The answer is wave B has a lower frequency.  Suppose these waves represent the sound of a siren on a passing ambulance. Wave B (lower frequency) represents the sound of the siren after it has passed you.  The ambulance moving towards the observer produces a higher than normal frequency, and the ambulance moving away produces a lower than normal frequency.

Answer:

The correct answer is "wave B has a lower frequency."

Explanation:

The Doppler effect is defined as the change in apparent frequency of a wave produced by the relative movement of the source with respect to its observer. In other words, this effect is the change in the perceived frequency of any wave movement when the sender and the receiver, or observer, move relative to each other.

This is the effect that occurs in this case. And it is explained as follows: When the ambulance approaches the observer, the wave "compresses", that is, the wavelength is short, the frequency high and, therefore, the tone of the perceived sound will be sharp. On the other hand, when the ambulance moves away from the observer, the wave "decompresses", that is, the wavelength is long and the frequency low.

Then the correct answer is "wave B has a lower frequency."

A space vehicle accelerates uniformly from 85 m/s at t = 0 to 164 m/s at t = 10.0 s .How far did it move between t = 2.0 s and t
creativ13 [48]

First, we have a change in the velocity from 85 to 164 m/s in 10 sec.

Then, we calculate the <u>acceleration </u>as:

a=\frac{v_{f}-v_{i} }{t} =\frac{164-85}{10}=7.9 m/s^2

Hence we need to calculate the velocity of the space vehicle at t = 2 sec using the first equation of motion:

v_{f}=v_{i}+at=85+7.9*2=100.8m/s

Then, using the second equation of motion to calculate the distance:

d=v_{i}  t+\frac{1}{2}at^2

d=100.8*2+\frac{1}{2}*7.9*(2)^2=217.4m

How is the magnetic force on a particle moving in a magnetic field different from gravitational and electric forces.
harina [27]

Answer:

The magnetic force on a free moving charge depends on the velocity of the charge and the magnetic field, direction of the force is given by the right hand rule. While gravitational depends on the mass and distance of the moving particle and electric forces depends on the magnitude of the charge and distance of separation.

Explanation:

The magnetic force on a free moving charge depends on the velocity of the charge and the magnetic field and direction of the force is given by the right hand rule. While gravitational depends on the mass and distance of the moving particle and electric forces depends on the magnitude of the charge and distance of separation.

The magnetic force is given by the charge times the vector product of velocity and magnetic field. While gravitational force is given by the square of the particle mass divided by the square its distance of separation. Also electric forces is given by the square of the charge magnitude divided by the square its distance separation.
