If you draw the problem, it would look like that shown in the attached picture. The total length the ship will now travel can be solved using the Pythagorean theorem. The solution is as follows:

d = √(120)²+(100)²
d = 156.2 km

So, the ship will have to travel 156.2 km to the northwest direction.

Calculate the height from from which a body is released from rest if its velocity just before hitting the ground is30m\s
Kamila [148]

Answer:

height = 45 m

Explanation:

Initial velocity = 0 m/s

Final velocity = 30 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity = +10m/s^2 ( because ball is going down )

Using the eqn of motion

{v}^{2}  -  {u}^{2}  = 2gh

where v= final velocity ; u = initial velocity ; g = acceleration due to gravity ; h = height

So,

{30}^{2}  -  {0}^{2}  = 2 \times 10 \times h

=  > 20h = 900

=  > h =  \frac{900}{20}  = 45

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
