In the diagram below, a stationary source located at point S produces sound having a constant frequency of 512 hertz. Observer A

, 50 meters to the left of S, hears a frequency of 512 hertz. Observer B, 100.0 meters to the right of S, hears a frequency lower than 512 hertz.
A) Observer A is stationary, and observer B is moving away from point S.

B) Observer A is stationary, and observer B is moving toward point S.

C) Observer A is moving away from point S, and observer B is stationary.

D) Observer A is moving toward point S, and observer B is stationary.

This has to do with Doppler effect. If the source or the observer moves, they the observer will hear a different frequency. Since the source is stationary, we only need to know whether the observer is moving.

Since Observer A does not hear a change in frequency, he a must be stationary. So we can ignore C and D

Since Observer B hears a different frequency, Observer B must be moving. Here's the tricky part. We need to find whether B is moving towards or away the source. Since he hears a lower frequency, he is walking away from the source. So the answer is A.

You can conform with the Doppler equation.

Answer: A

Which statement is the best interpretation of the ray diagram shown below?
madreJ [45]

A) A concave mirror forming a larger, virtual image

Explanation:

The figure is missing; see attachment.

There are two types of mirror:

  • Concave (converging) mirrors: a concave mirror is a mirror that reflects the light inward
  • Convex (diverging) mirrors: a convex mirror is a mirror that reflects the light outward

The image formed by a mirror can also be of two types:

  • Real image: it is formed on the same side of the object, with respect to the mirror
  • Virtual image: it is formed on the opposite side of the object, with respect to the mirror

In the figure of this problem (see attachment), we see that:

- The mirror reflects the light from the object inward --> so it is a concave mirror

- The image is formed on the other side of the mirror --> it is a virtual image

So the correct option is

A) A concave mirror forming a larger, virtual image

A small rubber ball is launched by a compressed-air cannon from ground level with an initial speed of 17.3 m/s directly upward.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

h=15.27m

Explanation:

Since at maximum height the vertical velocity must be null it's better to use the formula:

v_f^2=v_i^2+2ad

We will use this formula for the vertical direction, choosing the upward direction as the positive one, so we have:

0=v_i^2+2ah

or

h=-\frac{v_i^2}{2a}

which for our values is:

h=-\frac{(17.3m/s)^2}{2(-9.8m/s^2)}=15.27m

Why is the spectrum of a star called an absorption spectrum?
ladessa [460]
It is called absorption spectrum because a gas of hydrogen will make a line spectrum and if viewed for another angle it would be between a continuum light and a emission line spectrum

A person climbs out of swimming pool and stands in the open air.Explain why evaporation of water from the surface of the persons
Lorico [155]

Answer:

The person feels cool at first because the swimming pool water is usually cool and he/she has that water on his body. But when it evaporates, the cool air directly touches his body and that's why he/she feels cold.
