Suppose that the ultrasound source placed on the mother's abdomen produces sound at a frequency 2 MHz (a megahertz is 10^610 ​6
ella [17]

Answer:

the maximum frequency observed is 2.0044 10⁶ Hz

Explanation:

This is a Doppler effect exercise. Where the emitter is still and the receiver is mobile, therefore the expression that describes the process is

          f ’= f_o \ ( \frac{v \pm  v_o}{v} )

the + sign is used when the observer approaches the source

typical speeds of a baby's heart stop are around 200 m / min

let's reduce to SI units

        v₀ = 200 m / min (1 min / 60 s) = 3.33 m / s

let's calculate

         f ’= 2 10⁶ (\frac{1500 \ \pm 3.33}{1500})  

         f ’= 2.0044 10⁶ Hz

         f ’= 1,9956 10⁶ Hz

therefore the maximum frequency observed is 2.0044 10⁶ Hz

An eagle is flying horizontally at a speed of 4.6 m/s when the fish in her talons wiggles loose and falls into the lake 4.2 m be
rewona [7]

Answer:

v = 9.07 m/s

the vertical component of the velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water is 9.07 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

An eagle is flying horizontally at a speed of 4.6 m/s

Initial horizontal velocity uh = 4.6 m/s

Initial vertical velocity uy = 0

Height to fall d = 4.2 m

Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

The final vertical velocity of the fish when it hits the water can be calculated using the equation of motion;

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

v^2 = uy^2 + 2gd

uy = 0

v^2 = 2gd

v = √(2gd)

Substituting the given values;

v = √(2×9.8×4.2)

v = 9.073036977771 m/s

v = 9.07 m/s

the vertical component of the velocity of the fish relative to the water when it hits the water is 9.07 m/s

A car that experiences no frictional force is started and caused to move. For the car to continue in that motion, the gas pedal
Masteriza [31]

1) Answer D not at all

The car is not experiencing any frictional force so that implies that there is no force acting on the car once it starts motion. So, according law of inertia, the car will continue to move and no other force is required.

Friction force is the resistance force that opposes the motion of any object. It arises due to the contact of surfaces.

2) Answer C none

There is no force on any spaceship moving far from any planet. So, according to law of inertia the spacecraft will continue to move at same speed.

Law of inertia states that any object keeps in the state of motion or rest unless a non zero external force is applied on it.
