Since both the speeder and the state trooper are moving at the same speed and same direction, therefore there would be no or zero Doppler shift.

In order to have a Doppler shift, the distance or separation between the state trooper and the speeder must also be changing with time. Which in this case, the distance remains the same or constant since they are moving alike. This is just like what would occur if they were both standing still or parked.

<span>So this further means that the frequency of sound is the same as the frequency heard by the speeder. Therefore the Doppler "shift" of the frequency on the speeder would be <u>zero. </u></span>

A 25 kg block is held against a compressed spring and then the spring is allowed to decompress giving the block a velocity. The
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

h=18.05 cm

Explanation:

Given that

m= 25 kg

K= 1300 N/m

x=26.4 cm

θ= 19.5 ∘

When the block just leave the spring then the speed of block = v m/s

From energy conservation

\dfrac{1}{2}Kx^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Kx^2=mv^2

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{kx^2}{m}}

By putting the values

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{kx^2}{m}}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{1300\times 0.264^2}{25}}

v=1.9 m/s

When block reach at the maximum height(h) position then the final speed of the block will be zero.

We know that

V_f^2=V_i^2-2gh

By putting the values

0^2=1.9^2-2\times 10\times h

h=0.1805 m

h=18.05 cm

arzan, who weighs 700 N, swings from a cliff at the end of a convenient vine thatis 20 m long. From the top of the cliff to the
vekshin1

Answer:

= 7.07 m

Explanation:

The Tarzan reaches bottom of swing after descending 2.5 m,

change in his potential energy equals his kinetic energy at bottom of swing

m g h = (1/2) m v²   ,  

hence speed v of Tarzan at bottom of swing is given as  

v = ( 2 g h )1/2

= ( 2 × 9.8 × 2.5 )1/2

= 7 m/s

At the bottom of swing, if the vine breaks, then he is moving with horizontal velocity 7 m/s in gravitational field.  

If vertical distance from ground to bottom of swing is 5 m, then time t for Tarzan to reach ground is given by

S = (1/2)g t2 or   t = (2S/g)1/2

= ( 2 × 5 / 9.8 )1/2

= 1.01 s

Horizontal distance traveled by Tarzan = 1.01 × 7

= 7.07 m
