When the police car is moving towards you, the sound waves are more compressed together, leading to a higher pitch sound. This is according to the Doppler Effect, in which sound waves ahead of the object is more compressed, leading to a higher pitch, and more spread out behind, leading to a lower pitch.

hope this helps

How do the amplitudes of a 120 decibel sound and a 100-decibel sound compare?​
NemiM [27]
The 120 decibel sound has more amplitude than the 100 decibel sound.

In Physics, the relation between amplitude and intensity is that the intensity of the wave is directly proportional to the square of its amplitude.

two 2.5 kg balls move away from each other one traveling 3 m/s to the right the other 4 m/s to the left what is the magnitude of
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

2.5 kg.m/s

Explanation:

Taking left side as positive while right side direction as negative then

Momentum, p= mv where m is the mass of the object and v is the velocity of travel

Momentum for ball moving towards right side=mv=2.5*-3=-7.5 kg.m/s

Momentum for the ball moving towards the left side=mv=2.5*4=10 kg.m/s

Total momentum=-7.5 kg.m/s+10 kg.m/s=2.5 kg.m/s

GUESS WHAT? I'LL MAKE YOU BRAINLIEST! EASY QUESTION!!
avanturin [10]

Here are the 2 reasons:

- Sun damages the eyes

Long-term, unprotected exposure to ultraviolet light from the sun can damage the retina. The retina is the back of the eye, where the rods and cones make visual images, which are then sent to the visual centers in the brain. Damage from exposure to sunlight can also cause the development of cloudy bumps along the edge of the cornea, which can then grow over the cornea and prevent clear vision. UV light is also a factor in the development of cataracts.

- Heat Exhaustion

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), heat exhaustion is the body’s response to excessive loss of water and salt, usually through excessive sweating. People working in a hot environment are at risk of heat exhaustion.

A golf club with 65J of kinetic energy strikes a stationary golf ball with a mass of 46g. The energy transfer is only 20% effici
umka21 [38]
Kinetic energy of golf club = 65J, 
kinetic energy supplied to golf ball = 20% of 65 = 0.2 * 65 = 13J,
kinetic energy of ball = [mass * Velocity²]/2,
mass = 46gm = 0.046Kg,
[0.046 * V²]/2 = 13, or 0.046 *V² = 26, 
V² = 26/0.046 = 565.22, 
V = 23.77 m/sec = initial velocity of golf ball after hitting.
