Answer: 4nmeter

Explanation: The two observer a and b will measure the same wavelength since the speed of the space craft is very small compared with the speed of light c. That is

V which is the speed of space craft 15000km/s = 15000000m/s

Comparing this with the speed of light c 3*EXP(8)m/s we have

15000000/300000000

= 0.05=0.1

Therefore the speed of the space craft V in terms of the speed of light c is 0.1c special relativity does not apply to object moving at such speed. So the wavelength would not be contracted it will remain same for both observers.

Answer:of

Astronomers living on planets a measure λO = 3.80_nm

Astronomers living on planets b measure λO = 4.2_nm

Explanation:

Astronomers living on planets a measure λO = 3.80_nm

Astronomers living on planets b measure λO = 4.2_nm

a.) Speed of the radio wave

c = 299792458 m/s.

λO = λS(c − vS)/(c − vO)

λO = observed wavelength

λS = source constant wavelength = 4 nm

c = wavefront constant velocity = 299792458 m/s

vS = velocity of the source = 15000 km/s

vO = velocity of the observer 0

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

11.3 g/cm^3

Explanation:

density = mass/volume

volume of rectangular prism = length * width * height

volume = (4.50 cm)(5.20 cm)(6.00 cm) = 140.4 cm^3

mass = 1587 g

density = (1587 g)/(140.4 cm^3)

density = 11.3 g/cm^3

Which is better? ( Gifting or Receiving )
Katen [24]
Honestly, giving. I know that receiving may feel very good, and you get that new thing that you wanted but if you give, you feel really good when you see that smile on someone else’s face.

Show all your work clearly on the scratch paper) Two in-phase loudspeakers that emit sound with the same frequency are placed al
Darya [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

The speed of sound in air to be 343 m/s.

Given:

distance 'd' = 5 m

L = 12 m

It can be concluded that path difference must be equal to half of the wavelength when person is observing destructive interference'y' at 1 m distance from the equidistant position

Since

λ/2 = yd/L

λ/2 = (1 x 5)/12

λ = 0.833m

Frequency of the sound is given by,

f = v / λ => 343 / 0.833

f=411.6 Hz
