A speeding car is pulling away from a police car. The police car is moving at 30 m/s. The radar gun in the police car emits an e

lectromagnetic wave with a frequency of 20.0 x 109 Hz. The wave reflects from the speeding car and returns to the police car where the frequency is measured to be 4750 Hz less than what was emitted. The speed of light is 3 x 108 m/s. How fast is the speeding car going?

Answer:

65.625 m/s

Explanation:

F=20\times 10^9 Hz

\Delta F=F_r-F_t=4750 Hz

c = Speed of light = 3×10⁸ m/s

Relative speed

v=\frac{\Delta F}{2F}\times c\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{4750}{2\times 20\times 10^9}\times 3\times 10^8\\\Rightarrow v=35.625\ m/s

Relative speed = 35.625 m/s

Velocity of speeder = Velocity of police car + Relative speed

⇒Velocity of speeder = 30 + 35.625 = 65.625 m/s

∴ Velocity of speeder is 65.625 m/s

6. A 2-kg ball B is traveling around in a circle of radius r1 = 1 m with a speed (vB)1 = 2 m/s. If the attached cord is pulled d
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of ball m = 2kg

Ball traveling a radius of r1= 1m.

Speed of ball is Vb = 2m/s

Attached cord pulled down at a speed of Vr = 0.5m/s

Final speed V = 4m/s

Let find the transverse component of the final speed using

V² = Vr²+ Vθ²

4² = 0.5² + Vθ²

Vθ² = 4²—0.5²

Vθ² = 15.75

Vθ =√15.75

Vθ = 3.97 m/s.

Using the conservation of angular momentum,

(HA)1 = (HA)2

Mb • Vb • r1 = Mb • Vθ • r2

Mb cancels out

Vb • r1 = Vθ • r2

2 × 1 = 3.97 × r2

r2 = 2/3.97

r2 = 0.504m

The distance r2 to the hole for the ball to reach a maximum speed of 4m/s is 0.504m

The required time,

Using equation of motion

V = ∆r/t

Then,

t = ∆r/Vr

t = (r1—r2) / Vr

t = (1—0.504) / 0.5

t = 0.496/0.5

t = 0.992 second

Explain why the open umbrella hit the ground after the closed umbrella. *
balandron [24]

Answer:

An open umbrella would not hit the ground in front of the closed one.

Explanation:

The closed umbrella would impact first because it did not have as much air pressure. The open one has air that presses against it and makes it reach where the open umbrella floats but falls slowly
