The sound you hear as the siren gets closer will increase in pitch and that will decrease as it moves away from you.

Explanation:
Sound is a longitudinal pressure wave. As the ambulance moves closer to you, the air molecules get compressed together. The wavelength of the sound (these pressure waves) decreases, and the frequency increases. That results in a higher sound pitch.

A 2.0 kg book is lying on a 0.78 m -high table. You pick it up and place it on a bookshelf 2.1 m above the floor.Part ADuring th
zloy xaker [14]

Given data:

* The mass of the book is 2 kg.

* The initial height of the book is 0.78 m.

* The final height of the book is 2.1 m.

Solution:

(A). The work done by the gravity on the book is,

W=mg(h_f-h_i)

where m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, h_i is the initial height and h_f is the final height,

The work is done in moving the object in upward direction where as the gravitational force is acting in the down ward direction. Thus, the value g (acceleration due to gravity) is taken as negative in this case.

Substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} W=2\times(-9.8)\times(2.1-0.78) \\ W=-19.6\times1.32 \\ W=-25.9\text{ J} \end{gathered}

Thus, the work done by the gravitational force is -25.9 J.

(B). The work done by the hand on the moving the book is,

\begin{gathered} W_1=-W \\ =25.9\text{ J} \end{gathered}

Thus, the work done by the hand on the book is 25.9 J.

Most cars have a coolant reservoir to catch radiator fluid that may overflow when the engine is hot. A radiator is made of coppe
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

0.699 L of the fluid will overflow

Explanation:

We know that the change in volume ΔV = V₀β(T₂ - T₁) where V₀ = volume of radiator = 21.1 L, β = coefficient of volume expansion of fluid = 400 × 10⁻⁶/°C

and T₁ = initial temperature of radiator = 12.2°C and T₂ = final temperature of radiator = 95.0°C

Substituting these values into the equation, we have

ΔV = V₀β(T₂ - T₁)

= 21.1 L × 400 × 10⁻⁶/°C × (95.0°C - 12.2°C)

= 21.1 L × 400 × 10⁻⁶/°C × 82.8°C = 698832 × 10⁻⁶ L

= 0.698832 L

≅ 0.699 L = 0.7 L to the nearest tenth litre

So, 0.699 L of the fluid will overflow
