To develop this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Doppler effect. The frequency of sound perceive by observer changes from source emitting the sound. The frequency received by observer is more than the frequency emitted by the source. The expression to find the frequency received by the person is,
= Frequency of the source
= Speed of sound
= Speed of source
The velocity of the ambulance is
Replacing at the expression to frequency of observer we have,
Therefore the frequency receive by observer is 878Hz
Answer:
d) The speed of the astronaut
Explanation:
The sentence describes the speed of the astronaut. This speed value is 10meters per minute.
Now let us understand why;
- Speed is the distance divided by time. It is a scalar quantity without regard for direction but it has magnitude.
- The value 10meters per minute clearly shows this instance. We do not know the direction the astronaut is moving towards.
- Velocity, like speed is the displacement of a body with time. It is a vector quantity and it shows the direction of motion.
- For example, 10m/s due west is a velocity value because we know the direction.
Therefore, since there is no directional sense, the value indicates speed.
Earth’s tilt from its axis.
For explanation:
The angle in which Earth is at is 23.5°. This causes its tilt which affects how the Sun’s light hits Earth
Complete question :
NASA is concerned about the ability of a future lunar outpost to store the supplies necessary to support the astronauts the supply storage area of the lunar outpost where gravity is 1.63m/s/s can only support 1 x 10 over 5 N. What is the maximum WEIGHT of supplies, as measured on EARTH, NASA should plan on sending to the lunar outpost?
Answer:
601000 N
Explanation:
Given that :
Acceleration due to gravity at lunar outpost = 1.6m/s²
Supported Weight of supplies = 1 * 10^5 N
Acceleration due to gravity on the earth surface = 9.8m/s²
Maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH :
Ratio of earth gravity to lunar post gravity:
(Earth gravity / Lunar post gravity) ;
(9.8 / 1.63) = 6.01
Hence, maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH should be :
6.01 * (1 × 10^5)
6.01 × 10^5
= 601000 N
