Answer:

A )

Explanation:

This change in frequency observation occur due to doppler effect

if the wave source moves,In the time between one wave peak being emitted and the next, the source will have moved so that the shells will no longer be concentric. The wavefronts will get closer together in front of the source as it travels and will be further apart behind it.  (see the graph)

when the person standing still in front of the ambulance, he will observe a <em>higher frequency </em>than before as the source travels towards them.

f_(observed)=\frac{V_(wave)}{V_(wave)-V_(source)} *f_(original)

The pitch we hear depends on the frequency of the sound wave.

A high frequency corresponds to a high pitch

as we hear a higher frequency , it makes the <em>pitch higher</em> too

A storm 10.0 km in diameter has wind speeds of 10.0 m/s. What is its angular velocity in radians per second
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The value is w= 2*10^{-3} \  rad/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The diameter of the storm is  d =  10.0 \  km  =  10 000 \  m

   The wind speed is  v  =  10.0 \  m/s

   

Generally the radius is mathematically represented as

       r =  \frac{d}{2}

=>  r =  \frac{10000}{2}

=>    r =  5000 \ m

Generally the angular velocity is mathematically represented as  

        w= \frac{v}{r}

=>     w= \frac{10}{5000}

=>     w= 2*10^{-3} \  rad/s

Sketch the electric field around these two objects if they have the same sign of charge. Make a separate drawing showing equipot
diamong [38]

Answer:

* far from one of the charges, the field of the other charge is small and can be neglected

* on the outside of the loads the fields are added territorially

* between the charges the two fields tend to vanish

Explanation:

The electric field around two objects with charge of the same sign, for simplicity suppose that the objects have positive point spherical charges,

          E = k q / r2

bold letters indicate vectors, therefore the total electric field is

           E_total = E1 + E2

the module of this field is

           E_total = E1- E2

therefore we can outline this field

* far from one of the charges, the field of the other charge is small and can be neglected

* on the outside of the loads the fields are added territorially

* between the charges the two fields tend to vanish

An outline of these shows in Attachment A

The equipotential surfaces are defined as being perpendicular to the electric field lines since the electric field and the power difference are related

              E = \frac{dV}{dx} i^ + \frac{dV}{dy} j^ + \frac{dV}{dz} k^ = \Delta V

We can schematize some characteristics of these surfaces

* very close to each load are spherical surfaces

* very far from the load is an elliptical surface, which envelops the loads

* between them there is a point of zero potential point C

See attached part B

A sailcraft is stalled on a windless day. A fan is attached to the craft and blows air into the sail which bounces backward upon
mylen [45]

Answer:

Impulse = change in momentum w bounce

There are 2 impulses acting. Recoil of the fan going the negative direction and the impulse of the air bouncing off the sail. The greater impulse will bounce so the direction will be to the right moving the craft.
