Complete question is;
An experiment is carried out to measure the extension of a rubber band for different loads.
The results are shown in the image attached.
What figure is missing from the table?
Answer:
17.3 cm
Explanation:
The image attached showed values for load, extension and initial length.
Now, the first length there is 15.2 cm and as such it's corresponding extension is 0 because it has no preceding measured length.
The second measured length is 16.2 cm. Since it's initial measured length is 15.2 cm, then the extension has a formula; final length - initial length.
This gives: 16.2 - 15.2 = 1 cm
This corresponds to what is given in the table.
For the next measured length, it is blank but we are given the extension to be 2.1 cm. Now, since the initial measured length is 15.2 cm.
Thus;
2.1 cm = Final length - 15.2 cm
Final length = 15.2 + 2.1
Final length = 17.3 cm
To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Doppler effect. The Doppler effect is the change in the perceived frequency of any wave movement when the emitter, or focus of waves, and the receiver, or observer, move relative to each other. Mathematically it can be described as,
Here,
= Frequency of Source
= Speed of sound
f = Frequency heard before slowing down
f' = Frequency heard after slowing down
v = Speed of the train before slowing down
So if the speed of the train after slowing down will be v/2, we can do a system equation of 2x2 at the two moments, then,
The first equation is,
Now the second expression will be,
Dividing the two expression we have,
Solving for v, we have,
Therefore the speed of the train before and after slowing down is 22.12m/s
