Summarize: Based on what you have learned, how will the sound that the observer hears

Reil [10]

Answer: The sound will change due to changes in frequency and the wavelength of the airplane.

Explanation: Let assume that the observer is at a stationary position. The wavelength of the sound from the airplane reduces and the frequency increases as the plane is moving toward the observer. As the airplane passes by, that is, moving away from the observer, the frequency starts to reduce while the wavelength of the sound starts to increase.

The sound that the observer hears will change base on the illustration above.

A mortar is like a small cannon that launches shells at steep angles. A mortar crew is positioned near the top of a steep hill.

Elena-2011 [213]

1) Distance down the hill: 1752 ft (534 m)

2) Time of flight of the shell: 12.9 s

3) Final speed: 326.8 ft/s (99.6 m/s)

Explanation:

1)

The motion of the shell is a projectile motion, so we can analyze separately its vertical motion and its horizontal motion.

The vertical motion of the shell is a uniformly accelerated motion, so the vertical position is given by the following equation:

$y=(u sin \theta)t-\frac{1}{2}gt^2$ (1)

where:

$u sin \theta$ is the initial vertical velocity of the shell, with $u=156 ft/s$ and $\theta=49.0^{\circ}$

$g=32 ft/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

At the same time, the horizontal motion of the shell is a uniform motion, so the horizontal position of the shell at time t is given by the equation

$x=(ucos \theta)t$

where $u cos \theta$ is the initial horizontal velocity of the shell.

We can re-write this last equation as

$t=\frac{x}{u cos \theta}$ (1b)

And substituting into (1),

$y=xtan\theta -\frac{1}{2}gt^2$ (2)

where we have choosen the top of the hill (starting position of the shell) as origin (0,0).

We also know that the hill goes down with a slope of $\alpha=-41.0^{\circ}$ from the horizontal, so we can write the position (x,y) of the hill as

$y=x tan \alpha$ (3)

Therefore, the shell hits the slope of the hill when they have same x and y coordinates, so when (2)=(3):

$xtan\alpha = xtan \theta - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Substituting (1b) into this equation,

$xtan \alpha = x tan \theta - \frac{1}{2}g(\frac{x}{ucos \theta})^2\\x (tan \theta - tan \alpha)-\frac{g}{2u^2 cos^2 \theta} x^2=0\\x(tan \theta - tan \alpha-\frac{gx}{2u^2 cos^2 \theta})=0$

Which has 2 solutions:

x = 0 (origin)

and

$tan \theta - tan \alpha=\frac{gx}{2u^2 cos^2 \theta}=0\\x=(tan \theta - tan \alpha) \frac{2u^2 cos^2\theta}{g}=1322 ft$

So, the distance d down the hill at which the shell strikes the hill is

$d=\frac{x}{cos \alpha}=\frac{1322}{cos(-41.0^{\circ})}=1752 ft=534 m$

2)

In order to find how long the mortar shell remain in the air, we can use the equation:

$t=\frac{x}{u cos \theta}$

where:

x = 1322 ft is the final position of the shell when it strikes the hill

$u=156 ft/s$ is the initial velocity of the shell

$\theta=49.0^{\circ}$ is the angle of projection of the shell

Substituting these values into the equation, we find the time of flight of the shell:

$t=\frac{1322}{(156)(cos 49^{\circ})}=12.9 s$

3)

In order to find the final speed of the shell, we have to compute its horizontal and vertical velocity first.

The horizontal component of the velocity is constant and it is

$v_x = u cos \theta =(156)(cos 49^{\circ})=102.3 ft/s$

Instead, the vertical component of the velocity is given by

$v_y=usin \theta -gt$

And substituting at t = 12.9 s (time at which the shell strikes the hill),

$v_y=(156)(cos 49^{\circ})-(32)(12.9)=-310.4ft/s$

Therefore, the final speed of the shell is:

$v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{(102.3)^2+(-310.4)^2}=326.8 ft/s=99.6 m/s$
