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 proton with an initial speed of 600,000 m/s is brought to rest by an electric field. Part A Part complete Did the proton move
rodikova [14]

Answer: Part A the right sentence is: Because the proton is a positive charge and it slows down as it travels, it must be moving from a region of lower potential to a region of higher potential

Part B.  aproximatelly 98 times ΔV  V

Part C. the initial kinetic energy of the proton is 1.87 10^3 eV

Explanation: Part A. The field stops the proton so the lines of electric fild must be directed in opposite direction of its movement. This means that the proton moves to a higher potential. Part B The kinetic energy of the  is transformed  in electric potenctial for the proton.

Part C. Energy in J divide the charge of electron gives the energy  in eV.

A 6 N and a 10 N force act on an object. The moment arm of the 6 N force is 0.2 m. If the 10 N force produces five times the tor
Levart [38]

Answer:

The moment arm is 0.6 m

Explanation:

Given that,

First force F_{1}=6\ N

Second force F_{2}=10\ N

Distance r = 0.2 m

We need to calculate the moment arm

Using formula of torque

\tau=Force\times lever\ arm

So, Here,

\tau_{2}=5 \tau_{1}

We know that,

The torque is the product of the force and distance.

Put the value of torque in the equation

F_{2}\times d_{2}=5\times F_{1}\times r_{1}

r_{2}=\dfrac{5\times F_{1}\times r_{1}}{F_{2}}

Where, F_{1}=First force

F_{1}=First force

F_{2}=Second force

r_{1}= distance

Put the value into the formula

r_{2}=\dfrac{5\times6\times0.2}{10}

r_{2}=0.6\ m

Hence, The moment arm is 0.6 m

A car moving at 60 mph slams on its brakes to stop before hitting a deer. Another identical car traveling at 60 mph slows to a s
ankoles [38]

Happy Holidays!

Recall that:

Impulse = Change in Momentum = mass × change in velocity

Since both cars are identical and have the same initial velocity of 60 mph, them breaking to a stop means that they both experience the same change in velocity.

Thus, both of the cars' impulses are equal.
