To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Doppler Effect. The Doppler effect is the change in the perceived frequency of any wave movement when the emitter, or focus of waves, and the receiver, or observer, move relative to each other.

Mathematically it can be described as

v' = v (\frac{f' ( v - v_{bat}) - f ( v + v_{bat})}{f'(v-v_{bat}) + f ( v + v_{bat})})

Where,

v = Speed of sound

f' = Reflected frequency

f = Emitted Frequency

v_{bat} = Speed of the object

Assuming that the speed of the medium is the speed of sound of 343m / s, we will then have that:

v' = 343 (\frac{(83.5) (343 -3.9) - 80.2(343+3.9)}{83.5(343-3.9) + 80.2(343+4.3)})

v' = 3.0134m/s

A 0.15 kg ball is moving with a velocity of<br> 35 m/s. Find the momentum of the ball.
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

<h2>5.25 kg.m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

momentum = mass × velocity

From the question we have

momentum = 0.15 × 35

We have the final answer as

<h3>5.25 kg.m/s</h3>

Hope this helps you

A light spring having a force constant of 115 N/m is used to pull a 9.00 kg sled on a horizontal frictionless ice rink. The sled
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Stretch in the spring = 0.1643 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the sled (m) = 9 kg

Acceleration of the sled (a) = 2.10 m/s ²

Spring constant (k) = 115 N/m

Computation:

Tension force in the spring  (T) = ma

Tension force in the spring  (T) = 9 × 2.10

Tension force in the spring  (T) = 18.9 N

Tension force in the spring = Spring constant (k) × Stretch in the spring

18.9 N = 115 N  × Stretch in the spring

Stretch in the spring = 18.9 / 115

Stretch in the spring = 0.1643 (Approx)

A neutral atom as the same number of protons and electrons.
ZanzabumX [31]

That is correct. Or so I believe. Either more or less than the other on the amount of protons and electrons, you can get either an unstable or a stable atom of an element.
