Answer:

\Delta v=5.77m/s

Explanation:

Newton's 2nd Law relates the net force <em>F</em> on an object of mass <em>m </em>with the acceleration <em>a</em> it experiments by <em>F=ma.</em> In our case the net force is the friction force, since it's the only one the skier is experimenting horizontally and the vertical ones cancel out since he's not moving in that direction. Our acceleration then will be:

a=\frac{F}{m}

Also, acceleration is defined by the change of velocity \Delta v in a given time t, so we have:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}

Since we want the change in velocity, <em>mixing both equations</em> we conclude that:

\Delta v=at=\frac{Ft}{m}

Which for our values means:

\Delta v=\frac{Ft}{m}=\frac{(25N)(15s)}{(65Kg)}=5.77m/s

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

<em>a. The frequency with which the waves strike the hill is 242.61 Hz</em>

<em>b. The frequency of the reflected sound wave is 254.23 Hz</em>

<em>c. The beat frequency produced by the direct and reflected sound is  </em>

<em>    11.62 Hz</em>

Explanation:

Part A

The car is the source of our sound, and the frequency of the sound wave it emits is given as 231 Hz. The speed of sound given can be used to determine the other frequencies, as expressed below;

f_{1} = f[\frac{v_{s} }{v_{s} -v} ] ..............................1

where f_{1} is the frequency of the wave as it strikes the hill;

f is the frequency of the produced by the horn of the car = 231 Hz;

v_{s} is the speed of sound = 340 m/s;

v is the speed of the car = 36.4 mph

Converting the speed of the car from mph to m/s we have ;

hint (1 mile = 1609 m, 1 hr = 3600 secs)

v = 36.4 mph *\frac{1609 m}{1 mile} *\frac{1 hr}{3600 secs}

v = 16.27 m/s

Substituting into equation 1 we have

f_{1} =  231 Hz (\frac{340 m/s}{340 m/s - 16.27 m/s})

f_{1}  = 242.61 Hz.

Therefore, the frequency which the wave strikes the hill is 242.61 Hz.

Part B

At this point, the hill is the stationary point while the driver is the observer moving towards the hill that is stationary. The frequency of the sound waves reflecting the driver can be obtained using equation 2;

f_{2} = f_{1} [\frac{v_{s}+v }{v_{s} } ]

where f_{2} is the frequency of the reflected sound;

f_{1}  is the frequency which the wave strikes the hill = 242.61 Hz;

v_{s} is the speed of sound = 340 m/s;

v is the speed of the car = 16.27 m/s.

Substituting our values into equation 1 we have;

f_{2} = 242.61 Hz [\frac{340 m/s+16.27 m/s }{340 m/s } ]

f_{2}  = 254.23 Hz.

Therefore, the frequency of the reflected sound is 254.23 Hz.

Part C

The beat frequency is the change in frequency between the frequency of the direct sound  and the reflected sound. This can be obtained as follows;

Δf = f_{2} -  f_{1}  

The parameters as specified in Part A and B;

Δf = 254.23 Hz - 242.61 Hz

Δf  = 11.62 Hz

Therefore the beat frequency produced by the direct and reflected sound is 11.62 Hz

Finger [1]
1) metal
Even though metalloids are also conductors of heat and electricity, malleable they are not as good as metals.
Metals are very good conductors of electricity and heat. They are also very hard to touch. Noble gases and non metals are the exact opposite in physical and chemical properties. Metals readily react with oxygen.
