A woman is sitting at a bus stop when an ambulance with a siren wailing at 317 Hz approaches at 69 miles per hour (mph). Assume

the speed of sound to be 343 m/s. a) How fast is the ambulance moving in meters per second? (perform the necessary unit conversion) Vs= 69 mph = m/s b) What frequency does the woman hear? fa = Hz c) What speed (vs) would the ambulance be traveling in order for the woman to hear the siren at an approaching frequency of 350 Hz? Vs= m/s d) What frequency would she hear as the siren moves away from her at the same speed (as in part c)? fa = Hz

Answer:

a) 30.84m/s

b) 348.32Hz

c) 32.34m/s

d) 289.69Hz

Explanation:

a) If 1 mile=1609,34m, and 1 hour=3600 seconds, then 69mph=69*1609.34m/3600s=30.84m/s

b) Based on Doppler effect:

/*I will take as positive direction the vector \vec r_{observer}-\vec r_{emiter} */

f_{observed}=(\frac{v_{sound}-v_{observed}}{v_{sound}-v_{emited}})f_{emited}

f_{observed}=(\frac{343m/s-0m/s}{343m/s-30.84m/s})317Hz=348.32Hz

c) 350Hz=(\frac{343m/s-0m/s}{343m/s-v_{ambulance}})317Hz, V_{ambulance}=343m/s-\frac{317Hz}{350Hz}.343m/s=32.34m/s

d) f_{observed}=(\frac{343m/s-0m/s}{343m/s+32.34m/s})317Hz=289.69Hz

What pressure will 14. 0 g of co exert in a 3. 5 l container at 75°c?
Ronch [10]

The pressure will 14. 0 g of co exert in a 3. 5 l container at 75°c is 4.1atm.

Therefore, option A is correct option.

Given,

Mass m = 14g

Volume= 3.5L

Temperature T= 75+273 = 348 K

Molar mass of CO = 28g/mol

Universal gas constant R= 0.082057L

Number of moles in 14 g of CO is

n= mass/ molar mass

= 14/28

= 0.5 mol

As we know that

PV= nRT

P × 3.5 = 0.5 × 0.082057 × 348

P × 3.5 = 14.277

P = 14.277/3.5

P = 4.0794 atm

P = 4.1 atm.

Thus we concluded that the pressure will 14. 0 g of co exert in a 3. 5 l container at 75°c is 4.1atm.
