A 12.0 kg rock slides off the edge of a bridge and falls into the water 25.0 meters below. what is the kinetic energy of the roc

k just as it hits the water?
Physics

During the fall, all the initial potential energy of the rock 
U=mgh
has converted into kinetic energy of motion
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
where h is the initial height of the rock, m its mass, and v its velocity just before hitting the water. So, for energy conservation, we have
U=K
and so we can find the value of K, the kinetic energy of the rock just before hitting the ground:
K=U=mgh = (12.0 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(25.0 m)=2943 J

A stationary siren on a firehouse is blaring at 81Hz. Assume the speed of sound to be 343m/s. What is the frequency perceived by
inn [45]

For a stationary siren on a firehouse is blaring at 81Hz. Assume the speed of sound to be 343m/s, the frequency perceived  is mathematically given as'

F=81.721Hz

<h3>What is the frequency perceived by a firefighter racing toward the station at 11km/h?</h3>

Generally, the equation for the doppler effect  is mathematically given as

F'=\frac{vs+v}{vs}*f

Therefore

F=81(343+3.05556)/343

F=81.721Hz

In conclusion, the frequency is

F=81.721Hz
