Answer:

993.52 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of sound emitted by the stationery train is 1057 Hz.

The car travels away from the train at 20.6 m/s.

The frequency the observer hears is given by the formula:

f_o = \frac{v - v_o}{v}f

where v = velocity of sound = 343 m/s

vo = velocity of observer

f = frequency from source

This phenomenon is known as Doppler's effect.

Therefore:

f_o = \frac{343 - 20.6}{343} * 1057\\ \\f_o = 322.4 / 343 * 1057\\\\f_o = 993.52 Hz

The frequency heard by the observer is 993.52 Hz.

Which of the following natural factors is likely to support the formation of an oceanic island?
stepan [7]
The natural factor that is most likely to support the formation of an oceanic island is the rise of magma from the seafloor. Oceanic islands are also otherwise known as volcanic islands. When volcanoes erupt, they create layers of lava that break the surface of the water. When the tops of the volcanoes emerge, an island is created.<span> </span>
