What happens to the sound of a train whistle as a train approaches and passes you? why?

Physics

omeli [17]2 years ago

This is called, The Doppler effect.

In short terms, when the trains is farther away the wavelength of the whistles sound are longer and more separate from each other, and more farther away from you, as it gets closer to you, the wavelengths start getting shorter and more louder the closer it gets to you. Basically the <span>wavelengths change because of the motion of the source.</span>

a desktop computer and monitor together draw about 2 A of current they plug into a wall outlet that is 120 V what is the Resista
Delvig [45]

Answer:

60 \Omega

Explanation:

the relation between current, voltage and resistance in an electrical circuit is given by Ohm's law:

V=IR

where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance. In this problem, the current is I=2 A, the voltage is V=120 V, therefore we can arrange the previous equation and find the resistance:

R=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{120 V}{2 A}=60 \Omega

water flows horizontally from a hose that is 3m above the ground. the water lands 7.2m to the right of the hose . how long does
Sidana [21]

Answer:

0.782 s

Explanation:

The water flows horizontally from the hose, so its initial vertical velocity is 0.

Given:

y₀ = 3 m

y = 0 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: t

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

0 m = 3 m + (0 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 0.782 s

Round as needed.

A hopper jumps straight up to a height of 1.3 m. With what velocity did he leave the floor
xxMikexx [17]

The velocity with which the jumper leaves the floor is 5.1 m/s.

<h3>What is the initial velocity of the jumper?</h3>

The initial velocity of the jumper or the velocity with which the jumper leaves the floor is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of energy as shown below.

Kinetic energy of the jumper at the floor = Potential energy of the jumper at the maximum height

¹/₂mv² = mgh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

where;

  • v is the initial velocity of the jumper on the floor
  • h is the maximum height reached by the jumper
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

v = √(2 x 9.8 x 1.3)

v = 5.1 m/s

Unlike the idealized voltmeter, a real voltmeter has a resistance that is not infinitely large. part a a voltmeter with resistan
Margaret [11]
The EMF of the battery includes the force to to drive across its internal resistance. the total resistance:  
R = internal resistance r + resistance connected rv 
R = r + rv  
Now find the current:  
V 1= IR 
I = R / V1  
find the voltage at the battery terminal (which is net of internal resistance) using  
V 2= IR  
So the voltage at the terminal is:  
V = V2 - V1  
This is the potential difference vmeter measured by the voltmeter.

6. One minute after takeoff, a rocket carrying the space shuttle into outer space reaches a speed of 447 m/s.
Sidana [21]

Answer:

acceleration of the rocket is given as

a = 7.45 m/s^2

Explanation:

As we know that rocket starts from rest and then reach to final speed of 447 m/s after t = 1 min

so we have

v_i = 0

v_f = 447 m/s

t = 1 min = 60 s

so we have

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a = \frac{447 - 0}{60}

a = 7.45 m/s^2
