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

What do you mean by shearing stress??​
lord [1]

Answer:

Shear stress, force tending to cause deformation of a material by slippage along a plane or planes parallel to the imposed stress. The resultant shear is of great importance in nature, being intimately related to the downslope movement of earth materials and to earthquakes.

Given that the collision is elastic and glider 2 is initially at rest (v2,i =0), please use below Eqs. to explain why
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 )

Put v2,i =0, in second equation

v2,f= (m2-m1)v2,i + 2m1v1,i/m1+m2

v2,f = 0 + 2m1v1,i/m1+m2

v2,f =  2m1v1,i/m1+m2

In this equation coefficient of v1,i is positive so v2,f and v1,i have the same sign.

2 )

Put m1 < m2  and v2,i =0 in first equation

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i + 2m2v2,1/m1+m2

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i

As m1-m2 is negative , v1f and v1i will have opposite sign.

3 )

Put m1 > m2  and v2,i =0 in first equation

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i + 2m2v2,1/m1+m2

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i

m1 - m2 is positive so v1f and v1i will have same  sign.

4 )

Put m1 = m2 and v2,i =0 in first equation

v1,f= (m1-m2)v1,i

= 0 because m1 = m2

So glider 1 will stop because v1,f = 0 .

A child sleds down a hill with an acceleration of 2.94 m/s2. If her initial speed is 0.0 m/s and her final speed is 17.5 m/s, ho
hram777 [196]

Answer:

The child will take 5.952 seconds to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom.

Explanation:

Given that the child accelerates uniformly and that both initial (v_{o}) and final speeds (v_{f}), measured in meters per second, and acceleration (a), measured in meters per square second, are known, we proceed to use the following kinematic equation to determine the time taken to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom (t), measured in seconds, is:

t = \frac{v_{f}-v_{o}}{a} (1)

If we know that v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, v_{f} = 17.5\,\frac{m}{s} and a = 2.94\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, then the time taken is:

t = \frac{17.5\,\frac{m}{s}-0\,\frac{m}{s} }{2.94\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }

t = 5.952\,s

The child will take 5.952 seconds to travel from the top of the hill to the bottom.

A 5.67-kg block of wood is attached to a spring with a spring constant of 150 N/m. The block is free to slide on a horizontal fr
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

v=0.94 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

M= 5.67 kg

k= 150 N/m

m=1 kg

μ = 0.45

The maximum acceleration of upper block can be μ g.

 a= μ g                          ( g = 10 m/s²)

The maximum acceleration of system will ω²X.

ω = natural frequency

X=maximum displacement

For top stop slipping

μ g  =ω²X

We know for spring mass system natural frequency given as

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{M+m}}

By putting the values

\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{150}{5.67+1}}

ω = 4.47 rad/s

μ g  =ω²X

By putting the values

0.45 x 10 = 4.47² X

X = 0.2 m

From energy conservation

\dfrac{1}{2}kX^2=\dfrac{1}{2}(m+M)v^2

kX^2=(m+M)v^2

150 x 0.2²=6.67 v²

v=0.94 m/s

This is the maximum speed of system.
