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

What is the kinetic energy of a 750 kg car moving at 50.0 km h?
Step2247 [10]

The kinetic energy of a 750 kg car moving at 50.0 km h is  72300 joules.

Given,

mass of car (m)= 750 kg

speed of car (v)= 50 km/h

= 50 x 5/18

= 13.9 m/s

we know that kinetic energy= 1/2 x m x v*v

= 1/2 x 750 x 13.9 *13.9

= 72300 joules

so the kinetic energy is 72300 joules.

Energy is the capacity of an object to do work, and like work, energy's unit is the joule (J). Energy exists in many different forms, but the one we think of most often when we think of energy is kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is often thought of as the energy of motion because it is used to describe objects that are moving.

Why the efficiency of carnot engine is not 100%
SVEN [57.7K]

Well, actually a heat engine using the Carnot cycle whose cold reservoir is maintained at 0 K could in principle be 100% efficient, even if the hot reservoir was merely at the ambient temperature. Since it costs no energy at all to maintain a heat reservoir at the ambient temperature as long as you have a perfect thermal connection to a large thermal capacitor like your swimming pool or a nearby aquifer you’d have built a perpetual motion machine.
