The speed of the Shinkansen is about 70 m/s ≈ 250 km/h

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Let's recall the Doppler Effect formula as follows:

\large {\boxed {f' = \frac{v + v_o}{v - v_s} f}}

<em>f' = observed frequency</em>

<em>f = actual frequency</em>

<em>v = speed of sound waves</em>

<em>v_o = velocity of the observer</em>

<em>v_s = velocity of the source</em>

<em>Let's tackle the problem!</em>

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

initial observed frequency = f'_1 = f

final observed frequency = f'_2 = ²/₃ f

speed of sound in air = v = 343 m/s <em>(assumption)</em>

velocity of the source = v_s = 0 m/s

<u>Asked:</u>

velocity of the observer = v_o = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>We will use the formula of </em><em>Doppler Effect.</em>

<em>As you approach the crossing,</em>

f'_1 = \frac{v + v_o}{v - v_s} \times f_s

f'_1 = \frac{v + v_o}{v - 0} \times f_s

f = \frac{v + v_o}{v} \times f_s → Equation 1

\texttt{ }

<em>As you recede from the crossing,</em>

f'_2 = \frac{v - v_o}{v + v_s} \times f_s

f'_2 = \frac{v - v_o}{v + 0} \times f_s

\frac{2}{3}f = \frac{v - v_o}{v} \times f_s → Equation 2

\texttt{ }

Next, we will solve the two equations above by dividing them

( Equation 1 ÷ Equation 2 ):

f : \frac{2}{3}f = (\frac{v + v_o}{v} \times f_s) : (\frac{v - v_o}{v} \times f_s)

1 : \frac{2}{3} = (v + v_o) : (v - v_o)

3 : 2 = (v + v_o) : (v - v_o)

2(v + v_o) = 3(v - v_o)

2v + 2v_o = 3v - 3v_o

3v_o + 2v_o = 3v - 2v

5v_o = v

v_o = \frac{1}{5}v

v_o = \frac{1}{5}(343)

v_o \approx 70 \texttt{ m/s}

v_o \approx 250 \texttt{ km/h}

\texttt{ }

Answer: 68.6 m/s

Explanation:

We have the following data:

u is the speed of the train

v=343 m/s is the speed of sound in air

f is the frequency of the source of sound (the stationary signal)

f' is the required frequency

Now, this can be expressed mathematically as follows:

When the train approaches the source of sound the frequency is f:

f=(1+\frac{u}{v}) f' (1)

When the train recedes the source of sound the frequency is \frac{2}{3}f:

\frac{2}{3}f=(1-\frac{u}{v}) f' (2)

Let's divide (1) by (2) to simplify and the find u:

\frac{3}{2}=\frac{1+\frac{u}{v}}{1-\frac{u}{v}} (3)

Isolating u:

u=\frac{v}{5} (4)

u=\frac{343 m/s}{5} (5)

Finally:

u=68.6 m/s This is the speed of the train

How could you tell whether or not you are in a magnetic feild
Aleks04 [339]
Magnetic fields are areas where an object exhibits a magnetic influence. The fields affect neighboring objects along things called magnetic field lines. A magnetic object can attract or push away another magnetic object. You also need to remember that magnetic forces are NOT related to gravity. The amount of gravity is based on an object's mass, while magnetic strength is based on the material that the object is made of.

The frequency of a microwave is 1.2 x 10^9 hertz. what is the wavelength of the given problem.
Olenka [21]

Answer:

0.25 m

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillations of the electric and the magnetic field, oscillating in a plane perpendicular to the direction of motion the wave.

All electromagnetic waves travel in a vacuum always at the same speed, the speed of light, whose value is:

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s

Microwave is an example of electromagnetic waves.

The relationship between wavelength and frequency for an electromagnetic wave is:

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}

where

\lambda is the wavelength

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s  is the speed of light

f is the frequency

For the microwave in this problem,

f=1.2\cdot 10^9 Hz

So its wavelength is

\lambda=\frac{3.0\cdot 10^8}{1.2\cdot 10^9}=0.25 m

A person jogs for 4.0 km in 32 mins,then 2.0km in 22mins,and finallu 1.0 km in 16 mins.whqt is the joggers average speed in km p
blondinia [14]

Average speed = (total distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)

total distance covered = (4km + 2km + 1km) = 7 km

time to cover the distance = (32min + 22min + 16min) = 70 min

Average speed = (7 km) / (70 min)

Average speed = 0.1 km/minute
