In one of the original Doppler experiments, a tuba was played at a frequency of 64.0 Hz on a moving flat train car, and a second

identical tuba played the same tone while at rest in the railway station. What beat frequency was heard in the station if the train car approached the station at a speed of 8.50 m/s?

Answer:

$f_{beat} = 1.64\ Hz$

Explanation:

given,

frequency of tuba.f = 64 Hz

Speed of train approaching, v = 8.50 m/s

beat frequency = ?

using Doppler's effect formula

$f' = f(\dfrac{v}{v-v_s})$

v_s is the velocity of the source

v is the speed of sound, v = 340 m/s

now,

$f' = 64\times (\dfrac{340}{340 - 8.50})$

f' = 65.64 Hz

now, beat frequency is equal to

$f_{beat} = f' - f$

$f_{beat} = 65.64 - 64$

$f_{beat} = 1.64\ Hz$

hence, beat frequency is equal to 1.64 Hz

w strong are you? Could you turn a moving car with just your own strength? No way! If a normal driver inputs about 50 N of force

malfutka [58]

The mechanical advantage of a simple machine is the measure of its amplified force gain.

The mechanical advantage is defined as the force amplified by a machine to the force required to generate such output.

$Mathematically\ mechanical\ advantage\ MA=\frac{F_{o}} {F_{i}}$

$F_{o} \ and\ F_{i}$ are the amplified force and applied force. We may also consider them as output and input force.

In the given question, the force given to the steering wheel is 50 N.

The output force produced by the steering wheel is 3750 N.

Hence the mechanical advantage will be-

$MA=\frac{F_{o}} {F_{i}}$

$=\frac{3750\ N}{50\ N}$

$=75$ [ans]

The CERN particle accelerator is circular with a circumference of 7.0 km.

Contact [7]

Answer:

$a_c=2.0196\times 10^{13}\ m/s^2$

$F=3.37273\times 10^{-14}\ N$

Explanation:

m = Mass of proton = $1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg$

v = Speed of proton = 0.5c = $0.5\times 3\times 10^8=1.5\times 10^8\ m/s$

Circumference of the colider is 7 km

$P=2\pi r\\\Rightarrow r=\frac{P}{2\pi}\\\Rightarrow r=\frac{7000}{2\pi}\ m$

$a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow a_c=\frac{\left(1.5\times 10^8\right)^2}{\frac{7000}{2\pi}}\\\Rightarrow a_c=2.0196\times 10^{13}\ m/s^2$

Centripetal acceleration is $2.0196\times 10^{13}\ m/s^2$

$F_c=ma_c\\\Rightarrow F_c=1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 2.0196\times 10^{13}\\\Rightarrow F=3.37273\times 10^{-14}\ N$

Force on protons is $3.37273\times 10^{-14}\ N$

What is the fate of solar radiation that reaches the earth?

expeople1 [14]

When solar radiation reaches the Earth it quickly dissipates as most of the radiation and UV rays are blocked by ozone layer, but more radiation and UV rays are able to get through because of global warming.

A block lies on a frictionless floor. a force of 5 n pulls toward the east while a force of 4 n pulls toward the north. what is

sveticcg [70]

Given below the arrangement of loading on the larger boat by two tug boats.

F₁ = 5 N

F₂ = 4 N

Angle between them θ = 90⁰

Resultant between two vectors, $F=\sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2+2F_1F_2cos\theta }$

Substituting

$F = \sqrt{5^2+4^2+2*5*4*cos 90} \\ \\ = 6.403 N$

So magnitude of the net force on the block = 6.403 N

true

Explanation:

this is because melting point and boiling point decreases down the group because they are held together by attractions between positive nuclei and delocalised electrons
