Answer:

Explanation:

Iron and gadlinium are both very easily made into magnetic substances. Cobalt is also capable of being magnetized. Aluminum, put in an alloy, can make a magnetic substance, but

Aluminum by itself is not able to be magnetized.

A major artery with a cross sectional area of 1.00cm^2 branches into 18 smaller arteries, each with an average cross sectional a

dybincka [34]

Here we can say that rate of flow must be constant

so here we will have

$A_1v_1 = 18 A_2v_2$

now we know that

$A_1 = 1 cm^2$

$A_2 = 0.4 cm^2$

now from above equation

$1 cm^2 v_1 = 18(0.400 cm^2)v_2$

$\frac{v_2}{v_1} = \frac{1}{18\times 0.4}$

$\frac{v_2}{v_1} = 0.14$

so velocity will reduce by factor 0.14

You are traveling in a car toward a hill at a speed of 36.4 mph. The car's horn emits sound waves of frequency 231 Hz, which mov

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

a. The frequency with which the waves strike the hill is 242.61 Hz

b. The frequency of the reflected sound wave is 254.23 Hz

c. The beat frequency produced by the direct and reflected sound is

11.62 Hz

Explanation:

Part A

The car is the source of our sound, and the frequency of the sound wave it emits is given as 231 Hz. The speed of sound given can be used to determine the other frequencies, as expressed below;

$f_{1} = f[\frac{v_{s} }{v_{s} -v} ]$ ..............................1

where $f_{1}$ is the frequency of the wave as it strikes the hill;

f is the frequency of the produced by the horn of the car = 231 Hz;

$v_{s}$ is the speed of sound = 340 m/s;

v is the speed of the car = 36.4 mph

Converting the speed of the car from mph to m/s we have ;

hint (1 mile = 1609 m, 1 hr = 3600 secs)

v = $36.4 mph *\frac{1609 m}{1 mile} *\frac{1 hr}{3600 secs}$

v = 16.27 m/s

Substituting into equation 1 we have

$f_{1}$ = $231 Hz (\frac{340 m/s}{340 m/s - 16.27 m/s})$

$f_{1}$ = 242.61 Hz.

Therefore, the frequency which the wave strikes the hill is 242.61 Hz.

Part B

At this point, the hill is the stationary point while the driver is the observer moving towards the hill that is stationary. The frequency of the sound waves reflecting the driver can be obtained using equation 2;

$f_{2} = f_{1} [\frac{v_{s}+v }{v_{s} } ]$

where $f_{2}$ is the frequency of the reflected sound;

$f_{1}$ is the frequency which the wave strikes the hill = 242.61 Hz;

$v_{s}$ is the speed of sound = 340 m/s;

v is the speed of the car = 16.27 m/s.

Substituting our values into equation 1 we have;

$f_{2} = 242.61 Hz [\frac{340 m/s+16.27 m/s }{340 m/s } ]$

$f_{2}$ = 254.23 Hz.

Therefore, the frequency of the reflected sound is 254.23 Hz.

Part C

The beat frequency is the change in frequency between the frequency of the direct sound and the reflected sound. This can be obtained as follows;

Δf = $f_{2}$ - $f_{1}$

The parameters as specified in Part A and B;

Δf = 254.23 Hz - 242.61 Hz

Δf = 11.62 Hz

Therefore the beat frequency produced by the direct and reflected sound is 11.62 Hz

A Ping-Pong ball has a mass of 2.3 g and a terminal speed of 9.4 m/s. The drag force is of the form bv^2 What is the value of b?

julia-pushkina [17]

Drag Force = bv^2 = ma; a = g = 9.81 m/s^2

b = mg/v^2 = (0.0023×9.81)/(9.4^2)

b = 0.000255
