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

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

1) a substance made by mixing other substances together.

2) diverse in character or content.

3) of the same kind; alike.

4) a means of solving a problem or dealing with a difficult situation.

5) a homogeneous noncrystalline substance consisting of large molecules or ultramicroscopic particles of one substance dispersed through a second substance. Colloids include gels, sols, and emulsions; the particles do not settle, and cannot be separated out by ordinary filtering or centrifuging like those in a suspension.

How are some types of collisions different from others?
lyudmila [28]
There are two general types of collisions, inelastic and elastic. 
Inelastic collisions occur when two objects collide but neither of them bounce away from each other.
Collisions in which the objects do not touch each other are elastic. (Ex: Rutherford Scattering)

What is the mass of a crate if a net force of 12 N gives the crate an acceleration of 0.20 m/s2?
Veseljchak [2.6K]
A :-) for this question , we should apply
F = ma
Given - F = 12 N
a = 0.20 m/s^2
Solution -
F = ma
12 = m x 0.20
m = 12 by 0.20
m = 60 kg

.:. The mass is 60 kg.

Three resistances 2 ohm ,3ohm and 5 ohm are connected in parallel and a
hammer [34]

The potential difference across 3 Ohm resistor is 20V.

The resistors are connected in parallel which means all the three resistances have a fully potential difference of 20V.
