From a vantage point very close to the track at a stock car race, you hear the sound emitted by a moving car. You detect a frequ

ency that is 0.86 times as small as the frequency emitted by the car when it is stationary. The speed of sound is 343 m/s. What is the speed of the car?

Answer:

55.8 m/s

Explanation:

f = Actual frequency of sound emitted by car

f' = frequency observed when the car moves = (0.86)f

V = Speed of sound = 343 m/s

v = Speed of car

Frequency observed is given as

f' = \frac{Vf}{V+v}

(0.86) = \frac{(343)}{343 + v}\\(0.86) = \frac{(343)}{343 + v}\\294.98 + (0.86) v = 343 \\v = 55.8 ms^{-1}

the north end to the south end.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Magnetic field lines from a bar magnet form lines that are closed. The direction of magnetic field is taken to be outward from the North pole of the magnet and in to the South pole of the magnet.
  • A magnetic field refers to  the area surrounding a magnet where a force is exerted on certain objects. These lines are spread out of the north end of the magnet.
  • The magnetic field lines resemble a bubble.

Work done = force * distance moved (in direction of the force)

force= mass* acceleration 

force=58.1N

Lady_Fox [76]
<span>Final Velocity = Vf = 0 m/s --------------> (Vf = 0 because ball's speed at its max height is 0) Initial Velocity = Vi = ? Total time (upward & downward) = 8.0 seconds * Time upward = 4 seconds & ................( As time for ball upward & downward is equal ) * Time downward = 4 seconds.. Gravitational Acceleration = g = -9.8 m/s² Use Equation; Vf = Vi - gt 0 = Vi - 9.8 * 4 0 = Vi - 39.2 39.2 = Vi => Vi = Initial Velocity = 39.2 m/s</span>
