I think the corect answer would be C. When a police officer receives information that you are speeding in your vehicle, she is using the frequency of the wave to measure the Doppler Effect. As the speed of a vehicle increases, the greater the change of the frequency of the waves would be transmitted to the radar guns which is being used by the police officer. Doppler effect is an effect that is observed in sound and light waves as these waves move away or to the direction of the observer. This is being used in many applications like in astronomy, weather balloons, the radar guns,and for underwater researches.

A mass moves back and forth in simple harmonic motion with amplitude A and period T.
Sever21 [200]

a. 0.5 T

- The amplitude A of a simple harmonic motion is the maximum displacement of the system with respect to the equilibrium position

- The period T is the time the system takes to complete one oscillation

During a full time period T, the mass on the spring oscillates back and forth, returning to its original position. This means that the total distance covered by the mass during a period T is 4 times the amplitude (4A), because the amplitude is just half the distance between the maximum and the minimum position, and during a time period the mass goes from the maximum to the minimum, and then back to the maximum.

So, the time t that the mass takes to move through a distance of 2 A can be found by using the proportion

1 T : 4 A = t : 2 A

and solving for t we find

t=\frac{(1T)(2 A)}{4A}=0.5 T

b. 1.25T

Now we want to know the time t that the mass takes to move through a total distance of 5 A. SInce we know that

- the mass takes a time of 1 T to cover a distance of 4A

we can set the following proportion:

1 T : 4 A = t : 5 A

And by solving for t, we find

t=\frac{(1T)(5 A)}{4A}=\frac{5}{4} T=1.25 T

Two 25.0N weights are suspended at opposite ends of a rope that passes over a frictionless pulley. What is the tension in the ro
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

tension in rope = 25.0 N

Explanation:

  • Two forces act on the suspended weight. The force coming down is the gravitational force and the upward force by the tension in the rope.
  • Since the suspended weight is not accelerating so that the net force will be zero. Therefore the tension in the rope should be 25 N.

       ∑F = F - W = 0

       so

       F = W

       so tension in rope = F  = T  = 25 N

Which statement is true for a sound wave entering an area of warmer air?
kherson [118]
The appropriate response is letter D. The wave ventures slower and with an expanded wavelength when a sound wave entering a range of hotter air. Hotter air implies less thick, so the wave ought to back off.

I hope the answer will help you, feel free to ask more in brainly.

On Mars, where air resistance is negligible, an astronaut drops a rock from a cliff and notes that the rock falls about d meters
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

d_1 = 16 d

Explanation:

As we know that initial speed of the fall of the stone is ZERO

v_i = 0

also the acceleration due to gravity on Mars is g

so we have

d = v_i t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

now we have

d = 0 + \frac{1}{2}g t^2

now if the same is dropped for 4t seconds of time

then again we will use above equation

d_1 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}g(4t)^2

d_1 = 16(\frac{1}{2}gt^2)

d_1 = 16 d
