What frequency is received by the ambulance after reflecting from a wall near the person watching the oncoming ambulance (as in

the previous problem). The ambulance is moving at 104 km/h and emitting a steady 821-Hz sound from its siren? The speed of sound on this day is 345 m/s.

Answer:

f=896Hz

Explanation:

Given data

Vs(speed of the ambulance)={(104 km/h)*(1000m*(1 h/3600)}=28.9m/s

f(frequency of the ambulance siren)=821 Hz

v(speed of sound)=345 m/s

Vo(speed of the observer)=0 m/s

To find

f(The ambulance is approaching the person)

Solution

From Doppler effect

f^{i}=(\frac{v+v_{o} }{v-v_{s} })f

As the ambulance approaches the we assign a positive sign for speed "vs" of the ambulance

So

f^{i}=(\frac{v+0}{v-(+v_{s}) } )f\\f^{i}=(\frac{v}{v-v_{s} } )f

Substitute the values from given data

f^{i}=(\frac{345m/s}{345m/s-28.9m/s} )821Hz\\f^{i}=896Hz

6) Why do electromagnetic waves not require a medium for travel?
sergij07 [2.7K]
Electromagnetic waves are a type of
transverse wave. This wave does not
require media for travel. As the name
implies a wave, these waves indicate
electrical and magnetic properties. No
cost whatsoever happened to the wave. Electromagnetic waves work with the
laws of reflection and refraction. They
travel the straight line in a vacuum at a
speed of 3 x 108 ms-1. The intensity of
electromagnetic waves depends on the
strength of the electric field.

The main purpose of a service panel in a house is to A. keep the meter working correctly. B. connect the service drop to the hou
cricket20 [7]
I think the best answer would be the last option. The main purpose of a service panel in a house is to keep electrical hazards localized. Service panels are used to identify circuit loads and isolate these loads so when  you want to check the equipment you can easily identify the line. Also, it would serve as the isolation point to avoid any electrical hazards.

kolbaska11 [484]
There are two laws named for Kirchhoff.  The both concern electrical circuits.
Here they are in my own words:

1).  The sum of the voltage drops around any closed loop in a circuit is zero.

2).  The sum of the currents at any single point in a circuit is zero.

The majority of earthquakes worldwide occur at all but one location. That is
natta225 [31]
Earthquakes occur in the crust or upper mantle, from the earth’s surface to about 400 miles below the surface. But the very deepest earthquakes only occur at subduction zones where cold crustal rock is being pushed deep into the earth. In California, earthquakes are almost all in the top 15 miles of the crust, except in northern California along the Cascadia Subduction Zone, which extends into Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia.(tectonic plate boundaries)
