To find the apparent frequency heard by the driver in the car, we can use the formula for the Doppler effect:
where
f is the original sound of the horn
v is the speed of sound
is the velocity of the observer (the driver and the car), which is positive if the observer is moving towards the source and negative if it is moving away
is the velocity of the sound source (the train), which is positive if the source is moving away from the observer and negative otherwise
In this problem we have, according to the sign convention used:
Substituting, we find:
2. 
The speed of light can be calculated as
where
d is the distance travelled
t is the time taken
In this problem:
is the total distance travelled by the laser beam (twice the distance between the Earth and the Moon)
t = 2.60 s is the time taken
Substituting in the formula,
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. A parallel circuit differ from a series circuit in a sense that a <span>series circuit has one path for electrons, but a parallel circuit has more than one path. In a parallel circuit there two or more paths for current to flow while a series circuit only has one.</span>
Answer:
accuracy refers to the deviation of a measurement from a standard or true value of the quantity being measured
Answer:
230.26 N
Explanation:
Since the speed is constant, acceleration is zero hence the net force will be given by the product of mass, coefficient of friction and acceleration due to gravity
F=0.72*32.6*9.81=230.26 N
Answer:
the period of the 16 m pendulum is twice the period of the 4 m pendulum
Explanation:
Recall that the period (T) of a pendulum of length (L) is defined as:
where "g" is the local acceleration of gravity.
SInce both pendulums are at the same place, "g" is the same for both, and when we compare the two periods, we get:
therefore the period of the 16 m pendulum is twice the period of the 4 m pendulum.
