As per doppler's Effect of sound we can say when subway is approaching the platform we will have

f_1 = f_o* \frac{v}{v- v_s}

12750 = f_o* \frac{340}{340 - v_s}

Similarly we can find the frequency when subway is passing away with same speed from us

f_2 = f_o* \frac{v}{v + v_s}

10750 * f_o* \frac{340}{340 + v_s}

now we can find the ratio of two

\frac{12750}{10750} = \frac{340 + v_s}{340 - v_s}

1.186*(340 - v_s) = 340 + v_s

403.26 - 1.186 v_s = 340 + v_s

63.26 = 2.186 v_s

v_s = \frac{63.26}{2.186}

v_s = 28.94 m/s

So the speed of subway is 28.94 m/s

Using examples, explain why the first and second Newton laws of motion are significant for living organisms.
Triss [41]

Answer:

1) Newton's first law of motion states an object will remain at rest or in uniform will be in uniform motion in a straight line unless a force acts on it

2) Newton's second law states the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the applied force acting on an object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object

Explanation:

1) With Newton's first law, we are able arrange things within a space and schedule meetings in time knowing that they will remain in place unless an external force changes their positions

2) An example of Newton's second law of motion is that small objects such as a ball are easily accelerated and can be given appreciable acceleration for flight by single, one time contact (such as kicking the ball) while larger objects such as a rock require sustained force application to change their location.

Let’s say you have a cart of some mass and when pushed with 10N of force, the cart accelerates at 5.0 m/s/s. If you were to push
Korolek [52]

Answer:

a. The acceleration would increase.

Explanation:

because we know that

F=ma

m= mass and a= acceleration

so Mass is same for the cart in any situation that's why only acceleration could increase.
