A stone is thrown straight downward with a speed of 20 m/s from the top of a tall building. If the stone strikes the ground 3.0
Lady_Fox [76]
Do you remember this formula for the distance traveled while accelerated ?

<u>Distance = (initial speed) x (t)  plus  (1/2) x (acceleration) x (t²)</u>

I think this is exactly what we need for this problem.

initial speed = 20 m/s down
acceleration = 9.81 m/s² down
t = 3.0 seconds

Distance down = (20) x (3)  plus  (1/2) x (9.81) x (3)²

Distance = (60)  plus  (4.905) x (9)

Distance = (60)  plus  (44.145)  =  104.145 meters

Choice  <em>D)</em>  is the closest one.

netineya [11]
<span>You are given two cars, one in front of the other, that are traveling down the highway at 25 m/s. You are also given a frequency of 500 Hz of the car travelling behind it. You are asked what is the frequency heard by the driver of the lead car. This problem can be solved using the Doppler effect

sound frequency heard by the lead car = [(speed of sound + lead car velocity)/( speed of sound + behind car velocity)] * (sound of frequency of the behind car)
</span>sound frequency heard by the lead car = [(340 m/s + 25 m/s)/(340 m/s - 25 m/s)] * (500 Hz)
sound frequency heard by the lead car = 579 Hz

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

λ = 0.4 x 10⁻⁶ m = 400 nm

Explanation:

The relationship between frequency, wavelength and speed of an electromagnetic wave is given as follows:

c = f\lambda

where,

c = speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

f = frequency of the light wave = 7.5 x 10¹⁴ Hz

λ = wavelength of the light = ?

Therefore,

3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s = (7.5\ x\ 10^{14}\ Hz)\lambda\\\\\lambda = \frac{3\ x\ 10^8\ m/s}{7.5\ x\ 10^{14}\ Hz}

<u>λ = 0.4 x 10⁻⁶ m = 400 nm</u>
