Answer:
175s
Explanation:
time it takes sunlight to reach the earth in vacuum
C=light speed=299792458m/s
X=1.5x10^8km=1.5x10^11m
c=X/t
T1=X/c
T1=1.5X10^11/299792458=500.34s
time it takes sunlight to reach the earth in water:
First we calculate the speed of light in water taking into account the refractive index
Cw=299792458m/s/1.349=222233104.5m/s
T2=1.5x10^11/222233104.5m/s=675s
additional time it would take for the light to reach the earth
ΔT=T2-T1=675-500=175s
There's supposed to be a blank in the statement, where the answer is supposed to be inserted.
The question is supposed to say: "A wave is a disturbance that carries ______ from one place to another through matter or space".
To answer the question, write the word "<em>energy</em>" in the blank.
Answer:
Generally, the lowest overtone for a pipe open at one end and closed would be at y / 4 where y represents lambda, the wavelength.
Since F (frequency) = c / y Speed/wavelength
F2 / F1 = y1 / y2 because c is the same in both cases
F2 = y1/y2 * F1
F2 = 3 F1 = 750 /sec
Note that L = y1 / 4 = 3 y2 / 4 for these wavelengths to fit in the pipe
and y1 = 3 y2
Answer: The answer is D: 300,000km/s
Explanation:
Answer: The frequency heard will be f = 275.675Hz
Explanation: When an object emitting sound is moving, it occurs a phenomenon called Doppler shift or Doppler effect. What happens is that the sound gets higher when the moving object comes closer the observer and becomes lower after it passes, This change is due to the quantity of waves that passes through an area in an unit of time.
The formula to calculate the Doppler effect is as follows
f = (
) · f₀
f is the observed frequency;
c is the speed of sound;
Vs is velocity of the source;
f₀ is the emitted frequency of source;
Substituting and calculating,
f = 
· 300
f = 275.675 Hz
Thus, the frequency heard by the police officer is 275.675Hz.
