<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

= 286.05 Hz

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

We can use or employ the Doppler equation:

<em><u>fl = fs[(c±vl)/(c-/+vs) </u></em>

where,

  • frequency heard by listener: fl = ?
  • frequency of source: fs = 300 Hz
  • velocity of listener: vl = 16 m/s
  • velocity of source: vs = 0
  • velocity of sound in air: c = 344 m/s

The source will be the origin of the reflected signal (i.e.the

warehouse). So that, velocity of source: vs = 0

<em>The listener is the policeman moving away from the source </em>

<em>with velocity: vl = 16 m/s</em>

<em>Therefore, the Doppler equation. becomes:  </em>

<em>fl = fs [(c – vl)/c] </em>

<em>= 300[(344-16)/344] </em>

<u><em>= 286.04 Hz </em></u>

where, fl is the frequency of the reflected sound heard by

the police officer.

drek231 [11]

a ) The speed of the cab just before it hits the spring = 7.4 m / s

b ) The maximum distance x that the spring is compressed = 0.9 m

c ) The distance that the cab will bounce back up the shaft = 2.8 m

a ) The speed of the cab just before it hits the spring,

Ki + Pi = K final + P final + W

1 / 2 m vo² + m g hi = 1 / 2 m v² + m g h + f d

0 + ( 1800 * 9.8 * 3.7 m ) = ( 1 / 2 * 1800 * v² ) + 0 + ( 4400 * 3.7 )

v = 7.4 m / s

b ) The maximum distance x that the spring is compressed,

Ki + Pi = K final + P final + W + Fs

1 / 2 m vo² + m g x = 1 / 2 m v² + m g h + f d + 1 /2 k x²

( 1/2 * 1800 * 7.4² ) + ( 1800 * 9.8 * x ) =0 + 0+ ( 4400 * x ) + ( 1/2 * 1800 * x² )

75000 x² + 13420 x - 50625 = 0

x = 0.9 m

c ) The distance that the cab will bounce back up the shaft,

Ki + Pi + Fs = K final + P final + W

1 / 2 m vo² + m g x + 1 /2 k x² = 1 / 2 m v² + m g h + f d

0 + 0 + ( 1 / 2 * 0.15 * 0.9² ) = 0 + ( 1800 * 9.8 * h ) + ( 4400 * h )

h = 2.8 m

Therefore,

a ) The speed of the cab just before it hits the spring = 7.4 m / s

b ) The maximum distance x that the spring is compressed = 0.9 m

c ) The distance that the cab will bounce back up the shaft = 2.8 m

(a) The object moves with uniform velocity from A to B.

(b) The object moves with constant velocity from B to C.

(c) The object moves with increasing velocity from C to D.

<h3>Velocity of the object from point A to B</h3>

V(A to B) = (6 - 0)/(4 - 0) = 1.5 m/s

<h3>Velocity of the object from point B to C</h3>

V(B to C) = (6 - 6)/(11 - 4) = 0 m/s

<h3>Velocity of the object from point C to D</h3>

V(C to D) = (7 - 6)/(12 - 11) = 1 m/s

final velocity = 1 + 1.5 m/s = 2.5 m/s

Thus, we can conclude the following;

The object moves with uniform velocity from A to B.

The object moves with constant velocity from B to C.

The object moves with increasing velocity from C to D.

A sky diver, with parachute unopened, falls 625 m in 15.0 s. Then she opens her parachute and falls another 362 m in 139 s. What
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

v_{avg} = 6.41 m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity is defined as the ratio of total displacement of the motion and total time taken in that motion

here we know that initially the sky diver drops without opening parachute by total displacement 625 m

then she open her parachute and drop another 362 m

so first it took time t = 15 s to drop without open parachute

then it took t = 139 s to drop next displacement

so here total displacement is given as

d = 625 m + 362 m

total time is given as

t = 15 s + 139 s

so average velocity is given as

v_{avg} = \frac{625 + 362}{15 + 139}

v_{avg} = 6.41 m/s
