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}

Answer:

A. It makes astronauts weightless.

Explanation:

Gravity does not make astronauts feel weightless. Astronauts are weightless because they are orbiting at the same rate as their shuttle.

Although the force of gravity weakens as one moves away from the earth surface, it does not mean that this force is absent in orbit

  • Gravitational force has a constant acceleration value near the earth surface which is commonly known to be 9.8m/s².
  • It is a force of attraction tending to hold and bind bodies together so far they have mass.
  • This force keeps every thing from escaping space-ward from the earth surface.

Interactive Solution 28.5 illustrates one way to model this problem. A 7.11-kg object oscillates back and forth at the end of a
____ [38]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the object, m = 7.11 kg

Spring constant of the spring, k = 61.6 N/m

Speed of the observer, v=2.79\times 10^8\ m/s

We need to find the time period of oscillation observed by the observed. The time period of oscillation is given by :

t_o=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}} \\\\t_o=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{7.11}{61.6}} \\\\t_o=2.13\ s

Time period of oscillation measured by the observer is :

t=\dfrac{t_o}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}} }\\\\t=\dfrac{2.13}{\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(2.79\times 10^8)^2}{(3\times 10^8)^2}} }\\\\t=5.79\ s

So, the time period of oscillation measured by the observer is 5.79 seconds.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

735 J/kg/C

Explanation:

Q = mcT

943 = (0.447)( c )(2.87)

1.28289c = 943

c = <u>7</u><u>3</u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>J</u><u>/</u><u>k</u><u>g</u><u>/</u><u>C</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>3</u><u> </u><u>s</u><u>f</u><u>)</u>

Three long parallel wires each carry 2.0-A currents in the same direction. The wires are oriented vertically, and they pass thro
blagie [28]

Answer:

21.2\times 10^{-6} T

Explanation:

i  = magnitude of current in each wire = 2.0 A

a  = length of the side of the square = 4 cm = 0.04 m

r  = length of the diagonal of the square = \sqrt{2} a = \sqrt{2} (0.04) = 0.057 m

B = magnitude of magnetic field by wires at A and C

B = \left ( \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi } \right )\left ( \frac{2i}{a} \right )

B = (10^{-7}) \left ( \frac{2(2)}{0.04} \right )

B = 10\times 10^{-6} T

B' = magnitude of magnetic field by wire at B

B' = \left ( \frac{\mu _{o}}{4\pi } \right )\left ( \frac{2i}{r} \right )

B' = (10^{-7}) \left ( \frac{2(2)}{0.057} \right )

B' = 7.02\times 10^{-6} T

Net magnitude of the magnetic field at D is given as

B_{net} = \sqrt{B^{2}+B^{2}} + B'

B_{net} = \sqrt{2} B + B'

B_{net} = \sqrt{2} (10\times 10^{-6}) + (7.02\times 10^{-6})

B_{net} = 21.2\times 10^{-6} T
