Answer:

The correct option is C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The initial speed of the rocket is  v_i = 100 m/s

    The speed of the rocket engine sound is V

    The final speed of the rocket is  v_f = 200 \ m/s

The speed of the sound at v_f would still remain V this because the speed of sound wave is constant and is not dependent on the speed of the observer(The mountain ) or the speed of the source (The rocket ).

  A clear example when  lightning strikes you will first see (that is because it travels at  the speed of light which is greater than the speed of sound) but it would take some time before you hear the sound of the   lightning

Here we see that the speed of the lightning(speed of sound) does not affect the speed of the sound it generates

A spring scale exerts a net force of 8.5 N on an object. What is the object's mass if it has an acceleration of
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

mass of the object is 2.18 kg

Explanation:

Given

Force (F) = 8.5 N = 8.5 kg.m/s^{2}

acceleration (a) = 3.9 m/s^{2}

Mass (m) = ?

We know that the newton's second law of motion gives the relation between mass of ab object. force acted upon and the amount the object is accelerated. It is expressed in the form of an equation:

F = ma

mass, m = F/a

               = \frac{8.5 kgms^{-2} }{3.9 ms^{-2} }

               = 2.18 kg

The students observe that the pitches of the sounds from the fire truck and the
Blababa [14]

So, option 3 or the ambulance sound waves have more waves and shorter wavelength is the correct reason for ambulance siren having higher pitch compared to fire truck siren

Explanation:

Pitch of any sound wave is determined as the clarity in frequency of notes or the number of times a cycle is repeated for a single second. So pitch is similar to frequency. And frequency is the measure of number of complete cycles in a second. So if the ambulance siren has higher pitch compared to siren of fire truck. Then this means the frequency of ambulance siren is greater than the fire truck siren. As the frequency is more, then from the given options, choice 3 is correct. The ambulance siren have more waves and shorter wavelength. As more the frequency or number of waves, lesser or shorter is the wavelength of sound wave from ambulance.
