To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Doppler effect. The general expression to apply the Doppler effect is given by the function:

f = (\frac{f_0}{1\pm v_s/v})

Here,

f_0 = Original Frequency

f = Observed Frequency

v_s = Speed of the object

v = Speed of the sound wave

PART A)

Converting the velocity to SI units we have,

v = 90km/h(\frac{3600s}{1h})(\frac{1000m}{1km})

v = 25m/s

Replacing at the equation we have,

f = (\frac{f_0}{1 - v_s/v})

f =  (\frac{600Hz}{1-25/343})

f = 650Hz

Therefore the frequency for a person standing beside the road in front of the car is 650Hz

PART B) The frequency for a person standing beside the road behind the car would be,

f = (\frac{f_0}{1+v_s/v})

f = (\frac{600Hz}{1-25/343})

f = 560Hz

In which situation are both the speed and velocity of the car changing?
lubasha [3.4K]
Answer is A because the speed and velocity would change. Think of it as GTA, your going 30+ miles per hour and you take a left turn, the speed and velocity would change in an instant.. 
Hope this helped.

A spring with a constant k=400n/m shoots a 1. 00kg ball up a frictionless incline after being compressed 0. 150m. what is the ma
Zielflug [23.3K]

The maximum height reached by the ball is 0.46m.

To find the answer, we have to know about the potential energy of a spring mass system.

<h3>How to find the maximum height reached by the ball?</h3>
  • It is given that,

                       k=400N/m\\m=1kg\\x=0.150m\\h=?\\

  • We have to find the maximum height reached by the ball.
  • Thus, we have the expression for potential energy of a spring mass system and that of gravitational field as,

                             U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2 \\U=mgh

  • Combining both, we get,

                    h=\frac{kx^2}{2mg} =\frac{400*(0.15)^2}{2*1*9.8} =0.46m

Thus, we can conclude that, the maximum height reached by the ball is 0.46m.

g A ping pong ball (thin shell sphere) rolls down an incline at 30° from rest. What is its acceleration
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to newtons second law of motion;

F = ma .... 1

Also the force acting aong the inclines is expressed as;

F = mgsintheta

m is the mass of the object

a is the acceleration

theta is angle of inclination

Equate 1 and 2

ma = mg sin theta

a = gsin(theta)

a = 9.8sin30

a = 9.8(0.5)

a = 4.9m/s²

Hence the acceleration of the ping pong is 4.9m/s²
