  After giving an intense performance, a confused and disoriented flautist has wandered onto the motorway! They are playing a con
leva [86]
This is a Doppler effect. Generally, if you move to a frequency source, you would detect an increase in frequency and when you move away from a source you would detect a decrease.

For this question, before you pass them, you are actually approaching them, so you would hear a higher frequency than the constant 300 Hz they are playing at.

Using the condensed formula:

 f '   =   ((v <u>+</u> vd)/(v <u>+</u> vs)) * f

Where:  vd = Velocity of the detector.
              vs = Velocity of the frequency source.
              v   =  Velocity of sound in air.
              f '  =  Apparent frequency.
              f    =  Frequency of source.

v = 343 m/s,  vd = detector = 27.8 m/s,  vs = velocity of the source =0. (the flautists are not moving).
f = 300 Hz. 

There would be an overall increase in frequency, so we maintain a plus at the numerator and a minus at the denominator.

 f '   =   ((v + vd)/(v - vs)) * f

f '   =   ((343+ 27.8)/(343 - 0)) * 300
      =   (370.8/343)* 300 =  324.3

Therefore frequency before passing them = 324.3 Hz.

Cheers.

Compare the surface temperature of a red star with the temperature of a yellow star
inna [77]

The surface temperature of a red star is lower than the surface temperature of a yellow star.

Explanation:

For a red star, the peak of the wavelength of the emitted light is in the red spectrum, therefore the average peak wavelength is:

\lambda = 680 nm = 680 \cdot 10^{-9} nm

The corresponding temperature at the surface of the star can be  found by using Wien's displacement law:

T=\frac{b}{\lambda}

where

b=2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m\cdot K is a constant. Substituting, we find

T_r=\frac{2.898\cdot 10^{-3}}{680\cdot 10^{-9}}\sim 4300 K

For a yellow star, the peak of the wavelength of the emitted light is in the yellow spectrum, therefore the average peak wavelength is:

\lambda = 580 nm = 580 \cdot 10^{-9} nm

So we can use again the same equation to find the corresponding surface temperature of a yellow star:

T_y=\frac{2.898\cdot 10^{-3}}{580\cdot 10^{-9}}\sim 5000 K

Therefore, we see that the surface temperature of a red star is lower than the surface temperature of a yellow star.
