A stationary police car emits a sound of frequency 1240 HzHz that bounces off of a car on the highway and returns with a frequen

cy of 1275 HzHz. The police car is right next to the highway, so the moving car is traveling directly toward or away from it.

Answer

given,

frequency from Police car= 1240 Hz

frequency of sound after return  = 1275 Hz

Calculating the speed of the car = ?

Using Doppler's effect formula

Frequency received by the other car

  f_1 = \dfrac{f_0(u + v)}{u}..........(1)

u is the speed of sound = 340 m/s

v is the speed of the car

Frequency of the police car received

  f_2= \dfrac{f_1(u)}{u-v}

now, inserting the value of equation (1)

  f_2= f_0\dfrac{u+v}{u-v}

  1275=1240\times \dfrac{340+v}{340-v}

  1.02822(340 - v) = 340 + v

   2.02822 v = 340 x 0.028822

   2.02822 v = 9.799

   v = 4.83 m/s

hence, the speed of the car is equal to v = 4.83 m/s

Example of nuclear fission and nuclear fusion​
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

In fission, energy is gained by splitting apart heavy atoms, for example uranium, into smaller atoms such as iodine, caesium, strontium, xenon and barium, to name just a few. However, fusion is combining light atoms, for example two hydrogen isotopes, deuterium and tritium, to form the heavier helium.

How does upwelling affect the weather of a coastal region?
SIZIF [17.4K]

c.The warm surface water results in moist air and more rainfall.

Explanation:

  • During upwelling, cold water in the ocean is stirred up and brought to the surface.
  • The warmer surface water is then taken into deeper parts of the ocean.
  • Upwelling allows for nutrient mixing in the ocean and allows for useful gases to circulate well.
  • The warm surface water causes the air to be moisty.
  • When the air is carried landward towards the coast, it leads to rainfall when the saturated air releases the water.
  • The air then becomes cold and dry and it rises up.
  • Therefore, warm surface water results in moist air and more rainfall.

A 1.0 kg block is attached to an unstretched
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Change in  potential energy of the block-spring-Earth

system between Figure 1 and Figure 2 = 1 Nm.

Explanation:

Here, spring constant, k  = 50 N/m.

given block comes down eventually 0.2 m below.

here, g = 10 m/s.

let block be at a height h above the ground in figure 1.

⇒In figure 2, potential energy of the block-spring-Earth

system = m×g×(h - 0.2) + 1/2× k × x². where, x = change in spring length.

⇒ Change in  potential energy of the block-spring-Earth

system between Figure 1 and Figure 2 = (m×g×(h - 0.2)) - (1/2× k × x²)

              =  (1×10×0.2) - (1/2×50×0.2×0.2) = 1 Nm.
