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

To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a _____ scale or _____ scale.
allsm [11]
To measure the strength of an earthquake, you can use either a Richter scale or Mercalli scale. Richter scale uses the amplitued of the wave and the distance from the source. Mercalli scale uses observations of people and is not considered to be scientific as Richter scale.

How to convert acceleration to velocity.
Nana76 [90]

You can't. Velocity and acceleration measure two different things, so their units are incompatible. It's like asking, "How many meters does this book weigh?"

Maybe you mean "find" acceleration using given velocities, or a velocity function?

A proton moving at 8.00 106 m/s through a magnetic field of magnitude 1.72 T experiences a magnetic force of magnitude 7.20 10-1
gladu [14]

Answer:

19.1 deg

Explanation:

v = speed of the proton = 8 x 10⁶ m/s

B = magnitude of the magnetic field = 1.72 T

q = magnitude of charge on the proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

F = magnitude of magnetic force on the proton = 7.20 x 10⁻¹³ N

θ = Angle between proton's velocity and magnetic field

magnitude of magnetic force on the proton is given as

F = q v B Sinθ

7.20 x 10⁻¹³ = (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹) (8 x 10⁶) (1.72) Sinθ

Sinθ = 0.327

θ = 19.1 deg

Describe the octet rule in terms of noble-gas configurations and potential energy
Wittaler [7]
Elements will gain or lose electrons to form a noble gas configuration. Atoms that meet the octet rule are stable because their valence electrons have a relatively low potential energy. Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.
