and P we can solve for I as seen bellow:

I = P/V = 130/12 = 10.834 A

We can use this value to find how many hours the power can supply said current. We do that by dividing the current capacity of the battery by the current drawn:

t = 141/12 = 11.75 h
