The Doppler effect is the apparent change in frequency due to the movement of the source and the observer. This means an object

making sound moving towards you will appear to have a higher pitch and an object making sound moving away from you will appear to have a lower pitch. This concept also applies to light. How?

Answer:

Doppler effect changes the wavelength of the light emitted, depending upon whether source is moving away or coming towards the observer(detector).

Explanation:

Doppler effect in light is actually a relativistic effect but somewhat similar to the one which happens in sound waves.

When the source is moving away from the detector, the wavelength of the light emitted from the source appears to be increased as seen by the detector, as a result the frequency decreases(we know that frequency of light= speed of light/wavelength of light. Here speed of light is constant and frequency of light is inversely proportional to its wavelength)

Due to this decrease in frequency the light emitted from the source appears more red, since red color is on low frequency side in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Similarly for the source moving towards the detector, the wavelength appears to be decreased, thereby resulting in increase in frequency and the source appears blue. The shift in frequency is known as doppler shift.

The shift in frequency when the source is moving away is known as redshift and the one where the source is moving towards detector is known as blueshift

DochEvi [55]
Based on the given details with this question, I can say that the direction of motion is not conserved. This is because the boat is subjected to an external force because of water resistance. So, the answer for this question would be NO.

Speed is the ratio of the distance an object moves to
guajiro [1.7K]
A - the amount of time needed to travel the distance

The formula for speed is distance/time and the unit is m/s. Therefore you divide the distance travelled by the time it took to travel it.

A soccer ball of mass 0.35 kg is rolling with velocity 0, 0, 1.8 m/s, when you kick it. Your kick delivers an impulse of magnitu
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

position 9.58 m

Explanation:

In impulse exercises and amount of movement, we always assume that the contact time is small,

     I = Δp

With this expression we can calculate the final speed

     I = m Vf - m Vo

    Vf = (I + mVo) / m

    Vf = (1.8 + 0.35 1.8) /0.35

    Vf = 6.94 m / s

To calculate the acceleration of the ball we use Newton's second law, after finishing the impulse

     ∑ F = m a

     fr = m a

     a = fr / m

     a = -0.26 / 0.35

     a = -0.74 m/s²

A negative sign indicates that this acceleration is slowing the ball

Now we have speed and time acceleration, so we can use the kinematic equations to find the position at 1.5 s

   

      X = Vo t + ½ to t²

 In this case Vo is the speed with which the ball comes out after the impulse 6.94

     X = 6.94 1.5 + ½ (-0.74) 1.522

     X = 9.58 m
