<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Doppler effect

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>The pitch of the siren of a Fire truck appears to change as the truck passes us due to the Doppler effect.</u></em>
  • <em><u>Doppler effect is the tendency to increase or decrease the wavelength of the sound due to the motion of the source. </u></em>
  • Therefore; when the ambulance is approaching ab observer, the wavelength is decreased and the pitch of the sound also increases as compared to when the ambulance is at rest.
  • When the ambulance passes and is moving away from an observer, the wavelength is increased and the pitch is decreased below the value when the source is at rest.

Answer:

Doppler effect

Explanation:

Doppler effect :

In simple meaning Doppler effect is an adjustment in frequency and wavelength of a wave. It is brought about by the adjustment in separation between the thing making the wave (causer) and anything that is estimating seeing or hearing the wave.

According to this effect the pitch of the wave changes distance is changes

Which law is described by saying that doubling the absolute temperature will double the pressure of a sample of gas in a rigid c
damaskus [11]

Answer:

Gay Lussac law

Explanation:

Gay Lussac law states that for a gas kept at constant volume (so, in a rigid container), the pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.

In mathematical formula:

\frac{p}{T}=k

where

p is the gas pressure

T is the absolute temperature

According to this law, we see therefore that if the absolute temperature of the gas is doubled:

T' = 2T

The pressure will also double:

\frac{p}{T}=\frac{p'}{T'}\\p' = p \frac{T'}{T}=p\frac{2T}{T}=2p

How much energy is released when a proton combines with a deuterium nucleus to produce 3He?
slava [35]

Answer:

E =  7.99 *10^{-13} J

Explanation:

the given reaction is

_1 H^1 + _1 H^2 = _2 He^3

we know that energy is given asE = \Delta mc^2E = (m_1 H^1 + m_1 H^2  - _2 He^3)c^2

where

m_1 H^1 is mass of proton = 1.672622 *10^{-27}

m_1 H^2 is mass of deuterium = 3.344494 *10^{-27}

m_2 H^3 is mass of He = 5.008234 *10^{-27}

E = [1.672622 *10^{-27} + 3.344494 *10^{-27} - 5.008234 *10^{-27} ] *(3*10^8)^2

E =  7.99 *10^{-13} J

Refraction occurs through a glass slab why​
masha68 [24]

Answer:

One when it enters the glass slab from air and second time when it enters the air through glass slab. When light rays travelling through air enters glass slab, they get refracted and bend towards the normal. Now the direction of refracted ray changes again when it comes out of the glass slab into air.

2. Explain what happened to the electrons in an ion with a charge of +1.
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

An atom always has the same number of electrons as protons. Electrons have an electric charge of -1 and protons have an electric charge of +1. Therefore, the charges of an atom's electrons and protons “cancel out.” This explains why atoms are neutral in electric charge.
