We assume that horn releases sound of constant frequency. In order for observer to observe different frequency either horn or observer or both must move.

This happens due to Doppler effect. It states that when position of source of sound and observer relative to each other changes, the observed frequency also changes. If the source emits sound of constant frequency than observed frequency will be either higher or lower than original.

When distance between source and observer increases the observed frequency will be lower. This is because same number of sound waves must cover greater distance so they have greater wavelength.
When distance between source and observer decreases the observed frequency will be higher. This is because same number of sound waves must cover smaller distance so they have smaller wavelength. 

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional meaning when one increases the other drecreases.

From this explanation we can find answer for our question. <span>If we wanted the pitch of a horn to drop relative to an observer we need to move horn away from an observer.</span>

0.250 moles of gas are in a piston.The gas does 109 J of work while 240 J of heat are added. What is the change in internal ener
irina [24]

Answer:

+131Joules

Explanation:

Energy can be expressed using below expresion.

ΔE = (q + w).........eqn(1)

q will be + be if heat is gained hence, q= 240 J

work "w" will be - ve if work is done by the system, hence w= -109 J

Then substitute into eqn(1)

Change in Internal energy=

= (240 -109 )

= +131J

For a caffeinated drink with a caffeine mass percent of 0.65% and a density of 1.00 g/mL, how many mL of the drink would be requ
slava [35]

Explanation:

First we will convert the given mass from lb to kg as follows.

        157 lb = 157 lb \times \frac{1 kg}{2.2046 lb}

                   = 71.215 kg

Now, mass of caffeine required for a person of that mass at the LD50 is as follows.

         180 \frac{mg}{kg} \times 71.215 kg

         = 12818.7 mg

Convert the % of (w/w) into % (w/v) as follows.

      0.65% (w/w) = \frac{0.65 g}{100 g}

                           = \frac{0.65 g}{(\frac{100 g}{1.0 g/ml})}

                           = \frac{0.65 g}{100 ml}

Therefore, calculate the volume which contains the amount of caffeine as follows.

   12818.7 mg = 12.8187 g = \frac{12.8187 g}{\frac{0.65 g}{100 ml}}

                       = 1972 ml

Thus, we can conclude that 1972 ml of the drink would be required to reach an LD50 of 180 mg/kg body mass if the person weighed 157 lb.

If Steve throws the football 50 meters in 3 seconds, what is the average speed of the football? Speed = distance / time Question
leva [86]

Answer:

A. 16.67 m/s

Explanation:

Speed or velocity refers to the rate of change in distance over a change in time. That is;

Speed = Distance ÷ time

Where;

Speed is in metre/seconds

Distance is in metre

Time is in seconds.

In this question, Steve throws a football 50 meters in 3 seconds. The average speed can be calculated this:

S = D/t

Where; d = 50m, t = 3s

S = 50/3

S = 16.6666666

S = 16.67m/s
