An ambulance is traveling east at 51.6 m/s. Behind it there is a car traveling along the same direction at 32.3 m/s. The ambulan

ce driver hears his siren at a frequency of 615 Hz.
32.3 m/s Car
51.6 m/s Ambulance

What is the wavelength of the sound of the ambulance’s siren if you are standing at the position of the car? The velocity of sound in air is 343 m/s .

Speed of source=51.6=s
speed of observer=32.3=o
original frequency=615=F
speed of sound=343=S
frequency hear by observer=f
f={ (S+o) /(S+51.6) }/F
f=585
Wavelength=5x 10^{5}  m

Answer:

21.28 m

Explanation:

height, h = 71 m

velocity of raft, v = 5.6 m/s

let the time taken by the stone to reach to raft is t.

use second equation of motion for stone

h = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

u = 0 m/s, h = 71 m, g = 9.8 m/s^2

71 = 0 + 0.5 x 9.8 x t^2

t = 3.8 s

Horizontal distance traveled by the raft in time t

d = v x t = 5.6 x 3.8 = 21.28 m
