Help with the two questions above? Correct answers?
1 answer:
(6) first choice: the frequency appears higher and wavelength is shorter.
The car approaches a stationary observer and so the sound will appear to have shorter wavelength. This creates an effect of its siren to sound with higher frequency than it would do if both were stationary.
(7) The Doppler formula for frequency in the case of a stationary observer and source approaching it is as follows:
The wavelength is then
The third choice "0.80m; 431Hz" is correct

Answer:
magnitude = 3
unit vector =
Explanation:
Given vectors:
u = 2i + 2j - k
v = -i + k = -i + 0j + k
(a) u x v is the cross product of u and v, and is given by;
u x v = i(2+0) - j(2 - 1) + k(0 - 2)
u x v = 2i - j - 2k
Now the magnitude of u x v is calculated as follows:
| u x v | =
| u x v | =
| u x v | =
| u x v | = 3
Therefore, the magnitude of u x v is 3
(b) The unit vector û parallel to u x v in the direction of u x v is given by the ratio of u x v and the magnitude of u x v. i.e
û =
u x v = 2i - j - 2k [<em>calculated in (a) above</em>]
|u x v| = 3 [<em>calculated in (a) above</em>]
∴ û =
∴ û =
