Frequency of the wave is 2 per second

Explanation:

Frequency is the number of times waves pass at a particular point of time. Here, given time period = 3 s and number of waves that pass in 3 seconds = 6. Find the frequency of the wave per second.

Frequency is given by the formula

f = 1/T, where f is the frequency and T is the time period

For 3 seconds, frequency is 6

3 seconds ⇒ 6 waves

⇒ 1 second = 6/3 = 2 waves per second

Suppose that the weight (in pounds) of an airplane is a linear function of the amount of fuel (in gallons) in its tank. When car

Inessa [10]

Answer:

$W=2219pounds$

Explanation:

If the weight is a linear function of the amount of fuel, the following correlation is fulfilled :

$\frac{2153pounds-1999pounds}{46gallons-18gallons} = \frac{W-1999pounds}{58gallons-18galons}$

we solve the equation:

$W=2219pounds$

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

The density of water is 1.00 g/cm3. What is its density in kg/m3?

r-ruslan [8.4K]

1 g = 1 ÷ 1000 kg
= 0.001 kg

1 cm³ = 1 ÷ 100 ÷ 100 ÷ 100 m³
= 0.000001 m³

1 g/cm³ = 1 g / 1 cm³
= 0.001 kg / 0.000001 m³
= 1000 kg/m³

The density is 1000 kg/m³.

A spring in a pogo-stick is compressed 12 cm when a 40. kg girl stands on the stick. what is the force constant for the pogo-sti

il63 [147K]

Answer: It is the same amount of weight as the girl is putting on the pogo stick. When you are pushing something downward then gravity will push back with the equal amount of force.
