As the ambulance got closer, Marge noticed that the pitch of the siren got higher. This happened because

Neko [114]

Explanation :

As the ambulance got closer, Marge noticed that the pitch of the siren got higher. This is due to the Doppler's effect.

The siren of the ambulance has a higher pitch when it approaches Marge. When the waves move away from him, it will have a lower pitch.

As the waves come closer to us, the waves become compressed and hence the frequency of the wave increases.

Please help, I don’t get the question.

All you have to do is get the culmative effect of the forces by predicting the direction in which each object will move. Just write down what you know and put down questions for your teacher.

NASA sends an unmanned lander to test conditions on the surface of Mars. What is the magnitude of the gravitational force acting

kozerog [31]

Answer:

The magnitude of the gravitational force acting on the lander on the surface of Mars is 512.46 N.

Explanation:

The Universal law of gravity is define as:

$F = G \frac{M.m}{R^{2}}$ (1)

Where F is the gravitational force, G is gravitational constant, M is the mass of Mars, m is the mass of the lander and R is the radius of Mars.

Before replacing the values in equation 1 it is necessary to express the radius of mars in terms of meters:

R = $3397 kmx\frac{1000 m}{1 km}$ ⇒ R = $3397000 m$

Finally, equation 1 can be used:

$F = (6.67x10^{-11} N.m^{2}/Kg^{2}) \frac{(6.42x10^{23} kg)(138.1 kg)}{(3397000 m)^{2}}$

$F = 512.46 N$

Hence, the magnitude of the gravitational force acting on the lander on the surface of Mars is 512.46 N.
