Answer:
f" = 40779.61 Hz
Explanation:
From the question, we see that the bat is the source of the sound wave and is initially at rest and the object is in motion as the observer, thus;
from the Doppler effect equation, we can calculate the initial observed frequency as:
f' = f(1 - (v_o/v))
We are given;
f = 46.2 kHz = 46200 Hz
v_o = 21.8 m/s
v is speed of sound = 343 m/s
Thus;
f' = 46200(1 - (21/343))
f' = 43371.4285 Hz
In the second stage, we see that the bat is now a stationary observer while the object is now the moving source;
Thus, from doppler effect again but this time with the source going away from the obsever, the new observed frequency is;
f" = f'/(1 + (v_o/v))
f" = 43371.4285/(1 + (21.8/343))
f" = 40779.61 Hz
Answer:
The resultant vector is 1 m/s
Explanation:
The resultant vector is 1 m/s west based on triangle law of vector addition, when two sides of a triangle is represented by two vectors, the resultant vector is the third side of the triangle.
The average speed of a moving body is given by:
average speed = total distance / total time
average speed = 560 / 25
22.4 meters per second
The skier is traveling at an average velocity of 22.4 meters per second.
