Answer:

(a) 9.36 kHz

(b) 3.12 kHz

Explanation:

(a)

V = speed of sound

v = speed of airplane = (0.5) V

f = actual frequency of sound emitted by airplane = 4.68 kHz = 4680 Hz

f' = Frequency heard by the stationary listener

Using Doppler's effect

f' = \frac{Vf}{V-v}

f' = \frac{V(4680)}{V-(0.5)V)}

f' = 9360 Hz

f' = 9.36 kHz

(b)

V = speed of sound

v = speed of airplane = (0.5) V

f = actual frequency of sound emitted by airplane = 4.68 kHz = 4680 Hz

f' = Frequency heard by the stationary listener

Using Doppler's effect

f' = \frac{Vf}{V+v}

f' = \frac{V(4680)}{V+(0.5)V)}

f' = 3120 Hz

f' = 3.12 kHz

Answer:

student  A or B

Explanation:

A common demonstration is to put a ringing alarm clock or bell in the bell jar, and when the vacuum is created, you can no longer hear the sound of the clock/bell.

The bell is connected to a lab pack or batteries and rung to show pupils it can be heard under normal circumstances. The bell jar is then connected to a vacuum pump using a vacuum plate (see Fig 2) and the air is removed from inside creating a near vacuum. The bell is then again rung. This time however, it cannot be heard.

Small low voltage buzzers can be used as a bell replacement for the bell and work in exactly the same way though teachers generally prefer bells as students may be able to see the hammer moving, proving that it is actually ringing even though they cannot hear it.

Some vacuum pumps are better than others at keeping a strong vacuum though if you cannot completely lose the sound, you will at least notice the volume decreasing.

Sound is simply a series of longitudinal waves travelling from the source, through the air to our ears. Without air present, these waves cannot form and therefore sound cannot be conveyed.

In a longitudinal wave the particles oscillate back and forth in the direction of the wave movement unlike transverse waves which like waves on the sea, single particles travel up and down and not in the direction of the wave.

Because you will not be able to create a perfect vacuum, you may still be able to hear the bell ring slightly. Vibrations from the ringing bell can also travel up to the bung in the bell jar which in turn may resonate the jar slightly. This means you may hear the bell ring, however strong the vacuum. To compensate for this, try to insulate the bell as much as possible from the bell jar. Hanging the bell using elastic cord means some of the vibrations will be absorbed by the cord and not be transferred to the bell jar.

Bingel [31]

Answer:

Option 5.

Explanation:

Many of the properties of water like high specific heat, cohesion, high vaporization heat, etc can be contributed to the polar nature of water molecule.

Water being a polar molecule as it contains positively charged hydrogen and an electro-negative oxygen which results in uneven or non uniformity in sharing of electrons which leads to dipole formation and hence polarization of the molecule due to which it attracts its neighboring molecules.

This polar nature imparts the properties like cohesion, surface tension , adhesion, etc due to the presence of hydrogen bonds in water molecule.
