Hello,

<span>A police car parked on the side of the highway emits a 1200 Hz sound that bounces off a vehicle farther down the highway and returns with a frequency of 1250 Hz. 

How fast is the vehicle going?

Doppler equation formula: </span>ƒL = ƒS(v - vL)/(v - vS)

The wave returns with a frequency of 1250 Hz, the <span>echo frequency is higher; the car must be traveling towards the police car. 

</span><span>The wave echo is coming back towards the police car at the same speed as the sound wave travels towards the moving car so t</span><span>he relative speed between the cars is half of the speed of the echo.

* </span><span>speed of sound equals about 337 m/s </span>

2v / 337 = (1250/1200) - 1 
<span>2v = 14.04 m/s </span>
<span>v = 7.02 m/s
</span>
Thus, the vehicle is going 7.02 m/s.

Faith xoxo

A person using an oxygen mask is breathing air that is 33% oxygen. what is the partial pressure of the o2, when the air pressure
yawa3891 [41]
The partial pressure of the O2 is 36.3 kiloPascal when the air pressure in the mask is 110 kiloPascal based on the isotherm relation. This problem can be solved by using the isotherm relation equation which stated as Vx/Vtot = px/ptot, where V represents volume, p represents the pressure, x represents the partial gas, and tot represents the total gas<span>. Calculation: 33/100 = px/110 --> px = 36.3</span>

How can energy be traced as it is converted<br> through different transformations?
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Energy transformations are processes that convert energy from one type (e.g., kinetic, gravitational potential, chemical energy) into another. Any type of energy use must involve some sort of energy transformation.
