As you approach the police car with blaring siren, you hear a change in pitch and frequency. The apparent pitch changes as a result of the Doppler effect. Frequency determines pitch; frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional. You wouldn't "hear" either one. The result is pitch.

D) pitch and frequency.

Answer:

The correct answer would be frequency, intensity, and amplitude.

It can be explained with the help of Doppler effects which states that the frequency or wavelength of sound changes (increases or decreases) as source and observer move towards or away from each other.

Due to this effect, the frequency and intensity of siren increase as we move towards the siren.

In addition, amplitude also increases as we move towards the source of the sound and decreases as the observer moves away from the source.

A rock with a mass of 540 g in air is found to have an apparent mass of 342 g when submerged in water. (a) What mass of water is
AleksandrR [38]

(a) 198 g

When the rock is submerged into the water, there are two forces acting on the rock:

- its weight, equal to W=mg (m=mass, g=acceleration of gravity), downward

- the buoyant force, equal to B=m_w g (m_w=mass of water displaced), upward

So the resultant force, which is the apparent weight of the rock (W'), is

W'=W-B

which can be rewritten as

m'g = mg-m_w g

where m' is the apparent mass of the rock. Using:

m = 540 g

m' = 342 g

we find the mass of water displaced

m_w = m-m'=540 g-342 g=198 g

(b) 1.98\cdot 10^{-4} m^3

If the rock is completely submerged, the volume of the rock corresponds to the volume of water  displaced.

The volume of water displaced is given by

V_w = \frac{m_w}{\rho_w}

where

m_w = 198 g = 0.198 kg is the mass of the water displaced

\rho_w = 1000 kg/m^3 is the density of the water

Substituting,

V_w = \frac{0.198}{1000}=1.98\cdot 10^{-4} m^3

And so this is also the volume of the rock.

(c) 2727 kg/m^3

The average density of the rock is given by

\rho = \frac{m}{V}

where

m = 540 g = 0.540 kg is the mass of the rock

V=1.98\cdot 10^{-4} m^3 is its volume

Substituting into the equation, we find

\rho = \frac{0.540 kg}{1.98\cdot 10^{-4}}=2727 kg/m^3

A singly charged ion of 7Li (an isotope of lithium which lost only one electron) has a mass of 1.16 ×10^-26 kg. It is accelerate
MaRussiya [10]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of lithium, m=1.16\times 10^{-26}\ kg

It is accelerated through a potential difference, V = 224 V

Uniform magnetic field, B = 0.724 T

Applying the conservation of energy as :

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=qV

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2qV}{m}}

q is the charge on an electron

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 224\ V}{1.16\times 10^{-26}\ kg}}

v = 78608.58 m/s

v=7.86\times 10^4\ m/s

To find the radius of the ion's path in the magnetic field. The centripetal force is balanced by the magnetic force as :

qvB=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

r=\dfrac{mv}{qB}

r=\dfrac{1.16\times 10^{-26}\ kg\times 7.86\times 10^4\ m/s}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C\times 0.724\ T}

r = 0.0078 meters

So, the radius of the path of the ion is 0.0078 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

A rock is suspended by a light string. When the rock is in air, the tension in the string is 43.8 N . When the rock is totally i
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Density of unknown liquid is 2047 kg/m^3

Explanation:

When rock is suspended in air then the weight of the rock is counter balanced by the tension force in the string

So here we have

T = mg = 43.8 N

now when the rock is immersed in water then the tension in the string is and buoyancy force due to water is counter balanced by the weight of the object

so here we have

T_1 + F_b = mg

31.3 + F_b = 43.8

F_b = 43.8 - 31.3 = 12.5 N

now we have

(1000)V(9.81) = 12.5

V = 1.27 \times 10^{-3} m^3

now when the rock is immersed into other liquid then we have

T_2 + F_b' = mg

18.3 + F_b' = 43.8

F_b' = 25.5 N

now we have

\rho(1.27 \times 10^{-3})(9.81) = 25.5

\rho = 2047 kg/m^3
