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.)

tourist travels 1500 miles using two planes. The second plane averages 50 miles per hour faster than the first plane. The touris
Genrish500 [490]

Answer

given,

tourist travels = 1500 miles

second plane averages 50 miles per hour faster than the first plane.

x = y + 50

The tourist uses the slower plane for the first 500 and the faster plane for the next 1000 miles.

total flying time = 6.5 hours

\dfrac{500}{y} + \dfrac{1000}{x} = 6.5

\dfrac{500}{y} + \dfrac{1000}{y + 50} = 6.5

\dfrac{500(50 + y)+ 1000 y}{y(y + 50)} = 6.5

25000 + 600 y = 6.5 y^2 + 325 y

6.5 y^2 - 275 y - 25000 = 0

on solving equation

y = 86.67 mile/hr

x = 86.67 + 50

x = 136.67 mile/hr
