What frequency will you hear if a truck is driving toward you at 20 m/s sounding a horn of frequency 300 Hz. Assume the speed of

sound to be 340 m/s.

Answer:

=319Hz

Explanation:

This question is on sound waves

General formulae;

Frequency of observer= f of source*[ (v of sound+ v of observer)/(v of sound-v of source)]

where f is frequency and v is velocity

Given;

Velocity of sound = 340m/s

frequency of source = 300 Hz

Velocity of observer=0m/s

Velocity of source/truck= 20m/s

Substitute values in the formulae;

Frequency of observer= 300× {(340+0)/(340-20)}

                                       =300×{ 340/320}

                                       =300×340/320

                                       =318.75

                                       =319Hz

A parcel of land is in the shape of an isosceles triangle. The base has a length of 425 ft.; the other sides, which are of equal
kogti [31]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 636.6 ft    

Explanation:

Data

base = 425 ft

angle = 39°

See the picture below

1.- Divide the triangle to get two right triangles.

    Now the superior angle will measure 19.5° and the opposite side will measure 212.5 ft

2.- Use the trigonometric function sine to find the hypotenuse

     sin 19.5 = 212.5/hyp

solve for hyp

    hyp = 212.5 / sin 19.5

Result

    hyp = 212.5/ 0.333

    hyp = 636.6 ft

If the vertical component of velocity for a projectile is 7.3 meters/second, what is its hang time?
Kamila [148]
A projectile motion is characterized by motion moving in a direction of an arc. It is acted upon by two component vectors: the horizontal and vertical. These two vectors are independent of each other when it comes to time of flight. The horizontal direction travels at constant speed, while the vertical direction travels at constant acceleration due to gravity, The time for an object to reach the ground would be equal, whether dropped from the sampe point or thrown in a projectile motion. Of course, this is assuming ideality wherein there is no air resistance.

So, the hang up time, or the time the object stayed on air is calculated using this equation:

a = Δv/t
Δv is the change in velocity which is the initial velocity when it was dropped to when it reaches zero velocity when it hits the ground.
9.81 m/s² = |(0 - 7.3)|/t
t = 0.744 seconds
