Which situations might cause two observers (A and B) to measure different frequencies for the same vibrating object? Select the

Alex787 [66]

We want to explain why two different observes may measure different frequencies for the same vibrating object.

We will see that the two correct options are:

Observer A is stationary and Observer B is moving.
Observer A and Observer B are moving at different speeds relative to each other.

Let's assume that the vibrating object is a guitar string. Thus, the string makes a noise, and from that noise, we can estimate the frequency at which the string vibrates.

Now there appears a really cool effect, called the Doppler Effect. It says that the apparent change of frequency is due to the motion of the observer or the source of the frequency (or both).

For example, if you move towards the vibrating string, the perceived frequency will be larger, and you will hear a "higher" sound.

While if you move away from the string, the opposite happens, and you will hear a "lower" sound.

Then the only thing that impacts in how we perceive the frequency is our velocity relative to the source.

So, why do observers A and B measure different frequencies?

The two correct answers are:

Observer A is stationary and Observer B is moving.
Observer A and Observer B are moving at different speeds relative to each other.

A 65kg person throw a 0.045kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 30m/s. A second person, with a mass of 60kg, catches the s

Kobotan [32]

Well, st first we should find initial momentum for the first person represented in the task which definitely must be :
 $(65+0.045)*2.5$
And then we find the final one : $65*x + 0.045*30$
Then equate them together : $x=2.48 m/s$
So we can get the velocity, which is $is 2.48 m/s$
In that way, according to the main rules of conservation of momentum you can easily find the solution for the second person.
Regards!

The human ear canal is about 2.9 cm long and can be regarded as a tube open at one end and closed at the eardrum. What is the fu

solniwko [45]

The frequency of the human ear canal is 2.92 kHz.

Explanation:

As the ear canal is like a tube with open at one end, the wavelength of sound passing through this tube will propagate 4 times its length of the tube. So wavelength of the sound wave will be equal to four times the length of the tube. Then the frequency can be easily determined by finding the ratio of velocity of sound to wavelength. As the velocity of sound is given as 339 m/s, then the wavelength of the sound wave propagating through the ear canal is

Wavelength=4*Length of the ear canal

As length of the ear canal is given as 2.9 cm, it should be converted into meter as follows:

$wavelength = 4*2.9*10^{-2} =0.116$
