Answer:

f'=5.58kHz

Explanation:

This is an example of the Doppler effect, the formula is:

f'=\frac{(v+v_o)}{(v+v_s)}f

Where f is the actual frequency, f' is the observed frequency, v is the velocity of the sound waves, v_o the velocity of the observer (which is negative if the observer is moving away from the source)  and v_s the velocity of the source  (which is negative if is moving towards the observer). For this problem:

f=3.72kHz\\v=342m/s\\v_o=0m/s\\v_s=-114m/s

f'=\frac{(342+0)}{(342-114)}3.72\times10^3\\f'=\frac{342}{228}3.72\times10^3\\f'=(1.5)3.72\times10^3\\f'=5580Hz=5.58kHz

The carbon isotope 14C is used for carbon dating of archeological artifacts. 14C(mass 2.34×10−26kg) decays by the process known
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

2240.92365 m/s

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of electron = 9.11\times 10^{−31}\ kg

v_1 = Speed of electron = 5.7\times 10^7\ m/s

p_2 = Neutrino has a momentum = 7.3\times 10^{-24}\ kg m/s

M = total mass = 2.34\times 10^{-26}\ kg

In the x axis as the momentum is conserved

Mv_x=m_1v_1\\\Rightarrow v_x=\dfrac{m_1v_1}{M}\\\Rightarrow v_x=\dfrac{9.11\times 10^{−31}\times 5.7\times 10^7}{2.34\times 10^{-26}}\\\Rightarrow v_x=2219.10256\ m/s

In the y axis

Mv_y=p_2\\\Rightarrow v_y=\dfrac{p_2}{M}\\\Rightarrow v_y=\dfrac{7.3\times 10^{-24}}{2.34\times 10^{-26}}\\\Rightarrow v_y=311.96581\ m/s

The resultant velocity is

R=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}\\\Rightarrow R=\sqrt{2219.10256^2+311.96581^2}\\\Rightarrow R=2240.92365\ m/s

The recoil speed of the nucleus is 2240.92365 m/s

Imagine your teacher asks you to design an experiment where you test the effect of temperature on the growth of a plant. You hav
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. Dependent variable- The growth of plant in the form of height

2. Independent variable- different temperature

3. Constant variable- The amount of water, amount of sunlight, type of soil.

Explanation:

A Scientific experiment must include three types of variables which are: The independent, dependent and the constant variable.

1. Independent variable- The variable which can be modified or changed either on its own or manually. The variable directly influences the variable to be studied. In the given condition, the independent variable is the different temperature provided to the plants.

2. Dependent variable- The variable which is being studied in the experiment and directly influenced by the independent variable is the growth of the plant which is measured in the form of height.

3. Constant variable- The variable which is kept constant throughout the experiment and remains the same which could be the amount of water amount of sunlight and type of soil.

The "Giant Swing" at a county fair consists of a vertical central shaft with a number of horizontal arms attached at its upper e
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the central shaft rotates , the seat along with passenger also rotates . Their rotation requires a centripetal force of mw²R where m is mass of the passenger and w is the angular velocity and R is radius of the circle in which the passenger rotates.

This force is provided by a component of   T , the tension in the rope from which the passenger hangs . If θ be the angle the rope makes with horizontal ,

T cos θ will provide the centripetal force . So

Tcosθ = mw²R

Tsinθ component will balance the weight .

Tsinθ = mg

Dividing the two equation

Tanθ = \frac{g}{\omega^2R}

Hence for a given w , θ depends upon g or weight .
