Answer:

Option (C)

Explanation:

Flash flood refers to the sudden flood that occurs in a particular area due to the heavy and excessive amount of rainfall, often accompanied by thunderstorms within a few hours. It releases a huge amount of water due to the failure of natural levee as well dam. They are very devastating. During flash flood, the water exerts a massive force which can make vehicles float over water. The <u>six inches of water</u> that flows over an area has the capacity to lift the tyres of small vehicles and carry hem further away.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Not enough information.

IF we ASSUME she wants the car to be at LAUNCH LEVEL after 1 second of flight.

THEN

The highest point will have zero vertical velocity and will have taken ½ second to get there. This means that the initial vertical velocity was

v = gt

vy₀ = 9.8(0.5)

vy₀ = 4.9 m/s

vsinθ = vy₀

v = vy₀/sinθ

v = 4.9/sin32

v = 9.2466...

v = 9.2 m/s

A child is swinging back and forth with a constant period and amplitude. Somewhere in front of the child, a stationary horn is e
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

  We shall apply concept of Doppler's effect of apparent frequency to this problem . Here observer is moving sometimes towards and sometimes away from the source . When observer moves towards the source , apparent frequency is more than real frequency and when the observer moves away from the source , apparent frequency is less than real frequency . The apparent frequency depends upon velocity of observer . The formula for apparent frequency when observer is going away is as follows .

f = f₀ ( V - v₀ ) / V , f is apparent , f₀ is real frequency , V is velocity of sound and v is velocity of observer .

f will be lowest when v₀ is highest .

velocity of observer is highest when he is at the equilibrium position or at middle point .

So apparent frequency is lowest when observer is at the middle point and going away from the source  while swinging to and from before the source of sound .
