The "gas" is ionized and may correctly be described as a fourth state of matter - a plasma - rather than a gas. Both a gas and a plasma would expand indefinitely if not contained somehow but the ionized particles of a plasma could be controlled electromagnetically whereas a gas could not. A typical plasma is contained in an illuminated neon sign.

A motorcycle and a police car are moving toward one another. The police car emits sound with a frequency of 523 Hz and has a spe

Firdavs [7]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Dopler's Law. Dopler describes the change in frequency of a wave in relation to that of an observer who is in motion relative to the Source of the Wave.

It can be described as

$f = \frac{c\pm v_r}{c\pm v_s}f_0$

c = Propagation speed of waves in the medium

$v_r$ = Speed of the receiver relative to the medium

$v_s$ = Speed of the source relative to the medium

$f_0 =$ Frequency emited by the source

The sign depends on whether the receiver or the source approach or move away from each other.

Our values are given by,

$v_s = 32.2m/s \rightarrow$ Velocity of car

$v_r = 14.8 m/s \rightarrow$ velocity of motor

$c = 343m/s \rightarrow$ Velocity of sound

$f_0 = 523Hz \rightarrow$ Frequency emited by the source

Replacing we have that

$f = \frac{c + v_r}{c - v_s}f_0$

$f = \frac{343 + 14.8}{343 - 32}(523)$

$f = 601.7Hz$

Therefore the frequency that hear the motorcyclist is 601.7Hz

Can someone explain how they got their answer or how I get the change in number? :(

enyata [817]

Answer:

See Below

Explanation:

Okay, I thinkkk what it is asking by what you summarzied for me issss:

They split the total time into four quarters. They then took (for the first quarter) the start time. Then when the first quarter ends and the second quarter starts is the "end" time.

They then subtract the start time of the second quarter from the end time of the first quarter.

I hope this helps, good luck! :D

A 70.9-kg boy and a 43.2-kg girl, both wearing skates face each other at rest on a skating rink. The boy pushes the girl, sendin

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of boy $m_b=70.9\ kg$

mass of girl $m_g=43.2\ kg$

speed of girl after push $v_g=4.64\ m/s$

Suppose speed of boy after push is $v_b$

initially momentum of system is zero so final momentum is also zero because momentum is conserved

$P_i=P=f$

$0=m_b\cdot v_b+m_g\cdot v_g$

$v_b=-\frac{m_g}{m_b}\times v_g$

$v_b=-\frac{43.2}{70.9}\times 4.64$

$v_b=-2.82\ m/s$

i.e. velocity of boy is 2.82 m/s towards west
