Answer:f_{0} = 692.82Hz

Explanation: This question of ours is based on Doppler effect.The Doppler effect states that<em> if a source is producing sound at a specific frequency to an observer and there is a relative motion between the observer and the source, the frequency of sound perceived by the observer  will be different from that of the original from the source. </em>

This represented mathematically below as

f_{0} =\frac{v +v_{0} }{v -v_{s} }  * f

where

f_{0} = observed frequency = ?

f = original frequency of sound source = 650Hz

v = speed of sound in air = 343m/s

v_{0} = velocity of observer relative to the source = 0m/s ( the observer is standing, thus meaning he is not moving)

v_{s} = velocity of sound source relative to the observer = 21.2m/s

by putting all of these in the formulae, we have that

f_{0} = \frac{343 + 0}{343 -21.2} *650\\\\\\f_{0} = \frac{343}{321.8} * 650\\\\\\f_{0} = 692.98Hz

kiruha [24]

Answer: (a) and (b) => check attached file.

(c). Picture (a) and (b) will both remain the same.

Explanation:

IMPORTANT: The solution to the question (a) and (b) that is  (a) Draw a neat snapshot mode labeled vector picture of the wave. (b) Draw a neat movie mode labeled vector picture of the wave is there in the ATTACHED FILE/PICTURE.

It is also worthy of note to know that in anything Electromagnetic wave, the magnetic field, the Electric Field and their direction of propagation are perpendicular to each other.

Therefore, knowing the fact above we can say that in yellow light, the magnetic field is in the y-direction and the Electric Field is in the z-direction.

Hence, the solution to option C is given below;

(C).If the wave were to represent blue light instead of yellow light, picture (a) will remain the same because both light are Electromagnetic wave, although the wavelength will have to change. Picture (b) will also remain the same because they are both Electromagnetic waves and possess similar properties.

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

One of the leading theories of hot-Jupiter formation holds that gas giants in distant orbits become hot Jupiters when the gravitational influences from nearby stars or planets drive them into closer orbits. They formed as gas giants beyond the frost line and then migrated inwards.

Explanation:

In the migration hypothesis, a hot Jupiter forms beyond the frost line, from rock, ice, and gases via the core accretion method of planetary formation. The planet then migrates inwards to the star where it eventually forms a stable orbit. The planet may have migrated inward smoothly via type II orbital migration.  

Hot-Jupiters are heated gas giant planets that are very close to their stars, just a few million miles distant and orbiting their stellar hosts in just a few days. The reason why there isn't one in our Solar System is down to its formation. All gas giants form far from their star but then some migrate inwards.

Hot-Jupiters  will just happen to transit about 10% (that is, since orbital planes) this is consistent with the rate expected from geometry of . The actual frequencies of hot Jupiters around normal stars is surprisingly hard to figure out.
