two truckers are traveling directly away from each other at the same speed. If one trucker sounds her horn at a frequency of 206

Hz, and the other trucker hears a frequency of 189 Hz, determine the speed of the trucks. Use the speed of sound as 343 m/s. m/s

Answer:

v' = 14.76 m/s

Explanation:

given,

frequency of the one truck = 206 Hz

apparent frequency ,f' = 189 Hz

speed of sound, v = 343 m/s

speed of observer (v_o)and source (v_s) = v'

now, using Doppler's effect

$f' = \dfrac{v-v_o}{v+v_s}\ f$

$f' = \dfrac{v- v'}{v+v'}\ f$

$189 = \dfrac{343- v'}{343+v'}\ 206$

$0.9174= \dfrac{343- v'}{343+v'}$

314.69 + 0.9174 v' = 343 - v'

1.9174 v' = 28.30

v' = 14.76 m/s

hence, the speed of the truck is equal to 14.76 m/s

A conductor of radius r, length and resistivity ρ has resistance r. what is the new resistance if it is stretched to 4 times its

max2010maxim [7]

The resistance of a conductor is given by
$R= \frac{\rho L}{A}$
where L is the length of the wire, $\rho$ the resistivity of the material and A the cross-sectional area.

We can see that if all the other quantities do not change, if the new length of the conductor is 4 times the original length: $L'=4 L$ , then the new resistance is also 4 times the original value:
$R'= \frac{\rho L'}{A}= \frac{\rho 4 L}{A}=4 \frac{\rho L}{A}=4 R$

The greatest height reported for a jump into an airbag is 99.4 m by stuntman Dan Koko. In 1948 he jumped from rest from the top

leva [86]

Answer:

44.1613858478 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 0

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement = 99.4

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = a

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 99.4+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=44.1613858478\ m/s$

If air resistance was absent Dan Koko would strike the airbag at 44.1613858478 m/s

Answer:

The charge flows in coulombs is

$dq=1.843x10^{-5}C$

Explanation:

The current magnitude of current is given by the resistance and the induced Emf as:

$I=N*\frac{dF}{Rdt}$

$\frac{dq}{dt}=\frac{dF}{Rdt}=dq=N*\frac{dF}{R}$

$dq=\frac{N*\beta*A*(Cos(\alpha_f)-Cos(\alpha_i}{R}$

$N=1300$ , $\beta=0.703$ , $A=\pi*r^2=\pi*0.10^2=0.01\pi m^2$ , $R=99.4+202=301.4$ Ω

$\alpha_f=14.6$ , $\alpha_i=165.4$

Replacing :

$dq=\frac{1300*0.703x10^{-4}*0.01\pi*(0.9667-(-0.9667))}{202+99.4}$

$dq=1.843x10^{-5}C$
