Answer: f ≈ 8.5Hz

Explanation: The phenomenon known as <u>Doppler</u> <u>Shift</u> is characterized as a change in frequency when one observer is stationary and the source emitting the frequency is moving or when both observer and source are moving.

For a source moving and a stationary observer, to determine the frequency:

f_{0} = f_{s}.\frac{c}{c-v_{s}}

where:

f_{0} is frequency of observer;

f_{s} is frequency of source;

c is the constant speed of sound c = 340m/s;

v_{s} is velocity of source;

Rearraging for frequency of source:

f_{0} = f_{s}.\frac{c}{c-v_{s}}

f_{s} = f_{0}.\frac{c-v_{s}}{c}

Replacing and calculating:

f_{s} = 9.(\frac{340-20}{340})

f_{s} = 9.(0.9412)

f_{s} = 8.5

<u>Frequency the horns emit is 8.5Hz.</u>

Two coils of wire are placed close together. Initially, a current of 3.04 A exists in one of the coils, but there is no current
Alchen [17]

Answer:

M=0.0247H

Explanation:

Given data

V_{voltage}=4.29V\\I_{current}=3.04A\\t_{time}=1.75*10^{-2}s

To find

Mutual inductance of the two-coil system

Solution

The mutual inductance given as:

M= (-VΔt)/ΔI

Substitute the given values

So

M=-\frac{4.29V*1.75*10^{-2}s}{(0-3.04A)}\\ M=0.0247H

.A particle starts on the origin. It is pushed back to -5.7 m in 2.1 s. Then it is pushed
harina [27]

Answer: The average velocity is -0.965m/s

Explanation: The first step is to calculate the two velocities is both directions. A velocity is a distance per unit time.

V=d/ t

=-5.7/2.1

=-2.7m/s

For the other direction the velocity is

V=7.3/9.5

=0.77m/s

The average velocity the add the velocities and divide them by 2.

V=-2.7+0.77/2

V= 0.965m/s
