A woman stands at rest in front of a large, smooth wall. She holds a vibrating tuning fork of frequency Initial: fo directly in

front of her (between her and the wall).
(a) The woman now runs toward the wall with speed Pw, She detects beats due to the interference between the sound waves reaching her directly from the fork

Note: If the beat frequency is too large, the woman may have to use some instrumentation other than her e reaching her after being reflected from the wall. How many beats per second will she detect?

Answer:

(a) f_{o}*\frac{2P_{w} }{v - P_{w} }

(b) f_{o}*\frac{2P_{w} }{v + P_{w} }

Explanation:

(a) In the given problem, the turning fork has a frequency of f_{o}. Then, a woman runs toward the wall with a speed of P_{w}. From the principle of light reflection, the reflection of the sound from the fork reach the woman at a speed of v. Thus, the beat frequency is:

f_{o}*\frac{2P_{w} }{v - P_{w} }

(b) In this part, the woman moves away from the water which is in contrast to part (a). Thus the beat frequency is:

f_{o}*\frac{2P_{w} }{v + P_{w} }

Toon Train is traveling at the speed of 10 m/s at the top of a hill. Five seconds later it reaches the bottom of the hill and is
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

the rate of acceleration of the train is 4 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the train, u = 10 m/s

change in time of motion, dt = 5 s

final velocity of the train, v = 30 m/s

The rate of acceleration of the train is calculated as;

a = \frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{v-u}{dt} = \frac{30-10}{5} = \frac{20}{5} = 4 \ m/s^2

Therefore, the rate of acceleration of the train is 4 m/s²
