A bird is flying directly toward a stationary bird-watcher and emits a frequency of 1420 Hz. The bird-watcher, however, hears a

frequency of 1456 Hz. What is the speed of the bird, expressed as a percentage of the speed of sound

Answer:

2.47 %

Explanation:

We are given;

Frequency emitted by source(bird); f_s = 1420 Hz

Frequency heard by observer; f_o = 1456 Hz

From doppler shift frequency, we know that;

f_o = f_s [c/(c - c_s)]

Where c_s is speed of source which is the bird and c is speed of sound.

Thus;

Rearranging the equation, we have;

f_s/f_o = (c - c_s)/c

f_s/f_o = 1 - (c_s/c)

Plugging in the relevant values to get ;

1420/1456 = 1 - (c_s/c)

0.9753 = 1 - (c_s/c)

1 - 0.9753 = (c_s/c)

(c_s/c) = 0.0247

Since we want it expressed im percentage,

Thus, (c_s/c) % = 0.0247 x 100 = 2.47 %

A prismatic bar AB of length L and solid circular cross section (diameter d) is loaded by a distributed torque of constant inten
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

a) the maximum shear stress τ_{max} the bar is 16T_{max} /πd³

b) the angle of twist between the ends of the bar is 16tL² / πGd⁴  

Explanation:

Given the data in the question, as illustrated in the image below;

d is the diameter of the prismatic bar of length AB

t is the intensity of distributed torque

(a) Determine the maximum shear stress tmax in the bar

Maximum Applied torque  T_max = tL

we know that;

shear stress τ = 16T/πd³

where d is the diameter

so

τ_{max} = 16T_{max} /πd³

Therefore, the maximum shear stress τ_{max} the bar is 16T_{max} /πd³

(b) Determine the angle of twist between the ends of the bar.

let theta (\theta) be the angle of twist

polar moment of inertia I_p} = πd⁴/32

now from the second image;

lets length dx which is at distance of "x" from "B"

Torque distance x

T(x) = tx

Elemental angle twist = d\theta = T(x)dx / GI_{p}

so

d\theta = tx.dx / G(πd⁴/32)

d\theta = 32tx.dx / πGd⁴

so total angle of twist \theta will be;

\theta =  \int\limits^L_0  \, d\theta

\theta =  \int\limits^L_0  \, 32tx.dx / πGd⁴

\theta = 32t / πGd⁴  \int\limits^L_0  \, xdx

\theta = 32t / πGd⁴ [ L²/2]

\theta = 16tL² / πGd⁴  

Therefore,  the angle of twist between the ends of the bar is 16tL² / πGd⁴

atroni [7]

Answer:

Balances and Scales

A balance compares an object with a known mass to the object in question. One example of a balance is the triple beam balance. The standard unit of measure for mass is based on the metric system and is typically denoted as kilograms or grams.

Damping is negligible for a 0.135-kg object hanging from a light, 6.30-N/m spring. A sinusoidal force with an amplitude of 1.70
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

0.72 Hz minimum frequency

Explanation:

When the damping is negligible,Amplitude is given as

A = (F/m)/[\sqrt{(\omega ^{^{2}}-\omega _{o}^{2}})^2

here \omega _{o}^{2}= k/m = (6.30)/(0.135) = 46.67 N/m kg

F / mA = 1.70/(0.135)(0.480) = 26.2 N/m kg

From the above equation , rearranging for ω,

\omega ^{2}= \omega _{o}^{2}\pm F/m

⇒ ω² =46.67 ± 26.2 = 72.87 or 20.47

⇒ ω = 8.53 or 4.52 rad/s

Frequency = f

ω=2 π f

⇒ f = ω / 2π =  8.53 /6.28  or 4.52 / 6.28 = 1.36 Hz or 0.72 Hz

The lower frequency is 0.72 Hz and higher is 1.36 Hz

Suzanne notices that when sunlight strikes the surface of a calm lake, it creates a glare. Which statement accurately describes
kumpel [21]
<span>The answer is C. This is called polarization of light by reflection. The sunlight is reflected at a parallel angle from on the surface plane of the water from which it bounces from. The glare is due to this polarization of sun beams at an angle with respect to the viewer. </span>
