What is the frequency heard by a person driving at 15 m/s toward a factory whistle emitting a

Physics
1 answer:
zmey [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

835.29 Hz

Explanation:

When moving towards the source of sound, frequency will be given by

f*=f(vd+v)/v

Where f is the freqiency of the source, vd is the driving speed, v is the speed of sound in air, f* is the inkown frequency when moving forward.

Substituting 800 Hz for f, 340 m/s for v and 15 m/s for vd then

f*=800(15+340)/340=835.29411764704 Hz

Rounded off, the frequency is approximately 835.29 Hz

Two charged spheres are 20cm apart and exert an attractive force of 6x10^-9 N on each other. What will be the force of attractio
Travka [436]
The force of attraction between 2 charged spheres can be explained by Coulomb's law,
It states the force of attraction is directly proportional to the magnitudes of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the charges.

/F =  \frac{k q_{1}  q_{2} }{ r^{2} }
where F - force of attraction/repulsion
q₁ and q₂ - charges of the 2 spheres 
k - Coulomb's law constant
r - distance between the spheres

In the question given, the charges of the spheres remain constant in both instances, only distance changes. Therefore (kq₁q₂) = c which is a constant 
then F = c / r²
first instance 
6 x 10⁻⁹ N = c/ (20 cm)² ---1)
F = c/(10 cm)² --- 2)
2) / 1)
\frac{F}{6* 10^{-9} } =  \frac{400}{100}
F = 6 x 10⁻⁹ x 4
F = 2.4 x 10⁻⁸ N

When the atom's electrons step down to lower energy levels in a thin cloud of hot gas, what is produced?
Reika [66]

Answer: The correct answer is an emission line spectrum.

Explanation:

When the electrons are excited to the higher energy level, the energy is absorbed in this case.

When the electrons in the atom step down to lower energy levels in a thin cloud of hot gas then the radiation will emit.

The electron will lose energy in this case in the form of radiation. There will be an emission line spectrum.

Can someone help me with accerleration
dangina [55]

Answer:

acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time. Accelerations are vector quantities. The orientation of an object's acceleration is given by the orientation of the net force acting on that object.

SI unit: m/s2, m·s−2, m s−2
