Lower Pitch Due to the change to a lower frequency
kvv77 [185]3 years ago
5 0
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Decrease in frequency

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • When a sound source is moving away from an observer, the observer will hear a lower pitch. This is due to<em><u> decrease in frequency</u></em>.
  • Pitch of sound depends on the frequency of sound waves and also on the loudness and spectrum of sound. A high pitch sound corresponds to a higher frequency sound wave and a low pitch sound corresponds to a low frequency sound wave.
  • <em><u>Based on Doppler's effect, which is the change in the observed frequency of a wave such as sound wave when the source or the observer moves relative to the medium of transmission</u></em>, <em><u>as the sound source is moving away from the observer, the sound reaching the observer will have a larger wavelength but lower frequency. Thus the sound heard by the observer will have lower pitch. </u></em>

A car is traveling 20 m/s and slows down at a uniform rate. It stops in 6 seconds. How far has it traveled in this interval?
Scilla [17]

Answer:

Car travel a distance of 60.06 m in 6 sec

Explanation:

We have given initial velocity v = 20 m/sec

Time = 6 sec

As the car stops finally so final velocity v = 0

From the first equation of motion

v = u+at (as the car velocity is slows down means it is a case of deceleration)

So v = u-at

0=20-a\times 6

a=3.33m/sec^2

Now from second equation of motion s=ut-\frac{1}{2}at^2=20\times 6-\frac{1}{2}\times 3.33\times 6^2=60.06m

Compare the weight of a mountain climber when she is at the bottom of a mountain with her weight when she is at the top of the m
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The correct answer is  a. Both are the same

Explanation:

For this calculation we must use the gravitational attraction equation

    F = G m M / r²

Where M will use the mass of the Earth, m the mass of the girl and r is the distance of the girl to the center of the earth that we consider spherical

To better visualize things, let's repair the equation a little

     F = m (G M / r²)

The amount in parentheses called acceleration of gravity, entered the force called peos

     g = G M / r²

     F = W

    W = m g

When analyzing this equation we see that the variation in the weight of the girl depends on the distance, which is the radius of the earth plus the height where the girl is

    r = Re + h

    Re = 6.37 10⁶ m

    r² = (Re + h)²

    r² = Re² (1 + h / Re)²

Let's replace

    W = m (GM / Re²)   (1+ h / Re)⁻²

    W = m g   (1+ h / Re)⁻²

This is the exact expression for weight change with height, but let's look at its values ​​for some reasonable heights h = 6300 m (very high mountain)

     h / Re = 10 ⁻³

     (1+ h / Re)⁻² = 0.999⁻²

Therefore, the negligible weight reduction, therefore, for practical purposes the weight does not change with the height of the mountain on Earth

The correct answer is a

Describe what happens in a crash according to newton's first law
Nostrana [21]

According to Newton's first law, an object in motion continues in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. It is the natural tendency of objects to keep on doing what they're doing. All objects resist changes in their state of motion. In the absence of an unbalanced force, an object in motion will maintain its state of motion. This is often called the law of inertia.

The law of inertia is most commonly experienced when riding in cars and trucks. In fact, the tendency of moving objects to continue in motion is a common cause of a variety of transportation injuries - of both small and large magnitudes. Consider for instance the unfortunate collision of a car with a wall. Upon contact with the wall, an unbalanced force acts upon the car to abruptly decelerate it to rest. Any passengers in the car will also be decelerated to rest if they are strapped to the car by seat belts. Being strapped tightly to the car, the passengers share the same state of motion as the car. As the car accelerates, the passengers accelerate with it; as the car decelerates, the passengers decelerate with it; and as the car maintains a constant speed, the passengers maintain a constant speed as well.

But what would happen if the passengers were not wearing the seat belt? What motion would the passengers undergo if they failed to use their seat belts and the car were brought to a sudden and abrupt halt by a collision with a wall? Were this scenario to occur, the passengers would no longer share the same state of motion as the car. The use of the seat belt assures that the forces necessary for accelerated and decelerated motion exist. Yet, if the seat belt is not used, the passengers are more likely to maintain its state of motion. The animation below depicts this scenario.

If the car were to abruptly stop and the seat belts were not being worn, then the passengers in motion would continue in motion. Assuming a negligible amount of friction between the passengers and the seats, the passengers would likely be propelled from the car and be hurled into the air. Once they leave the car, the passengers becomes projectiles and continue in projectile-like motion.
