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

The frequency of a given region of the electromagnetic spectrum ranges from 3 × 1016 − 3 × 1019 hertz. Which type of wave is fou
Bond [772]
<span>Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)
Speed of EM radiation = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Frequency (3 × 10¹⁹ Hz)  ===>  wavelength  =  0.01 nanometer

Frequency (3 × 10¹⁶ Hz)  ===>  wavelength  =  10 nanometers</span>

This is the region of X-rays.

Is the multiverse theory plausible?
kondor19780726 [428]
Sure. But whether it's provable is another question. We used to think the Milky Way was the whole universe. Then we found lots of other galaxies. Finding other universes is a bit different though. In theory we can never get out of our universe to go there. Anywhere we can get go is, by definition, still our universe. In this way our universe is like a black hole. No matter how hard we try we can't escape. Not even light can escape which means we couldn't see other universes if we wanted to. Their light is trapped inside them, like a black hole. So it would never reach our universe, never reach our telescopes.
