Answer:

(a) Angle is 42.865°

(b) t=12.54s

Explanation:

The jet plane is at 5870m from Earth surface

The jet traveling at speed of 1.47 Mach

Speed of Sound v=343 m/s

Part (a)

As we know :

Sin\alpha =\frac{v}{vs}\\

Substitute the given values

Sin\alpha =\frac{v}{1.47v}\\ Sin\alpha =\frac{343m/s}{1.47(343m/s)} \\Sin\alpha =0.68027\\\alpha =Sin^{-1}(0.68027)\\\alpha  =42.865^{o}

Angle is 42.865°

Part (b)

As the distance given as:

d=vst

By using some trigonometry

d=\frac{h}{tan\alpha }

Where h is the height of jet plane

Thus

t=\frac{h}{tan\alpha } \frac{1}{vs}

Substitute the given values

So

t=\frac{5870m}{tan(42.865)}\frac{1}{1.47(343m/s)}  \\t=12.54s

object x and y fall from a same height and object x is heavier than y which object would fall faster qnd y​
hjlf

Answer: They’d fall at the same speed, because air resistance is the only thing that makes an object fall faster than another. There’s a video somewhere on the internet of a bowling ball and a feather falling at the same speed in a vacuum, if you look for it. Hope this helps!

If the frequency of an electromagnetic wave increases, does the number of waves passing by you increase, decrease, or stay the s
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

option(d)

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is the property of the source of wave.

The velocity of all the electromagnetic waves is same as the speed of light. It only changes as the light passes through one medium to another.

The frequency is defined as the number of waves coming out from the source in 1 second.

As the frequency of wave increases, the number of wave coming per second increases.

So, the number of waves passing by increases but the speed remains same.

Option (d)

Which refers to the change of pitch heard when the source of the sound approaches and then moves away from a stationary person?
babunello [35]
<h2><em>The Doppler effect is a change in the frequency of sound waves that occurs when the source of the sound waves is moving relative to a stationary listener. As the source of sound waves approaches a listener, the sound waves get closer together, increasing their frequency and the pitch of the sound.</em></h2><h2><em>HOP</em>E IT HELPS </h2><h2>THANK YOU </h2>
