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

</span><span>fl = fs [(c – vl)/c] = 300[(344-16)/344]

<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.

Which of the following is a definition of glass transition temperature?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

c. The temperature at which a glass transforms from a solid to liquid.

Explanation:

The glass transition temperature is said to be a temperature range when a polymer structure transition from a glass or hardy(solid) material to a rubber like or viscous liquid material.

The glass transition temperature is an important property that is critical in product design.

Two equal forces are applied to a door. The first force is applied at the midpoint of the door, the second force is applied at t
Orlov [11]

Answer:

D) the second at the doorknob

Explanation:

The torque exerted by a force is given by:

\tau = Fdsin \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and d

In this problem, we have:

- Two forces of equal magnitude F

- Both forces are perpendicular to the door, so \theta=90^{\circ}, sin \theta=1

- The first force is exerted at the midpoint of the door, while the 2nd force is applied at the doorknob. This means that d is the larger for the 2nd force

--> therefore, the 2nd force exerts a greater torque

Many behavioral psychologists would disagree with the social cognitive theory because most believe that behavior is __________.
Llana [10]

The correct answer B. Not affected by cognition

Explanation:

In the Social Cognitive Theory, the most important aspects are social interaction and cognition that involves mental processes such as comprehension. Indeed, this theory proposes behaviors are the result of observing other people as part of social interaction, understanding this behavior, and then imitating it.

Despite this, many psychologists do not support this theory and the main reason is that they deny the learning of behavior is related to cognition or complex mental processes. Instead, some believe behavior is the result of certain impulses or that is regulated by conditioning such as behaving correctly to avoid negative consequences.
