A seismograph located 1200 km from an earthquake detects seismic waves 5 minutes after the quake occurs. The seismograph oscilla
shepuryov [24]

To solve this problem we will apply the given relationship between wavelength, speed and frequency as well as the use of kinematic equations of motion description.

The wavelength is directly proportional to the speed and inversely proportional to the frequency, in other words,

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

Where

v = Velocity

f = Frequency

Speed is not given but if the distance traveled in a certain time, that is

v = \frac{d}{t}

Replacing

v = \frac{1200km}{5min}

v = \frac{240km}{min}(\frac{1min}{60s})(\frac{1000m}{1km})

v = 4000m/s

Substituting this value at our first equation we have

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

\lambda = \frac{4000}{2}

\lambda = 2000m

Therefore the wavelength of the seismic wave is 2000m

A bomb of mass 6kg initially at rest explodes into two fragments of masses 4kg and2kg respectively. If the greater mass moves wi
uysha [10]

Answer:

v = 10 [m/s].

Explanation:

The largest mass is that of 4 [kg], in this way the momentum can be calculated by means of the product of the mass by velocity.

P=m*v\\

where:

P = momentum [kg*m/s]

m = mass = 4 [kg]

v = velocity = 5 [m/s]

Now the momentum:

P=4*5\\P=20[kg*m/s]

This same momentum is equal for the other mass, in this way we can find the velocity.

P=m*v\\20=2*v\\v=10[m/s]

4. Explain the doppler effect. Be sure to talk about how the wave changes, the perceived change hear by a person that an emitted
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

4) The Doppler effect is the frequency change that occurs in a wave by the relative movement of the emitter and the observer

5) Sound originates from a repetitive movement of air molecules

6) The principle of stable superposition that if the medium complies with the elastic regime, the waves traveling in it can be added

Explanation:

4) The Doppler effect is the frequency change that occurs in a wave by the relative movement of the emitter and the observer. In the specific case of the fixed observer, each wave that is emitted travels at a constant speed, but as the emitter approaches the next wave lLa in less time, so the wave maxima are closer to each other

       v = λ’ f’

        λ‘=λ -Δλ = λ - vs / f

        f’= v / λ’ = v / (λ - vs / f) = v / (v / f - vs / f)

        f ‘= f v / (v-vs)

5) Sound originates from a repetitive movement of air molecules, this movement creates a longitudinal wave, which we call sound. It is characterized by the air volume module and its density

6) The principle of stable superposition that if the medium complies with the elastic regime, the waves traveling in it can be added

             y total = y₁ + y₂

Let's see as an example two waves of the same amplitude that travel in the same direction, if this wave the maximums coincide they add up obtaining that the maximums are twice the amplitude

If the wave goes in the most directive but the maximum of one coincides with the minimum in the other, the sum gives zero,

The wave travels in the opposite direction, in this case the resulting wave in constant in time and we call it resonance
