How would the atmosphere of earth differ if the earth was much larger
Juli2301 [7.4K]
If the earth just doubles its size in an instant, the oxygen present in the atmosphere could be much larger. Due to these, we could theorize that insects could grow much larger because the size of their body is heavily dependent on the maximum amount of oxygen present in the atmosphere. Air pressure also increases thus those aerial enthusiasts would enjoy their professions.

Why did boy (the observer) hear the pitch of the sound change? What does this tell us about the frequency of the sound? Support
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

<u>because of the doppler effect</u>

Explanation:

<em>Remember</em>, the doppler effect refers to the changes in sound (frequency of sound) observed by a person who is in a position relative to the wave source.

In this example, we notice as the train comes closer to the boy, the sound becomes louder also increasing the pitch slightly, the doppler effect sets in when the train passes the boy because the boy notices a decrease in the pitch of the moving train.

We learn from the change in the observed sound of the train that the frequency of the sound is determined by the distance of the observer from the wave source.

In other words, the closer the source of the sound to the observer; the faster it travels to the observer, however, the farther it is; the lesser it is; the greater the sound heard.
