A car approaches you at a constant speed, sounding its horn, and you hear a frequency of 76 Hz. After the car goes by, you hear

a frequency of 65 Hz. What is the frequency of the sound emitted by the horn

Answer:

70.07 Hz

Explanation:

Since the sound is moving away from the observer then

f_o = f_s\frac {(v+vs)}{v} and f_o = f_s\frac {(v-vs)}{v} when moving towards observer

With f_o of 76 then taking speed in air as 343 m/s we have

76 = f_s\times\frac {(343-vs)}{343}

f_s=\frac {343\times 76}{343-v_s}

Similarly, with f_o of 65 we have

65 = f_s\times\frac {(343+vs)}{343}\\f_s=\frac {343\times 65}{343+v_s}

Now

f_s=\frac {343\times 65}{343+v_s}=\frac {343\times 76}{343-v_s}

v_s=27.76 m/s

Substituting the above into  any of the first two equations then we obtain

f_s=70.07 Hz

A stretched spring has 5184 J of elastic potential energy and a spring constant of 16,200 N/m. What is the displacement of the s
yawa3891 [41]

Hello!

A stretched spring has 5184 J of elastic potential energy and a spring constant of 16,200 N/m. What is the displacement of the spring ?

Data:

E_{pe}\:(elastic\:potential\:energy) = 5184\:J

K\:(constant) = 16200\:N/m

x\:(displacement) =\:?

For a spring (or an elastic), the elastic potential energy is calculated by the following expression:

E_{pe} = \dfrac{k*x^2}{2}

Where k represents the elastic constant of the spring (or elastic) and x the deformation or displacement suffered by the spring.

Solving:  

E_{pe} = \dfrac{k*x^2}{2}

5184 = \dfrac{16200*x^2}{2}

5184*2 = 16200*x^2

10368 = 16200\:x^2

16200\:x^2 = 10368

x^{2} = \dfrac{10368}{16200}

x^{2} = 0.64

x = \sqrt{0.64}

\boxed{\boxed{x = 0.8\:m}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

Answer:  

The displacement of the spring = 0.8 m

What are loops of gas on sun that link different parts of sunspot regions together?
love history [14]
So we want to know what are loops of gas on the Sun that link different parts of sunspot regions together. A large and bright gaseous feature that extends from the surface of the Sun that links different parts of sunspot regions together is called Prominence. They are on the Suns surface in the photosphere and they extend outwards into the Corona.

How does the mass of an object affect its acceleration during free fall
ira [324]

The mass of an object has no effect whatsoever on the object's
acceleration during free-fall.  If there is no air resistance to interfere
with the natural effects of gravity, then a feather and a battleship ...
dropped at the same time ... fall together, and hit the ground at the
same time.

What is the difference between a circuit and a current?
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

a circuit is a complete loop that carries a current in the form of electrons from negative to positive

Explanation:

The difference between current and circuit is that a circuit is a complete loop that carries a current in the form of electrons from negative to positive .

In a circuit, there are difference elements or components such as the battery, wire, resistor. The goal of a circuit arrangement is to completely carry current from one end to another.

The current is the quantity of charge that flows within the circuit per unit of time.

So, the battery supplies the electromotive force to move the current round the circuit.
