A loudspeaker in a parked car is producing sound whose frequency is 20950 Hz. A healthy young person with normal hearing is stan

ding nearby on the sidewalk but cannot hear the sound because the frequency is too high. When the car is moving away from the person, the person can hear the sound. If the speed of sound is 343 m/s, what is the minimum speed of the moving car?

Answer:

359 m/s

Explanation:

Highest frequency a person can hear is 20,000Hz.

f = c × λ

Frequency = Wave speed × Wavelength

Wavelength = 20,000 ÷ 343 = 58.31m

Wavespeed = Frequency ÷ Wavelength

c = 20,950 ÷ 58.31 = 359.3 m/s

= 359 m/s (3 s.f.)

A 3 kg rock sits on a 0.8 meter ledge. If it is pushed off, how fast will it be going at the bottom?
andrey2020 [161]

As long as it sits on the shelf, its potential energy
relative to the floor is . . .

   Potential energy =      (mass) x (gravity) x (height) =

                                       (3 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (0.8m) = <u>23.52 joules</u> .

If it falls from the shelf and lands on the floor, then it has exactly that
same amount of energy when it hits the floor, only now the 23.52 joules
has changed to kinetic energy.

   Kinetic energy =                                          (1/2) x (mass) x (speed)²

                                                 23.52 joules = (1/2) x (3 kg) x (speed)²

Divide each side by  1.5 kg :     23.52 m²/s² = speed²

Take the square root of each side:    speed = √(23.52 m²/s²) =  <em>4.85 m/s </em> (rounded)

1. Traveling by car means you have specific roads to follow. You won’t be able to go straight to Banning high from POLAHS. The 8.4km will be defined as distance. Traveling by helicopter you don’t have roads to follow that means you can fly directly to banning high. 6.8km will be defined as displacement.

2. A) 400m
B)0m
C)d=1/2(vi+vf)t
400=1/2(0+vf)92
8.7m/s
D) 0m/s
E) Not sure but instantaneous velocity refer to velocity at a given point. Average velocity is just the average. Usually instantaneous velocity won’t be same as the average velocity.
Plz like if it helped.

What is the current when the voltage is 18 volts and the resistance is 6 ohms?
juin [17]
Voltage = current(I) * resistance (R)
V = 18
R = 6

18 = I * 6
I = 18/6 = 3 Amps or D
