A car speeding down the highway honks its horn, which has a frequency 392 Hz, but a resting bystander hears the frequency 440 Hz

Answer:

37.42 m/s

Explanation:

We know that apparent frequency, $\bar f$ is given by

$\bar f=f\frac {V}{V-V_s}$ where f is the given frequency in this case 392, V is the speed of sound in air which is given as 343 and $V_s$ is the speed of car which is unknown, \bar f is given as 440 Hz

$440=392\times \frac {343}{343-V_s}\\343-V_s=392\times \frac {343}{440}=305.5818182\\V_s=343-305.5818182=37.41818182\approx 37.42 m/s$

A force acts on a 9.90 kg mobile object that moves from an initial position of to a final position of in 5.40 s. Find (a) the wo

horrorfan [7]

Given that,

Mass of object = 9.90 kg

Time =5.40 s

Suppose the force is (2.00i + 9.00j + 5.30k) N, initial position is (2.70i - 2.90j + 5.50k) m and final position is (-4.10i + 3.30j + 5.40k) m.

We need to calculate the displacement

Using formula of displacement

$s=r_{2}-r_{1}$

Where, $r_{1}$ = initial position

$r_{2}$ = final position

Put the value into the formula

$s= (-4.10i + 3.30j + 5.40k)-(2.70i - 2.90j + 5.50k)$

$s= -6.80i+6.20j-0.1k$

(a). We need to calculate the work done on the object

Using formula of work done

$W=F\cdot s$

Put the value into the formula

$W=(2.00i + 9.00j + 5.30k)\cdot (-6.80i+6.20j-0.1k)$

$W=-13.6+55.8-0.53$

$W=41.67\ J$

(b). We need to calculate the average power due to the force during that interval

Using formula of power

$P=\dfrac{W}{t}$

Where, P = power

W = work

t = time

Put the value into the formula

$P=\dfrac{41.67}{5.40}$

$P=7.71\ Watt$

(c). We need to calculate the angle between vectors

Using formula of angle

$\theta=\cos^{-1}(\dfrac{r_{1}r_{2}}{|r_{1}||r_{2}|})$

Put the value into the formula

$\theta=\cos^{-1}\dfrac{(-4.10i + 3.30j + 5.40k)\cdot(2.70i - 2.90j + 5.50k)}{7.54\times6.778})$

$\theta=79.7^{\circ}$

Hence, (a). The work done on the object by the force in the 5.40 s interval is 41.67 J.

(b). The average power due to the force during that interval is 7.71 Watt.

(c). The angle between vectors is 79.7°

How much power does it take to lift a 30.0 n box 10.0 m high in 5.00 s, if you must apply a 62n force to lift the box?

Illusion [34]

Power is defined as the rate at which the body is doing work:
$P=\frac{W}{t}$
Work is defined as displacement done by the force times that displacement:
$W=F\cdot h$
We know that we need 62N to move the box, so when we apply this force along the path of 10m we have done:
$W=62N\cdot10m=620J$
of work.
Now we just divide that by 5s to get how much power is required:
$P=\frac{620J}{5s}=124W$
