Answer:

Explanation:

f = 860 Hz

velocity of  source, vs = 20 m/s

velocity of sound, v = 343 m/s

use the formula of doppler's effect

the frequency reflected from the wall is

f' = \frac{v}{v+ v_{s}}\times f

f' = \frac{343}{343+20}\times 860

f' = 812.62 Hz

Frequency heard by the observer

f'' = \frac{343}{343-20}\times 812.62

f'' = 862.93 Hz

Answer:

f_o=860\ Hz

Explanation:

Given:

  • original frequency of sound wave, f=860\ Hz
  • speed of the sound source, v_s=20\ m.s^{-1}
  • original speed of sound wave from the source, s=343\ m.s^{-1}

<u>According to the Doppler's effect:</u>

\frac{f_s}{f_o} =\frac{s+v_s}{s-v_o}

The sound is reflected from the wall and the source is moving towards the wall and observer is also riding the same source.

The velocity of the observer, v_o=-20\ m.s^{-1}

\frac{860}{f_o} =\frac{s+20}{s-(-20)}

f_o=860\ Hz

Calculate the change in length of concrete sidewalk (coefficient of linear expansion for concrete is 12*10^-6/celcius) that is 1
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 5.4 cm

Explanation:

This problem refers to calculate the change in length in one dimension due to a change in temperature.

Data

α = 12 x 10⁻⁶

Lo = 150 meters

ΔT = 30 °C

Formula

                    ΔL/Lo = αΔT

solve for ΔL

                    ΔL = αLoΔT

Substitution

                    ΔL = (12 x 10⁻⁶)(150)(30)

Simplification

                    ΔL = 0054 m = 5.4 cm

A 5.75 × 107 kg battle ship originally at rest fires a 1100-kg artillery shell horizontally with a velocity of 550 m/s. show ans
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

-0.01052 m/s

Explanation:

M = mass of ship = 5.75\times 10^7\ kg

m = mass of shell = 1100 kg

v = velocity of shell = 550 m/s

u = recoil velocity of ship

As linear momentum is conserved

(M - m)u=-mv\\\Rightarrow u=-\frac{mv}{M - m}\\\Rightarrow u=-\frac{1100\times 550}{5.75\times 10^7+1100}\\\Rightarrow u=-0.01052\ m/s

The recoil velocity of the ship taking the firing direction to be the positive direction is -0.01052 m/s

Aldis is swinging a ball tied to the end of a string over his head. Suddenly, the string breaks and the ball flies away. Arrow b
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Straight line in the direction of the tangential velocity the ball had at the moment the string broke

Explanation:

After the string breaks, the ball now disconnected from the centripetal force that was exerted via the string, continues its travel in a straight line in the direction of the tangential velocity it had at the moment the string broke.
