A parked car's horn (belonging to a musician) emits a concert A of frequency 440 on a day when the speed of sound is 342 m/s. Yo

u are in a car speeding along toward the parked car at a speed that makes the pitch appear to be A# (466HZ). At what speed in meters per second are you traveling?

Answer:

19.08 m/s

Explanation:

f = actual frequency emitted by the parked car's horn = 440 Hz

V = speed of sound = 342 m/s

f' = frequency of the horn observed by you = 466 Hz

v = speed of your car moving towards the parked car = ?

frequency of the horn observed by you is given as

f' = \frac{Vf}{V - v}

466 = \frac{(342)(440)}{342 - v}

v = 19.08 m/s

Two poles are connected by a wire that is also connected to the ground. The first pole is 20ft tall and the second pole is 10ft
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer: 31.6ft

Explanation:

Check the attachment for the diagram.

According to the right angle triangle AEC, we will use Pythagoras theorem to get |AC|. Note that |AE| = |AB| - |CD|

that is 20ft - 10ft = 10ft

According to the theorem, the square of the sum of the adjacent side and the opposite side is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

|AE|^2 + |EC|^2 = |AC|^2

10^2 + 30^2 = |AC|^2

100 + 900 = |AC|^2

|AC| = √1000

|AC| = 31.6ft

Therefore, the wire should be anchored 31.6ft to the ground to minimize the amount of wire needed.

The masses of the two moons are determined to be 2M2M for Moon AA and MM for Moon BB . It is observed that the distance between
seraphim [82]

Answer:

 F_A = 8 F_B

Explanation:

The force exerted by the planet on each moon is given by the law of universal gravitation

        F = G \frac{m M}{r^{2} }

where M is the mass of the planet, m the mass of the moon and r the distance between its centers

let's apply this equation to our case

Moon A

the distance between the planet and the moon A is r and the mass of the moon is 2m

        F_A = G \frac{2m M}{r^{2} }

Moon B

        F_B = G \frac{m M}{(2r)^{2} }

         F_B = G \frac{m M}{4 r^{2} }

the relationship between these forces is

         F_B / F_A = \frac{1}{2 \ 4 } = 1/8

         F_A = 8 F_B

A body from the top of a 180 m high mountain is abandoned. Disregarding air resistance and adopting g = 10m / s2, determine:
elena55 [62]

Answer:

1) 6 seconds

2) 60 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Δy = 180 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

1) Find t.

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

180 m = (0 m/s) t + ½ (10 m/s²) t²

t = 6 s

2) Find v.

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (10 m/s²) (180 m)

v = 60 m/s
