A) Conversion from Fahrenheit to Celsius:
The relationship between the two scales is the following
T_f =  \frac{9}{5}T_c + 32
where
T_f is the temperature in Fahrenheit
T_c is the temperature in Celsius

Re-arranging the formula, we find the inverse relationship:
T_c= \frac{5}{9}(T_f-32)
and we can use this equation to convert T_f = 89.3^{\circ}F into Celsius:
T_c =  \frac{5}{9}(89.3-32)=31.7^{\circ} C

(b) Conversion to Kelvin scale:
The conversion between Celsius scale and Kelvin scale is easier:
T_k = T_c + 273.1
where T_k is the temperature in Kelvin. Using T_c = 31.7^{\circ} C, we find
T_k = 31.7 + 273.1 = 304.8 K

1. 168.1 Hz

To find the apparent frequency heard by the driver in the car, we can use the formula for the Doppler effect:

f'=(\frac{v\pm v_o}{v\pm v_s})f

where

f is the original sound of the horn

v is the speed of sound

v_o is the velocity of the observer (the driver and the car), which is positive if the observer is moving towards the source and negative if it is moving away

v_s is the velocity of the sound source (the train), which is positive if the source is moving away from the observer and negative otherwise

In this problem we have, according to the sign convention used:

v = 343 m/s\\f = 164 Hz\\v_o = -15 m/s\\v_s = -23 m/s

Substituting, we find:

f'=(\frac{343-15}{343-23})(164)=168.1 Hz

2.  2.96\cdot 10^8 m/s

The speed of light can be calculated as

v=\frac{d}{t}

where

d is the distance travelled

t is the time taken

In this problem:

d=2\cdot 3.85\cdot 10^8 =7.7\cdot 10^8 m is the total distance travelled by the laser beam (twice the distance between the Earth and the Moon)

t = 2.60 s is the time taken

Substituting in the formula,

v=\frac{7.7\cdot 10^8 m}{2.60 s}=2.96\cdot 10^8 m/s

The radius of Earth is about 6450 km. A 7070 N spacecraft travels away from Earth. What is the weight of the spacecraft at a hei
Triss [41]

Answer:

(a) 1767.43 N

(b) 182.45 N

Explanation:

Radius of earth, R = 6450 km

Weight of person, W = 7070 N

mass of person, m = W / g = 7070 / 9.8 = 721.4 kg

(a) h = 6450 km

The value of acceleration due to gravity on height is given by

g' = g\left ( \frac{R}{R+h} \right )^2

g' = g\left ( \frac{6450}{6450+6450} \right )^2

g' = g / 4 = 9.8 / 4 = 2.45 m/s^2

The weight of the person at such height is

W' = m x g' = 721.4 x 2.45

W' = 1767.43 N

(b) h = 33700 km

The value of acceleration due to gravity on height is given by

g' = g\left ( \frac{R}{R+h} \right )^2

g' = g\left ( \frac{6450}{6450+33700} \right )^2

g' = g x 0.0258 = 9.8 x 0.0258 = 0.253 m/s^2

The weight of the person at such height is

W' = m x g'

W' = 721.4 x 0.253

W' = 182.45 N

Small paragraph explaining how how potential and kinetic energy are related
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is energy possessed by a body by virtue of its movement. Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position or state. While kinetic energy of an object is relative to the state of other objects in its environment, potential energy is completely independent of its environment.
