Answer:

1764 kilowatt

Explanation:

h = 120 m, mass per second = 1500 kg/s

Power = m g h / t

Power = 1500 x 9.8 x 120 / 1

Power = 1764000 Watt

Power = 1764 kilowatt

A physicist drives through a stop light. When he is pulled over, he tells the police officer that the Doppler shift made the red
Alik [6]

Answer:

Speed of physicist car is 0.036c or 1.08 x 10⁷ m/s .

Explanation:

Doppler Effect is defined as the change in frequency or wavelength of the wave as the source or/and observer moving away or towards each other.

In this case, the Doppler effect equation in terms of wavelength is :

\lambda_{s} = \lambda_{o}\sqrt{\frac{1-\frac{v}{c} }{1+\frac{v}{c} } }       ......(1)

Here \lambda_{s} is source wavelength, \lambda_{o} is observed wavelength, v is speed of the observer and c is the speed of light.

Given :

Source wavelength, \lambda_{s} = 660 nm = 660 x 10⁻⁹ m

Observed wavelength, \lambda_{0} = 555 nm = 555 x 10⁻⁹ m

Substitute these values in the equation (1).

555\times10^{-9} } = 660\times10^{-9} \sqrt{\frac{1-\frac{v}{c} }{1+\frac{v}{c} } }

\sqrt{\frac{1-\frac{v}{c} }{1+\frac{v}{c} } } = 0.84

{\frac{1-\frac{v}{c} }{1+\frac{v}{c} } } = (0.84)^{2} = 0.7056

1-\frac{v}{c}=0.7056+0.7056\frac{v}{c}

\frac{v}{c}=\frac{0.2944}{8.056}

v = 0.036c=0.036\times3\times10^{8}

v = 1.08 x 10⁷ m/s
