The sound source of a ship's sonar system operates at a frequency of 18.0 kHzkHz . The speed of sound in water (assumed to be at

a uniform 20∘C)∘C) is 1482 m/sm/s. The ship is at rest in the water.
(a) What is the wavelength of the waves emitted by the source?
(b) What is the difference in frequency between the directly radiated waves and the waves reflected from a whale traveling directly toward the ship at 4.95 m/s? The ship is at rest in the water.

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) wave length of waves in water

= velocity / frequency

= 1482 / (18 x 1000)

= .0823 m

= 8.23 cm

b ) Applying Doppler's effect relation

frequency of reflected wave

= 18000 [ 1482 / (1482 - 4.95 ) ]

= 18000 x 1.003385

= 18061

Difference in frequency= 61 Hz

A delivery truck leaves a warehouse and travels 3.20 km east. The truck makes a right turn and travels 2.45 km south to arrive a
boyakko [2]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Displacement of the delivery truck, d_1=3.2\ km (due east)

Then the truck moves, d_2=2.45\ km (due south)

Let d is the magnitude of the truck’s displacement from the warehouse. The net displacement is given by :

d=\sqrt{d_1^2+d_2^2}

d=\sqrt{3.2^2+2.45^2}

d = 4.03 km

Let \theta is the direction of the truck’s displacement from the warehouse from south of east.

\theta=tan^{-1}(\dfrac{2.45}{3.2})

\theta=37.43^{\circ}

So, the magnitude and direction of the truck’s displacement from the warehouse is 4.03 km, 37.4° south of east.

A wave is incident on the surface of a mirror at an angle of 41° with the normal. what can you say about its angle of reflection
Umnica [9.8K]

It's angle of reflection must be 41 degrees

we know, by the first law of reflection that angle of incidence is always equal to angle of reflection..........
