Answer:

900.48925 Hz

979.9785 Hz

Explanation:

v_a = Relative velocity of ambulance =109\ km/h=\dfrac{109}{3.6}

v_w = Velocity of wall = 0

v = Velocity of sound in air = 343 m/s

From doppler effect we have

f=f'\dfrac{v+v_w}{v-v_a}\\\Rightarrow f=821\dfrac{343+0}{343-\dfrac{109}{3.6}}\\\Rightarrow f=900.48925\ Hz

The frequency of sound is 900.48925 Hz

When the wall acts like a source

f=f'\dfrac{v+v_a}{v-v_w}\\\Rightarrow f=900.48925\dfrac{343+\dfrac{109}{3.6}}{343-0}\\\Rightarrow f=979.9785\ Hz

The frequency of sound is 979.9785 Hz

earnstyle [38]
Most clouds form in the atmosphere when moist air rises expands and cool to the dew point. When the air above reaches its saturation point, the water vapor is attracted to dust particles which when they accumulate the hold on tho each other and form clouds. Evaporation and condensation is what causes saturation above. When the clouds become heavy enough with moisture, the water then fall to earth as rain. <span />

A physics professor is pushed up a ramp inclined upward at 30.0° above the horizontal as she sits in her desk chair, which slide
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

V = 3.17 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Mass of the professor m = 85.0 kg

Angle of the ramp θ = 30.0°

Length travelled L = 2.50 m

Force applied F = 600 N

Initial Speed  u = 2.00 m/s

Solution

Work = Change in kinetic energy

F_{net}d = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} - \frac{1}{2}mu^{2}\\\frac{2F_{net}d }{m} = v^{2} -u^{2}\\ v^{2} =\frac{2F_{net}d }{m} +u^{2}\\ v^{2} =\frac{2(600cos30 - 85\times 9.8 \times sin30) \times 2.5 }{85} +2.00^{2}\\ v^{2} = 10.066\\v = 3..17m/s

List 5 reason why water is not thermometric liquid​
kolezko [41]

Answer:

(1) it is transparent so it makes the reading difficult. (2) it is volatile. (3) it is a poor conductor of heat. (4) it has a higher specific heat capacity, so it absorbs more heat from the body with which it is kept in contact. (5) Water cannot be used in thermometer because of its higher freezing point and lower boiling point than other liquids . If water is used in a thermometer , it will start phase change at 0oC and 100oC and will not measure temperature , out of this range .

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND PLEASE MARK AS BRAINLIEST :)
