f' = frequency observed by the police car after sound reflected from the vehicle and comes back to police car = 1250 Hz

f = frequency emitted by the police car  = 1200 Hz

V = speed of sound = 340 m/s

v = speed of vehicle = ?

frequency observed by the police car is given as

f' = f (V + v)/(V - v)

inserting the values in the above equation

1250 = 1200 (340 + v)/(340 - v)

v = 6.9 m/s

According to Wien's Law, how many times hotter is an object whose blackbody emission spectrum peaks in the blue, at a wave lengt
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:1.55 times

Explanation:

Given

First wavelength(\lambda _1)=450 nm

Second wavelength(\lambda _2)=700 nm

According wien's diplacement law

\lambda T=constant

where \lambda =wavelength

T=Temperature

Let T_1 and T_2 be the temperatures corresponding to \lambda _1 & \lambda _2 respectively.

\lambda _1\times T_1=\lambda _2\times T_2

\frac{T_1}{T_2}=\frac{\lambda _2}{\lambda _1}

\frac{T_1}{T_2}=\frac{700}{450}=1.55

Thus object with \lambda 450 nm is 1.55 times hotter than object with wavelength \lambda =700 nm

Answer:

The answer is 218

Explanation:

Weight = mass * gravitational acceleration

weight is represented by F

F = 25kg (8.7)

(I'm pretty sure that you don't have to include the meters per second/per second thing)

Your friend is wearing a red coat. When white light hits the coat, some light is reflected, and some is absorbed.
Vilka [71]

Answer:

Orange , yellow, green and blue

red coat absorbs all colors of visible light except red, so red light

is the only light left to bounce off of the coat toward our eyes.

A dairy farmer notices that a circular water trough near the barn has become rusty and now has a hole near the base. The hole is
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

v=1.93m/s

Explanation:

From the concept of fluids mechanics we know that if a tank has a hole at the bottom, the equation that we need to use is:

v=\sqrt{2gh}

Since we know gravity and its hight

v=\sqrt{2*(9.81m/s^{2})(0.19m) }=1.93m/s

What must happen to the temperature of a material for thermal expansion to occur.
Aloiza [94]
In most cases the temperature must increase for thermal expansion to occur. Most substances expand as temperature increases because the atoms or molecules vibrate faster as temperature increases and experience greater separation.
