Answer:
The mass of the man is 71 kg
Explanation:
Given;
kinetic energy of the man, K.E = 887.5 J
velocity of the man, v = 5 m/s
The mass of the man is calculated as follows;
K.E = ¹/₂mv²
where;
m is the mass of the man
2K.E = mv²
m = 2K.E / v²
m = (2 x 887.5) / (5)²
m = 71 kg
Therefore, the mass of the man is 71 kg
The railroad tracks will expand because the heat waves make them bigger
Answer:
The observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.
Explanation:
Given;
frequency of the source, Fs = 400 Hz
speed of the car as it approaches the stationary observer, Vs = 20 m/s
Based on Doppler effect, as the car the approaches the stationary observer, the observed frequency will be higher than the transmitted (source) frequency because of decrease in distance between the car and the observer.
The observed frequency is calculated as;
![F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=F_s%20%3D%20F_o%20%5B%5Cfrac%7Bv%7D%7Bv_s%20%2B%20v%7D%20%5D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C)
where;
F₀ is the observed frequency
v is the speed of sound in air = 340 m/s
![F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\400 = F_o [\frac{340}{20 + 340} ] \\\\400 = F_o (0.9444) \\\\F_o = \frac{400}{0.9444} \\\\F_o = 423.55 \ Hz \\](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=F_s%20%3D%20F_o%20%5B%5Cfrac%7Bv%7D%7Bv_s%20%2B%20v%7D%20%5D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C400%20%3D%20F_o%20%5B%5Cfrac%7B340%7D%7B20%20%2B%20340%7D%20%5D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C400%20%3D%20F_o%20%280.9444%29%20%5C%5C%5C%5CF_o%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B400%7D%7B0.9444%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5CF_o%20%3D%20423.55%20%5C%20Hz%20%5C%5C)
F₀ ≅ 424 Hz.
Therefore, the observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.
Given:
Gasoline pumping rate, R = 5.64 x 10⁻² kg/s
Density of gasoline, D = 735 kg/m³
Radius of fuel line, r = 3.43 x 10⁻³ m
Calculate the cross sectional area of the fuel line.
A = πr² = π(3.43 x 10⁻³ m)² = 3.6961 x 10⁻⁵ m²
Let v = speed of pumping the gasoline, m/s
Then the mass flow rate is
M = AvD = (3.6961 x 10⁻⁵ m²)*(v m/s)*(735 kg/m³) = 0.027166v kg/s
The gasoline pumping rate is given as 5.64 x 10⁻² kg/s, therefore
0.027166v = 0.0564
v = 2.076 m/s
Answer: 2.076 m/s
The gasoline moves through the fuel line at 2.076 m/s.
