1. You are driving along a highway at 35.0 m/s when you hear the siren of a police car approaching you at 44.2 m/s from behind a

nd you perceive the frequency as 1310 Hz. You are relieved that he is in pursuit of a different speeder when he continues past you, but now you perceive the frequency as 1240 Hz. What is the frequency of the siren in the police car

Answer:

The frequency of the siren in the police car is 1270.45 Hz

Explanation:

Here we have

f_d = f\frac{v-v_r}{v-v_s}

f = f_d\frac{v-v_s}{v-v_r} = 1310\frac{v-44.2}{v-35}  

f(v-35) = 1310(v-44.2)

fv -35f = 1310v - 57902....(1)

Also

f_d = f\frac{v+v_r}{v+v_s}

f = f_d\frac{v+v_s}{v+v_r}

f = f_d\frac{v+44.2}{v+35}

f(v + 35) = 1240(v + 44.2)

fv + 35f = 1240v + 54808.....(2)

Subtracting (1) from (2) gives

70f = 112710 -70v

Therefore f = 1610.143 -v

Substituting the value of f in (1) we get

(1610.143 -v)v -35(1610.143 -v) = 1310·v - 57902

Which gives

v²-335.143·v-1546 =0

Factorizing gives

(v + 4.554)(v - 339.697) =0

Therefore, since v is the velocity of sound, we have v = 339.697 m/s

Since our f = 1610.143 -v

f = 1610.143 -339.697 = 1270.45 Hz

A horizontal force of 92.7 N is applied to a 40.5 kg crate on a rough, level surface. If the crate accelerates at 1.13 m/s2, wha
lord [1]

Answer:

The value is F_f =  46.935 \  N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  magnitude of the horizontal force is F  =  92.7 \  N

     The mass of the crate is  m  =  40.5 \  kg

     The acceleration of the crate is  a =  1.13 \ m/s

Generally the net force acting on the crate is mathematically represented as

       F_{net} =  F -  F_f =  ma

Here F_f is force of kinetic friction (in N) acting on the crate

      So  

            92.7  -  F_f =  40.5 * 1.13

=>         F_f =  46.935 \  N

A mass on a spring vibrates in simple harmonic motion at an amplitude of 8.0 cm. If the mass of the object is 0.20 kg and the sp
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Frequency, f = 3.73Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of a simple harmonic 6is given by:

f = w/2pi

But w= Sqrt( k/m)

Where k is the spring constant

And m is the mass

Given:

Mass=0.20kg

Spring constant, k=130N/m

w= Sqrt(130/0.20)

w= Sqrt(650)

w= 25.50 m

Frequency, f = w/2pi

f = 25.50/(2×3.142)

f = 3.73Hz

PLEASE HELP Due Soon!
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:  

When objects collide, energy can be transferred from one object to another, thereby changing their motion. In such collisions, some energy is typically also transferred to the surrounding air; as a result, the air gets heated and sound is produced.
