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

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The maximum temperature rise = 0.047 °C

Explanation:

Potential Energy, P = mgh

Energy transfered, Q=mcΔT

Potential energy  = Energy transfered

mgh = mcΔT

gh = cΔT

ΔT = gh/c

ΔT = (9.81 * 20) / 4186

ΔT = 0.047 °C

A car accelerates uniformly from rest at a speed of 1.67 ft s^2 over a distance of 5 yards.What is the acceleration of a car?
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

a= 17.69 m/s^2

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

A car accelerates uniformly from rest to 23 m/s

u= 0m/s

v= 23m/s

distance= 30m

Step two:

We know that

acceleration= velocity/time

also,

velocity= distance/time

23= 30/t

t= 30/23

t= 1.30 seconds

hence

acceleration= 23/1.30

accelaration= 17.69 m/s^2

Acceleration of gravity on jupiter
Viefleur [7K]

The acceleration of gravity on Jupiter is listed as  <em>24.79 m/s²</em> .

That's roughly  2.53  times its value on Earth.  So if you weigh, let's say,
130 pounds on Earth, then you would weigh about 328 pounds on Jupiter.

Part A.)Six boxes held at rest against identical walls.
krok68 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

When a body is held against a vertical wall , to keep them in balanced position , normal force is applied on their surface . this force creates normal reaction which acts against the normal force and it is equal to the normal force as per newton's third law . Ultimately friction force is created which is proportional to normal force and it acts in vertically upward direction . It prevents the body from falling down .

Hence normal force = reaction force .

From second law also net force is zero , so if  normal force is N and reaction force is R

R - N = mass x acceleration = mass x 0 = 0

R = N .

Ranking normal force from  highest  to smallest

150 N , 130 N , 120 N

B )

Frictional force is equal to the weight of the body because the body is held at rest .

Ranking of frictional force form largest to smallest

7 kg , 5 kg , 3 kg , 1 kg .

Here frictional force is irrespective of the normal force acting on the body  because frictional force adjusts itself so that it becomes equal to weight in all cases here because it always balances the weight of the body .
