Answer: velocity of the car is 113.33m/s

Explanation:

From Doppler effect,

in the case which the source is moving towards the observer at rest

f2 = v/(v-vs) *f1

where f2 is the final observed frequency

f1 is the initial observed frequency

v = 340m/s (speed of sound in air)

vs = velocity of the source of sound.

rearranging the above equation

f2*(v - vs) = f1* v

vs = (f1* v/f2) - v

but f1 = 80Hz

f2 = 60Hz

v = 340m/s

substituting,

vs = (80 x 340)/60 - 340

vs = 453.33 - 340

vs = 113.33m/s

velocity of the car is 113.33m/s

A(n) 30 kg boy rides a roller coaster. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . With what force does he press against the seat
forsale [732]

Answer:

Force, F = 187.42 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of boy, m = 30 kg

Acceleration due to gravity, a=9.8\ m/s^2

Radius of curvature of the roller coaster, r = 15 m

Speed of the car, v = 7.3 m/s

The force acting on the boy are force of gravity and the centripetal force. The net force acting on him is as follows :

F=mg-\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

F=m(g-\dfrac{v^2}{r})

F=30\times (9.8-\dfrac{(7.3)^2}{15})

F = 187.42 N

So, he press against the seat with a force is 187.42 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Compare the forces in a small nucleus to the forces in a large nucleus
pochemuha
The comparison of the forces in a small nucleus to the forces of a large one is the fact that they are capable of holding the protons and neutrons which made it no matter what their size may be. Therefore, as long as there is a nucleus, their forces can both hold together the two atoms tight.

A watering can is most likely measured in which metric unit
Iteru [2.4K]
A watering can is used to hold a water that we will use to water the plants. The water has both mass and volume. Two watering cans are most often different by the volume they contain. 

Many various units for volume are used but most often used unit is liter. In a metric system basic units are those such as meter, kilogram and liter while in imperial system units used are those such as foote, inch, pound and gallon.

Unit for volume in metric system is cubic meter. It is equal to a volume of a cube whose all sides measure 1m. This is equal to 1000L. For watering cans that contain several liters units used is decimeter cubed. 1dm^3 = 1L

A bucket of mass M (when empty) initially at rest and containing a mass of water is being pulled up a well by a rope exerting a
Naily [24]

Answer:

V=\dfrac{PT}{m}\ ln\dfrac{M+m}{M}-gT

Explanation:

Given that

Constant rate of leak =R

Mass at time T ,m=RT

At any time t

The mass = Rt

So the total mass in downward direction=(M+Rt)

Now force equation

(M+Rt) a =P- (M+Rt) g

a=\dfrac{P}{M+Rt}-g

We know that

a=\dfrac{dV}{dt}

\dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{P}{M+Rt}-g

\int_{0}^{V}V=\int_0^T \left(\dfrac{P}{M+Rt}-g\right)dt

V=\dfrac{P}{R}\ ln\dfrac{M+RT}{M}-gT

V=\dfrac{PT}{m}\ ln\dfrac{M+m}{M}-gT

This is the velocity of bucket at the instance when it become empty.
