The momentul of the system preserves:
Ok, we found the speed after the collision.
Now, because the impact is plastic, it produces heat, sound energy and who knows what other forms of energy. We denote all this wasted energy with

.
Now, we write the energy conservation law:

From the above equation, you find

, and then conclude that the sound energy can certainly not be greater than this.
Answer:
Perform a simple test of the material in the pan to assess whether it is real gold. Raw gold appears brassy yellow and bright. If you think it is gold, place your hand between it and the sun to create shade over the gold. If it still appears bright in the pan, chances are that it is real gold.
Explanation:
I believe the answer is B)

Answer:
Part A: What is the duck's speed? v=0.2m/s
Part B: How far apart are the crests behind the duck = 1m
Explanation:
The concept applied here is the DOPPLER EFFECT, for example, if one is driving towards a station at 120km/hr, a higher frequency will be heard. and if you are driving away from the station at the same speed, one will hear a much more lower frequency. Tthese effect was proposed by the Austrian physicist by name Johann Christian doppler.
The detailed steps and appropriate formula is as shown in the attached file.
