A fire engine is moving south at 35 m/s while blowing its siren at a frequency of 400 Hz.
vodomira [7]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Doppler effect. The Doppler effect is the change in the perceived frequency of any wave movement when the emitter, or focus of waves, and the receiver, or observer, move relative to each other. Mathematically it can be described as

f_d= f_s \frac{(v+v_d)}{(v-v_s)}

Here,

f_d=frequency received by detector

f_s=frequency of wave emitted by source

v_d=velocity of detector

v_s=velocity of source

v=velocity of sound wave

Replacing we have that,

f_d = 400(\frac{(343+18)}{(343-35)})

f_d=422 Hz

Therefore the frequencty that will hear the passengers is 422Hz

What type of mirror can produce both<br> converging and diverging rays?
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

A convex mirror is a diverging mirror (f is negative) and forms only one type of image. It is a case 3 image—one that is upright and smaller than the object, just as for diverging lenses.

Explanation:

hope this helps have a good night :)

A 7.7 kg sphere makes a perfectly inelastic collision with a second sphere initially at rest. The composite system moves with a
klemol [59]

Answer:

15.4 kg.

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

mu+m'u' = V(m+m').................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the first sphere, m' = mass of the second sphere, u = initial velocity of the first sphere, u' = initial velocity of the second sphere, V = common velocity of both sphere.

Given: m = 7.7 kg, u' = 0 m/s (at rest)

Let: u = x m/s, and V = 1/3x m/s

Substitute into equation 1

7.7(x)+m'(0) = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7x = 1/3x(7.7+m')

7.7 = 1/3(7.7+m')

23.1 = 7.7+m'

m' = 23.1-7.7

m' = 15.4 kg.

Hence the mass of the second sphere = 15.4 kg
