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.

A war wolf is a device used during the middle ages to assault fortifications with large rocks. A simple trebuchet is constructed

Katarina [22]

Answer:v=41.23 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of heavy object $m_1=52 kg$

distance of $m_1$ from the axle $r_1=14 cm$

mass of rock $m_2=123 gm$

Length of rod $=4.1 m$

distance of $m_2$ from axle $r_2=4.1-0.14=3.96 m$

Net torque acting is

$T_{net}=m_1gr_1-m_2gr_2$

$T_{net}=52\times 0.14\times g-0.123\times 3.96\times g$

$T_{net}=6.793\times 9.8$

$T_{net}=66.57 N-m$

Work done by $T_{net}$ is converted to rock kinetic Energy

thus

$T_{net}\times \theta =\frac{mv^2}{2}$

Where $\theta =angle\ turned =\frac{\pi }{2}$

$v= velocity\ at\ launch$

$66.57\times \frac{\pi }{2}=\frac{0.123\times v^2}{2}$

$v^2=66.57\times \pi$

$v=\sqrt{1700.511}$

$v=41.23 m/s$

Which rational number could be graphed between 0 and 1?A number line going from negative 5 to positive 3 in increments of 1.Nega

vovikov84 [41]

In order to find which rational number is between 0 and 1, let's convert them into their decimal form:

$\begin{gathered} \text{negative one-half:} \\ -\frac{1}{2}=-0.5 \\ \\ \text{one}-\text{fourth:} \\ \frac{1}{4}=0.25 \\ \\ \text{three}-\text{halves:} \\ 3\cdot\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}=1.5 \\ \\ 1.75 \end{gathered}$

Looking at the numbers in their decimal form, we can see that the number between 0 and 1 is one-fourth, therefore the correct option is the second one.

What is a constellation as astronomers define it today? What does it mean when an astronomer says, “I saw a comet in Orion last

MissTica

Explanation:

Constellation: The complete sky has been divided in 88 different areas, in a way we have divided Earth in countries, not necessarily having same shapes and size. These 88 areas are known as constellations. These contains a lot of stars. When we join the brightest stars together we can imagine a shape out of them which is called as Asterism. Most of the people are unaware of this difference. Some of the famous constellations are Orion, Taurus, Gemini, Hydra, Ursa Major etc.

When an astronomer says that there is a comet is in the Orion, he means that a comet is in the boundaries of Orion constellation.
