Answer: V = 15 m/s

Explanation:

As  stationary speed gun emits a microwave beam at 2.10*10^10Hz. It reflects off a car and returns 1030 Hz higher. The observed frequency the car will be experiencing will be addition of the two frequency. That is,

F = 2.1 × 10^10 + 1030 = 2.100000103×10^10Hz

Using doppler effect formula

F = C/ ( C - V) × f

Where

F = observed frequency

f = source frequency

C = speed of light = 3×10^8

V = speed of the car

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

2.100000103×10^10 = 3×10^8/(3×10^8 -V) × 2.1×10^10

2.100000103×10^10/2.1×10^10 = 3×108/(3×10^8 - V)

1.000000049 = 3×10^8/(3×10^8 - V)

Cross multiply

300000014.7 - 1.000000049V = 3×10^8

Collect the like terms

1.000000049V = 14.71429

Make V the subject of formula

V = 14.71429/1.000000049

V = 14.7 m/s

The speed of the car is 15 m/s approximately.

Un lote de construcción rectangular mide 100 metros por 150 metros. Calcula el área de este lote en yardas cuadradas.
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: 17939.74 yards

Explanation:

Given , A rectangular measures 100 meters by 150 meters

To find : Area of rectangle.

Formula :

Area of rectangle = Length x width

Here, let length = 100 meters and width = 150 meters

Then, Area of rectangle = 100 meters x 150 meters = 15,000 square meters

Also , 1 meter = 1.09361 yards

Then, Area of rectangle = 15,000 x 1.09361 x 1.09361 square yards

= 17939.7424815 square yards

≈ 17939.74 yards

Hence, the area of rectangle is 17939.74 yards .
