seraphim [82]

A device employing a lens, shutter, and persistent light source that projects images from glass slides onto a flat white wall or cloth drape hung in the dark is image projection began with the MAGIC LANTERN

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The magic lantern works on the sliding runner technology. The image can be made larger in size and can be projected with the help of an optical device. When the technology of motion toy become older, this magic lantern is the modernized version of the motion toy technology. The modernization of the magic lantern was as an alternative of to motion-toy technology.

The photos and images that are taken can be increased in the size and projection can be made. These images can be enlarged in size by the help of a photographic images. this helps in image and also in taking photographs. This photographic image can be attached with Magic lantern. A long slide of glass helps in projecting the image on the walls or cloth drapes using magic lantern. This gives life to Shadows.

A whistle you use to call your hunting dog has a frequency of 21 kHz, but your dog is ignoring it. You suspect the whistle may n
uranmaximum [27]

The Doppler effect is the right concept to solve this problem. The Doppler effect is understood as the change in apparent frequency of a wave produced by the relative movement of the source with respect to its observer. Mathematically it can be described as,

f = (1-\frac{v_0}{v})f_0

Here,

f_0 = Frequency of the sound from the Whistle

f = Frequency of sound heard

v = Speed of the sound in the Air

Replacing we have that

1- \frac{v_0}{343} = \frac{20kHz}{21kHz}

\frac{v_0}{343} = 1-\frac{20}{21}

\frac{v_0}{343} = \frac{1}{21}

v_0 = \frac{1}{21}(343)

v_0 = 16.33m/s

Therefore the minimum speed to know if the whistle is working is 16.33m/s
