It's an electric motor that converts electric energy into Mechanical energy
By adding up all the individual forces of the object
Answer: 0.4 m
Explanation:
Given
Speed of ambulance, vs = 61.9 m/s
Speed of car = 28.5 m/s
Frequency of ambulance siren, f = 694 Hz
Velocity of sound in air, v = 343 m/s
With speed of ambulance being (61.9 m/s) -> We solve using
fd = f(v + vr) / (v - vs), where vr = 0
fd = 694 * (343 + 0) / (343 - 61.9)
fd = 694 * (343 / 281.1)
fd = 694 * 1.22
fd = 847 Hz
Recall,
λ = v/f
λ = 343/847
λ = 0.4 m
Therefore, the wavelength of the sound of the ambulance’s siren if you are standing at the position of the car is 0.4 m
