Oksi-84 [34.3K]3 years ago

A map is almost always smaller than the place it describes. If a map of the US were drawn in its actual size, it would be 3,000 miles wide, and very difficult to fold. ... The scale of the map is the ratio of a distance on the map to the same distance on the real thing. ... If the map scale is 1 : 50000, then 1 foot on the map shows things that are actually spread over 50000 feet in the real city or field.

Singing that is off-pitch by more than about 1% sounds bad. How fast would a singer have to be moving relative to the rest of a
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

-3.396 m/s or 3.465 m/s

Explanation:

v = Speed of sound in air = 343 m/s

v_s = Relative speed of the singer

f = Observed frequency

f' = Actual frequency

1% change can mean f=1.01f'

From the Doppler effect equation we have

f=f'\dfrac{v}{v+v_s}\\\Rightarrow 1.01f'=f'\dfrac{v}{v+v_s}\\\Rightarrow 1.01=\dfrac{343}{343+v_s}\\\Rightarrow v_s=\dfrac{343}{1.01}-343\\\Rightarrow v_s=-3.396\ m/s

The velocity is -3.396 m/s

when f=0.99f'

f=f'\dfrac{v}{v+v_s}\\\Rightarrow 0.99f'=f'\dfrac{v}{v+v_s}\\\Rightarrow 0.99=\dfrac{343}{343+v_s}\\\Rightarrow v_s=\dfrac{343}{0.99}-343\\\Rightarrow v_s=3.46464646465\ m/s

The velocity is 3.465 m/s

Why is it advised to tie any luggage kept on the roof of a bus with a rope?​
hram777 [196]

Answer:

While the bus is moving, luggage tends to remain in inertia of motion state. When the bus stops, the luggage tends to resist the change and due to inertia of motion it moves forward and may fall off. That's why it is advised to tie any luggage kept on the roof of a bus with a rope.

How many joules of heat must be transferred to a 410-g aluminum pizza pan to raise its temperature from 32oC to 232oC? The speci
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

recall that heat absorbed released is given by

Q = mc*(T2 - T1)

where

m = mass (in g)

c = specific heat capacity (in J/g-k)

T = temperature (in C or K)

*note: Q is (+) when heat is absorbed and (-) when heat is released.

substituting,

Q = (480)*(0.97)*(234 - 22)

Q = 98707 J = 98.7 kJ
