Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is given that a positive test charge q is released from rest at a distance r away from a charge of +Q and a distance 2r which is away from a charge of +2Q.

Then test charge to the right immediately after being released.

Therefore, the net force will be as follows.

            F = \frac{kqQ}{r^{2}} - kq\frac{(2Q)}{(2r)^{2}}

               = \frac{4KqQ - 2KqQ}{4r^{2}}

               = \frac{KqQ}{2r^{2}}

           F = \frac{KqQ}{2r^{2}} > 0

Thus, we can conclude that the test charge move to the right immediately after being released.

Which of the following is an example of the Doppler effect? A water bug on the surface of a pond is producing small ripples in t
noname [10]

Answer:

A police car with its siren on is driving towards you, and you perceive the pitch of the siren to increase.

Explanation:

In Physics, Doppler effect can be defined as the change in frequency of a wave with respect to an observer in motion and moving relative to the source of the wave.

Simply stated, Doppler effect is the change in wave frequency as a result of the relative motion existing between a wave source and its observer.

The term "Doppler effect" was named after an Austrian mathematician and physicist known as Christian Johann Doppler while studying the starlight in relation to the movement of stars.

<em>The phenomenon of Doppler effects is generally applicable to both sound and light. </em>

An example of the Doppler effect is a police car with its siren on is driving towards you, and you perceive the pitch of the siren to increase. This is so because when a sound object moves towards you, its sound waves frequency increases, thereby causing a higher pitch. However, if the sound object is moving away from the observer, it's sound waves frequency decreases and thus resulting in a lower pitch.

<em>Other fields were the Doppler effects are applied are; astronomy, flow management, vibration measurement, radars, satellite communications etc. </em>

Temperature has a(n) _____ effect on the pressure and volume of a gas.
Fiesta28 [93]

Temperature has a direct effect on the pressure of a gas.

If the pressure is constant and the gas is free to fill more
or less space, then temperature also has a direct effect on
the volume of the gas.
