A stationary siren creates an 894 Hz

Physics
1 answer:
valentina_108 [34]3 years ago

Answer:

12.3 m/s

Explanation:

The Doppler equation describes how sound frequency depends on relative velocities:

fr = fs (c + vr)/(c + vs),

where fr is the frequency heard by the receiver,

fs is the frequency emitted at the source,

c is the speed of sound,

vr is the velocity of the receiver,

and vs is the velocity of the source.

Note: vr is positive if the receiver is moving towards the source, negative if away.

Conversely, vs is positive if the receiver is moving away from the source, and negative if towards.

Given:

fs = 894 Hz

fr = 926 Hz

c = 343 m/s

vs = 0 m/s

Find: vr

926 = 894 (343 + vr) / (343 + 0)

vr = 12.3

The speed of the car is 12.3 m/s.

n ultraviolet light beam having a wavelength of 130 nm is incident on a molybdenum surface with a work function of 4.2 eV. How f
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

The speed of the electron is 1.371 x 10⁶ m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

wavelength of the ultraviolet light beam, λ = 130 nm = 130 x 10⁻⁹ m

the work function of the molybdenum surface, W₀ = 4.2 eV = 6.728 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

The energy of the incident light is given by;

E = hf

where;

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ J/s

f = c / λ

E = \frac{hc}{\lambda} \\\\E = \frac{6.626*10^{-34} *3*10^{8}}{130*10^{-9}} \\\\E = 15.291*10^{-19} \ J

Photo electric effect equation is given by;

E = W₀ + K.E

Where;

K.E is the kinetic energy of the emitted electron

K.E = E - W₀

K.E = 15.291 x 10⁻¹⁹ J - 6.728 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

K.E = 8.563 x 10⁻¹⁹ J

Kinetic energy of the emitted electron is given by;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

m is mass of the electron = 9.11 x 10⁻³¹ kg

v is the speed of the electron

v = \sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m} } \\\\v =  \sqrt{\frac{2*8.563*10^{-19}}{9.11*10^{-31}}}\\\\v = 1.371 *10^{6} \ m/s

Therefore, the speed of the electron is 1.371 x 10⁶ m/s.

Look at the periodic table which statement about the elements on the periodic table is true
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer: B

Explanation:

The reactivity of alkaline metal ( example group one ) increases down the group because of the increase in atomic mass from the top to the bottom of the group. As the mass increases, the force between the nucleus and the valence electron gets weaker and the atom will easily give up the electron as a result of this which eventually increases its reactivity.

The reactivity of halogens decreases as atomic mass increases. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

A projectile is fired with an initial speed of 40 m/s at an angle of elevation of 30∘. Find the following: (Assume air resistanc
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

a. 2.0secs

b. 20.4m

c. 4.0secs

d. 141.2m

e. 40m/s, ∅= -30°

Explanation:

The following Data are giving

Initial speed U=40m/s

angle of elevation,∅=30°

a. the expression for the time to attain the maximum height is expressed as

t=\frac{usin\alpha }{g}

where g is the acceleration due to gravity, and the value is 9.81m/s if we substitute values we arrive at

t=40sin30/9.81\\t=2.0secs

b. the expression for the maximum height is expressed as

H=\frac{u^{2}sin^{2}\alpha  }{2g} \\H=\frac{40^{2}0.25 }{2*9.81} \\H=20.4m

c. The time to hit the ground is the total time of flight which is twice the time to reach the maximum height ,

Hence T=2t

T=2*2.0

T=4.0secs

d. The range of the projectile is expressed as

R=\frac{U^{2}sin2\alpha}{g}\\R=\frac{40^{2}sin60}{9.81}\\R=141.2m

e. The landing speed is the same as the initial projected speed but in opposite direction

Hence the landing speed is 40m/s at angle of -30°

In general, the time it takes from when in interstellar cloud fragment first begins collapsing until it gives birth to a main-se
erik [133]

Answer:

longer for less massive stars.

Explanation:

A star is a giant astronomical or celestial object that is comprised of a luminous sphere of plasma, binded together by its own gravitational force.

It is typically made up of two (2) main hot gas, Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He).

Some of the examples of stars are Canopus, Sun (closest to the Earth), Betelgeus, Antares, Vega etc.

Generally, the time taken for the collapse of an interstellar cloud fragment to the period (time) when a main-sequence star is given birth to, is usually longer for less massive stars.

This ultimately implies that, stars that are not so massive or big in size are transformed from interstellar cloud fragment to a main-sequence star is lesser.

If ∆H = + VE , THEN WHAT REACTION IT IS<br>1) exothermic<br>2) endothermic​
podryga [215]

Answer:

endothermic

Explanation:

An endothermic is any process with an increase in the enthalpy H (or internal energy U) of the system. In such a process, a closed system usually absorbs thermal energy from its surroundings, which is heat transfer into the system.
