Answer:

A) As the source approaches you, the waves are compressed so that the pitch of the noise increases.  

Explanation:

The Doppler Effect occurs when there is relative motion between an observer and the source of a wave. When this happens, there is an apparent shift in the frequency of the wave, as perceived by the observer. In particular, two situations can occur:

1- If the source of the wave is moving towards the observer, the waves are compressed, so that the wavelength of the wave decreases, and therefore the frequency (and so the pitch) increases

2- If the source of the wave is moving away from the observer, the waves are stretched, so that the wavelength of the wave increases, and therefore the frequency (and so the pitch) decreases

An example of Doppler Effect occurs when we hear the sound of the siren of an ambulance.

In this problem, the situation described is situation 1 (sound waves is approaching the observer), so according to the explanation above, the correct answer is

A) As the source approaches you, the waves are compressed so that the pitch of the noise increases.

How do you determine the speed or velocity of an object using a distance vs. time graph
Taya2010 [7]
The speed of an object can be determined from the distance vs time graph.

You know that speed = distance/time

in the graph, distance/time = slope of the curve.

So SPEED IS GIVEN BY THE SLOPE of the curve in the graph.

● If the distance vs time curve is a straight line, parallel to time axis(x-axis), slope is 0. That means speed is 0. So the object is at rest.

● If the distance vs time curve is a straight line, with some non-zero slope; That means speed is nonzero and constant. So the object is in uniform motion.

● If the distance vs time curve is a curved, the slope is changing. That means speed is changing. So the object is in an accelerated motion.

A material that can be hit without shattering is?<br> viscous, flammable, hard, malleable
nika2105 [10]
Malleable

Malleability is a property of matter, that’s specializes in metals, in which these metals can be bended, twisted or formed into a thinner sheets, and not being able to shatter to pieces instead it can be formed into a new shape. Unlike the other three, take for instance hardness. If a hard object such as wood for example when used with an axe it breaks and it is lead to smithereens. Flammable like is when applied to fire can dramatically explode when hit it obviously breaks.

You adjust the temperature so that a sound wave travels more quickly through the air. You increase the temperature from 30 degre
katen-ka-za [31]
To calculate the velocity of the sound wave, we use this formula:
V = 331 + [0.6*T], 
Where V is the velocity and T represents temperature.
When the temperature is 36 degree Celsius, we have 
V = 331 + [0.6 * 36]
V = 331 + 21.6 = 352.6 
Therefore, V = 352.6 m/s.

Astar is 10 light years away from the earth. Suppose it brightens up suddenly today, after how long can we see this change?
Blababa [14]

The phrase "light year" is a <u><em>distance</em></u> ... it's the distance that light travels through vacuum in one year.

When you look at an object located 1 light year away from you, you see it as it was 1 year ago.

If a star located 10 light years away from us suddenly brightens, or dims, or explodes, we see the event <em>10 years later.</em>
