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.

Suppose we wrap a string around the surface of a uniform cylinder of radius 38.0 cm that is supported by an axle passing through
liraira [26]

Answer:

Angular acceleration = 23.68 rad / s²

Explanation:

Given that,

acceleration = 9m/s²

Therefore acceleration of string is 9m/s²

since string is constant in length

cylinder of radius 38.0 cm = 0.38m

Angular acceleration = a / r

Angular acceleration = 9 / 0.38

                                   = 23.68 rad / s²

Angular acceleration = 23.68 rad / s²

A 57-kg woman holds a 6-kg package as she stands within an elevator which briefly accelerates upward at a rate of 0.15g. Determi
Temka [501]

Answer:

R = 710.7N

L = 67.689 N

During gravity fall L = R = 0 N

Explanation:

So the acceleration that the elevator is acting on the woman (and the package) in order to result in a net acceleration of 0.15g is

g + 0.15g = 1.15g

The force R that the elevator exerts on her feet would be product of acceleration and total mass (Newton's 2nd law):

a(m + M) = 1.15g(57 + 6) = 1.15*9.81*63 = 710.7N

The force L that she exerts on the package would be:

am = 1.15g *6 = 1.15*9.81*6 = 67.689N

When the system is falling, all have a net acceleration of g. So the acceleration that the elevator exerts on the woman (and the package) is 0, and so are the forces L and R.

Give at least one fact about subatomic particles
victus00 [196]

Answer:

- Particles smaller than atoms are called subatomic particles .

- There are three famous subatomic particles, proton, neutron and electron .

- The study of sub atomic particles are called particle physics

- These particles can be divided as Brayons and Leptons

- These particles are often held together by one of the four fundamental particles ( Weak force, strong force, electromagnetic force, gravitational force).

A circuit is set up such that it has a current of 8 A. What would be the new current if the resistance was increased by a factor
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

The relationship between current, voltage and resistance in a circuit is given by Ohm's law:

V=RI

where

V is the voltage

R is the resistance

I is the current

The equation can also be rewritten as

I=\frac{V}{R}

from which we see that the current is inversely proportional to the resistance, R.

In this problem, the initial current is I = 8 A. Then the resistance is doubled:

R ' = 2R

So the new current is

I'=\frac{V}{R'}=\frac{V}{2R}=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{V}{R})=\frac{I}{2}=4 A

so the current is halved.
