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

Answer:

v² = u² + 2gh

8.9² = 0² + 2(9.8)h

h = 4.0 m

v = at

t = 8.9/9.8

t = 0.91 s

loris [4]

Answer:

0.08735 kgm²

Explanation:

m = Mass of lower leg = 5 kg

L = Length of leg = 18 cm

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

f = Frequency = 1.6 Hz

I = Moment of inertia

Time period is given by

T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{I}{mgL}}

Also

T=\dfrac{1}{f}

So,

I=\dfrac{mgL}{(2\pi f)^2}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{5\times 9.81\times 0.18}{(2\pi 1.6)^2}\\\Rightarrow I=0.08735\ kgm^2

The moment of inertia of the lower leg is 0.08735 kgm²

Law Incorporation [45]
Here, you need to use your "Protractor" as it is given in the question, but we can calculate the value with the help of our mathematical calculation too:
[ Protractor can be use only in real life, not here ]

Draw an imaginary line from initial position to final position.
Now, In that triangle, tan x = P/B
tan x = 1.4 / 2
tan x = 0.70
x = tan⁻¹ (0.70)
x = 35  [ tan 35 = 0.70 ]

In short, Your Answer would be 35 degrees

Hope this helps!
