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

Determine the number of ways to throw two die and get the number 11, as well as the probability of getting 11.
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

1/18

Explanation:

The number of ways in which two die can be thrown is the sample space of the experiment

(1,1), (1,2) (1,3), (1,4) (1,5) (1,6)

(2,1), (2,2) (2,3), (2,4) (2,5) (2,6)

(3,1), (3,2) (3,3), (3,4) (3,5) (3,6)

(4,1), (4,2) (4,3), (4,4) (4,5) (4,6)

(5,1), (5,2) (5,3), (5,4) (5,5) (5,6)

(6,1), (6,2) (6,3), (6,4) (6,5) (6,6)

From here it can be seen that there are only two cases where the sum on the two die is 11 i.e., (6,5) and (5,6)

\text{Probability of getting 11}=\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}\\\Rightarrow \text{Probability of getting 11}=\frac{2}{36}\\\Rightarrow \text{Probability of getting 11}=\frac{1}{18}=0.056

∴ Probability of getting 11 is<u> 1/18</u>

Iron filings scattered around a magnet will be most strongly drawn toward the _____.
victus00 [196]
<span>The answer is towards <span>the poles. This is because, at the poles of the magnet, the magnetic field lines get closer together hence indicating that the magnetic force is stronger here. The fields are closest together at the center of the magnet and farthest at the outside side of the magnet. </span></span>
