The Doppler effect is the change in sound or light that occurs whenever there is motion between the source and its observer. The siren of the fire engine has a lower pitch as it moves away because the waves are now spread out causing a lower frequency and a lower pitch. High-frequency sound waves have a higher pitch and higher energy than low-frequency waves.

Answer:

<u>Sirens lower pitch when the fire engine moves away:</u>

When the fire engine(the source) moves away from the listener, there is a change or decrease in frequency, f of the sound produced by the fire engine.

Because, when there is a change in the distance, d between the listener and the source of the sound there is always a change in the frequency or the pitch of the sound. As the source of the sound comprises a given field in which the intensity of the sound produced is much more effective, then the person standing outside that field.

<u>Source of the Sound, when the source is leaving:</u>

  • f₁=a/a+U,
  • And the sound pitch will be low,  f₁∠f.

<u>Sound source approaching towards the listener:</u>

  • fa=f×(a/a-U),
  • And the pitch of the sound will be of high value as, f∠fa.

Explanation:

<u>Doppler effect: </u>

"The Doppler effect is the change in the frequency,f level between the listener and the source. As the difference between the intensity or level of frequency,f is due to the increase and decrease of the distance between the listener and the source."

A particle (mass = 5.0 g, charge = 40 mC) moves in a region of space where the electric field is uniform and is given by Ex = –2
taurus [48]

Answer: 40m

Explanation: Distance is a function of speed/ velocity and time.

From the question the velocity along the z axis is given as 20 m/s at t = 0 secs We were ask to calculate the distance travelled when t = 2secs.

Recall that,

Velocity = distance travelled / time

Since we're calculating for distance we make it subject of formula;

Distance travelled = velocity * time

= 20m/s * 2s

= 40meter.

A cyclist moving with a constant velocity of 6.0 m/s forward passes a car that is just starting. If the car has a constant accel
sergiy2304 [10]

After 6 seconds, the car will surpass the cyclist.

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

The speed of the cyclist = 6 m/s.

Let after time t sec, the car will overtake the cyclist.

So, distance covered by the cyclist in t sec = 6t m

Initial velocity of the car is 0 m/s, because the car is just starting.

Acceleration of the car =2 m/s^2.

Final velocity of the car =6 m/s.

So to cover the distance 6t, the time required by the car = \frac{1}{2} \times a \times t^2 = \frac{1}{2} \times 2 \times t^2

6t = \frac{1}{2} \times 2 \times t^2\\6t = t^2

t =6 sec

So, after 6 seconds, the car will surpass the cycle.

The ____ is a wedge-shaped thickening in the middle layer of the eyeball that controls the shape of the lens.
Yanka [14]

The ciliary body is a wedge-shaped thickening in the middle layer of the eyeball that controls the shape of the lens.

The ciliary body is a section of the middle layer of the eye's wall. It is located behind the iris.  It includes a ring-shaped muscle that modifies the curvature of the lens when the eye focuses.

Additionally, it creates the transparent liquid that fills the area between the iris and the cornea. Aqueous humor is the name of this fluid in the eye.

It also contains the ciliary muscle, which modifies the lens' shape when your eyes focus on a close object.

The anterior pars plicata and the posterior pars plana are two parts of ciliary body. The anterior vitreous comes into contact with the pars plana, which creates a smooth surface. The ciliary processes, which are 70–80 radiating ridges, are produced by the pars plicata.
