Answer:

The frequency heard by the motorist is 4313.2 Hz.

Explanation:

let f1 be the frequency emited by the police car and f2 be the frequency heard by the motorist, let v1 be the speed of the police car and v2 be the speed of the motorist and v = 343 m/s be the speed of sound.

because the police car is moving towards the motorist at a higher speed, then the motorist will hear a increasing frequency and according to Dopper effect, that frequency is given by:

f1 =  [(v + v2/(v - v1))]×(f2)

   = [( 343 + 30)/(343 - 36)]×(3550)

   = 4313.2 Hz

Therefore, the frequency heard by the motorist is 4313.2 Hz.

The end of a horizontal rope is attatched to a prong of an electricity driven tuning fork that vibrates at 100hz. The other end
Darina [25.2K]

here since string is attached with a mass of 2 kg

so here tension force in the rope is given as

T = mg

here we will have

T = 2(9.8) = 19.6 N

now we will have speed of wave given as

v = \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

here we will have

v = \sqrt{\frac{19.6}{0.75\times 10^{-2}}}

v = 16.33 m/s

now we know that frequency is given as

F = 100 Hz

now wavelength is given as

\lambda = \frac{v}{F}

\lambda = \frac{16.33}{100} = 0.16 m

so wavelength will be 0.16 m

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

E = 124.7 N / C

Explanation:

Let's analyze the exercise: the microwave creates an electromagnetic wave of frequency F = 2.45 GHz, this wave is introduced into the microwave cavity and is reflected on the metal walls, which is why one or more standing waves are formed.

The electric field of the standing wave is

            I = E²

            E =√I

where I is the intensity of the radiation.

What is it

             I = P / A

where P is the effective emission power, almost all the power of the microwave and A is the area of ​​the cavity, in the most used microwaves

P = 700 W and the area is A = 25 x 18 cm² = 0.045 m²

             I = 700 / 0.045

             I = 15555.56 W/m²

let's calculate the electric field

            E = √15555.56

            E = 124.7 N / C
