To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 16.2 Doppler effect. The sound source of a ship’s sonar system operates at a frequency of 2

2.0 kHz . The speed of sound in water (assumed to be at a uniform 20∘C) is 1482 m/s . What is the difference in frequency between the directly radiated waves and the waves reflected from a whale traveling straight toward the ship at 4.95 m/s ? Assume that the ship is at rest in the water. mastering physics g

Answer:

147 Hz

Explanation:

First we need to know what frequency will the waves hitting the whale have respect of it.

The change in frequency is calculated with this equation:

\Delta f = \frac{\Delta v}{c} * f0

However in this case, the wave is bouncing on the whale and coming back, so there is a double frequency shift (the difference is the same both times because the relative speeds between the two objects is the same both times)

\Delta f = 2*\frac{\Delta v}{c} * f0

Then:

\Delta f = 2*\frac{\4.95 - 0}{1482} * 22000 = 147 Hz

The frequency shift is positive, it will have increased frequency.

What happens when the crests of two waves overlap
gregori [183]
Energy of the waves are redistributed to form a resultant wave with amplitude given by the summation of individual wave's amplitude.

Which sentences describe the cyclone device?
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

✓ A cyclone device accumulates fine particulates from the air by making a dirty air stream flow in a spiral path inside a  cylindrical chamber.

✘ It consists of several long and narrow fabric filter bags suspended upside-down in a large  enclosure.

✓ When dirty air enters the chamber, the larger particulates strike the chamber wall and fall into a conical dust  hopper at the bottom.

✘ Fans blow dirt-filled air upward from the bottom of the enclosure, trapping dirt particles inside the  filter bags and releasing clean air from the top.

✓ The top of the chamber has an outlet that lets out cleaned air.

Basically, any of these choices that have the word "filter" are wrong. The point of the cyclone device is to separate the particles without the use of filters. You can tell the right answers based on the picture attached below.
