What happens to the sound waves when the source of the sound is moving toward you

Physics
1 answer:
Alexxandr [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The perceived frequency is higher than the actual emitted sound frequency. that means that the received sound waves are of shorter wavelength.

Explanation:

When the source of a sound wave is moving toward the observer, the perceived frequency of the wave changes in relation to the observer producing a change in pitch. The effect is called Doppler effect in honor of the physicist who formulated the physical explanation.

In the case of the sound source approaching the observer, the perceived frequency is higher than that actually emitted by the sound source.

A 2.51 kg ball is attached to a ceiling by a 1.19 m long string. The height of the room is 3.45 m. The acceleration of gravity i
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

55,42 J

Explanation:

Since the height of the room is 3.45 m (distance between the floor and the ceiling) the difference between this value and the length of the rope 1.19 m; it will be equal to (3.45-1.19) =2.26 m. If we take as a reference point (Ep=0) the floor of the room, then the potential energy will be equal to Ep = M * g * h, replacing values in this equation (2.5 kg * 9.81 m/s2 * 2.26 m) will be 55,42 (N * m) or Jules.

2. Below what depth would a submarine have to submerge so that it would not be swayed by surface waves with a wavelength of 24 m
Travka [436]

<u>Answer:</u> Below 12m of depth, the submarine has to submerge so that it would not be swayed by surface waves

<u>Explanation:</u>

To avoid the surface waves, a submarine has to submerge below the wave base. It is the position below which the motion of the waves is negligible.

This wave base is equal to half of the wavelength. The equation becomes:

Wave base = \frac{\text{Wavelength}}{2}

We are given:

Wavelength = 24 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Wave base = \frac{24m}{2}=12m

Hence, below 12m of depth, the submarine has to submerge so that it would not be swayed by surface waves
