Answer: 0.4 m
Explanation:
Given
Speed of ambulance, vs = 61.9 m/s
Speed of car = 28.5 m/s
Frequency of ambulance siren, f = 694 Hz
Velocity of sound in air, v = 343 m/s
With speed of ambulance being (61.9 m/s) -> We solve using
fd = f(v + vr) / (v - vs), where vr = 0
fd = 694 * (343 + 0) / (343 - 61.9)
fd = 694 * (343 / 281.1)
fd = 694 * 1.22
fd = 847 Hz
Recall,
λ = v/f
λ = 343/847
λ = 0.4 m
Therefore, the wavelength of the sound of the ambulance’s siren if you are standing at the position of the car is 0.4 m
D. 5.098 x 106 is the correct answer when reduced to the proper notation.
Average speed = (total distance) / (total time)
Total distance = (70km + 104km + 79km) = 253 km
Total time = (2hr + 1.5hr + 2hr) = 5.5 hrs
Average speed = (253 km) / (5.5 hrs)
<em>Average speed = 46 km/hr</em>
Answer:
Fc = 123 Newton
Explanation:
Net force can be defined as the vector sum of all the forces acting on a body or an object i.e the sum of all forces acting simultaneously on a body or an object.
Mathematically, net force is given by the formula;
Where;
Fnet is the net force.
Fapp is the applied force.
Fg is the force due to gravitation.
Given the following data;
Normal force = 25N
Mass = 10kg
To find the centripetal force;
From the net force, we have the following formula;
Fc = N + mg
Where;
Fc is the centripetal force.
N is the normal force.
mg is the the weight of the object.
Substituting into the formula, we have;
Fc = 25 + 10(9.8)
Fc = 25 + 98
Fc = 123 Newton
