Answer:

Explanation:

E = mv² / 2

E = (1500kg)(2 m/s)² / 2

E = 6000 J / 2

E = 3000 J

Answer:

Explanation: The answer is B because the defining equation for kinetic energy is E=mv^2 / 2

e = (1500kg)(2 m/s)^2 / 2

e = 6000 J / 2

e = 3000 J = 3000 Joules

A car horn emits a frequency of 400 Hz. A car traveling at 20.0 m/s sounds the horn as it approaches a stationary pedestrian. Wh

Temka [501]

Answer:

The observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the source, Fs = 400 Hz

speed of the car as it approaches the stationary observer, Vs = 20 m/s

Based on Doppler effect, as the car the approaches the stationary observer, the observed frequency will be higher than the transmitted (source) frequency because of decrease in distance between the car and the observer.

The observed frequency is calculated as;

$F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\$

where;

F₀ is the observed frequency

v is the speed of sound in air = 340 m/s

$F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\400 = F_o [\frac{340}{20 + 340} ] \\\\400 = F_o (0.9444) \\\\F_o = \frac{400}{0.9444} \\\\F_o = 423.55 \ Hz \\$

F₀ ≅ 424 Hz.

Therefore, the observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.

What does it mean if the moon is waxing and waning

konstantin123 [22]

Both verbs come from Olde English.
That's why everybody clearly understood their meaning until
a hundred years ago, but nobody understands them now.

"Waxing" = growing

For two weeks after the New Moon, it's growing toward Full.
First it's a waxing crescent for a week, then it's waxing gibbous.

"Waning" = shrinking

For two weeks after the Full Moon, it's shrinking toward New.
First it's waning gibbous for a week, then it's a waning crescent.
