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

When two waves interact with their crests and troughs in alignment is called?
marissa [1.9K]

When two waves interact with their crests and troughs in alignment is called constructive interference. If two waves of the same wavelength occupy the same space in such a way that their crests and troughs align, the wave they produce will have an amplitude greater than that possessed by either wave initially. This is known as constructive interference. The more closely the waves are in phase—that is, perfectly aligned—the more constructive the interference.

Pwease hlp me (>O<) Darkness falls during daytime hours. Which event might have occurred?
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

D. Solar Eclipse

Explanation:

This is quite a phenomenal occurrence. Please, allow me to explain why D is correct.

A. A New Moon: This is the moon's first lunar phase. This is such a phase during which the sun and earth are located at nearly precise opposite ends of the moon, an occurrence that renders the moon nearly (if not) entirely invisible by the naked eye from an earthly perspective. This is not an occurrence that renders darkness during daylight.

B & C: (Partial & Total) Lunar Eclipse: A Lunar Eclipse is a beautiful occurrence that is visible <em>only </em>during nightfall, but can be witnessed from any location on earth that is <em>currently facing away from the sun </em>(a.k.a. nighttime hours). This occurs when the earth, sun, and moon are nearly perfectly aligned, with the sun and moon at opposite ends of the earth. The earth blocks the light of the sun, and though the side <em>facing </em>the sun won't experience any difference, the side <em>facing away from the sun </em>will be able to see the light from the sun beam around the earth, hitting the moon and reflecting back on us. The shadow of the earth entirely covers the moon during this event. The phases determines exactly what we see and to what degree/extent. This eclipse itself can happen numerous times a year, though only in Partial or Penumbral phases.

D. A Solar Eclipse: A solar eclipse is a breathtaking and oftentimes somewhat terrifying occurrence during which the moon passes <em>perfectly </em>in between the earth and the sun. Unlike a New Moon, however, this occurrence is perceived <em>during the day</em>, so for the side of the earth FACING the sun. When the moon is making its journey in between the sun and earth (which takes roughly 3-5m), the massive silhouette of the moon can be seen blotting out the sun, effectively causing a brief moment of darkness during daytime hours. This occurence is considered remarkably rare because DESPITE it occuring once per year, it can ONLY be viewed from specific locations on earth.
