A speaker fixed to a moving platform moves toward a wall, emitting a steady sound with a frequency of 205 Hz. A person on the pl

atform right next to the speaker detects the sound waves reflected off the wall and those emitted by the speaker. How fast should the platform move, vp , for the person to detect a beat frequency of 5.00 Hz?
Take the speed of sound to be 344 m/s.

Answer:

Explanation:

The question relates to Doppler effect and beat.

The observer is moving towards the reflected sound so apparent frequency will be increased

f = f₀ x (V + v₁) / (V - v₂)

f is apparent frequency , f₀ is real frequency , V is velocity of sound , v₁ is velocity of observer and v₂ is velocity of source . Here

v₁ = v₂ = vp as both observer and source have same velocity

f = f₀ x (V + v₁) / (V - v₂)

205 +5 = 205 x (344 +vp)/ ( 344 - vp)

1.0234 = (344 +vp)/ ( 344 - vp)

= 352 - 1.0234vp = 340+vp

12 / 2.0234vp

vp = 6 m /s approx.

How does the gravitational force between two objects change if the distance between the objects doubles?
Ymorist [56]

if the distance between the objects is doubled the force is reduced by a factor of 4

<h3>Whats is gravitational force?</h3>

Gravitational force is the force of attraction between objects in the universe.

f = G * m1 * m2 / r^2

f = gravitational force

G = gravitational constant

m1 = mass of object 1

m2 = mass of object 2

r = distance between the objects

From the formular, the gravitational force and the distance is an inverse relationship so increasing the distance by a factor results to reduction of the force by the square of the factor. hence doubling the distance which is distance mutiplied by 2 will lead to reduction of the force by 2^2 = 4

Therefore: The force decreases by a factor of 4.

hope it helps

Describe how air pressure is exerted on objects.
Delicious77 [7]
<span>The same amount of pressure is exerted on all sides of the object equally. If you had 13 psi, then that means on the top of the object, 13 psi would be pushing in on the object. From the bottom, 13 psi would be pushing up on the object. Same goes for all the sides as well. The pressure pushes 'in' on the object.</span>
