An experiment is performed to determine how bats capture insects in the dark. A pair of microphones are set up on either end of

a long room with the bat being released on one end and an insect on the other. When the bat begins to chase the insect, the microphone near the bat hears a frequency of 79.79 kHz and the microphone on the other side of the room hears a frequency of 81.63kHz. a) (3pts) What is the speed of the bat

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply Doppler's effect here .

original frequency = 79.79 kHz

apparent frequency due to movement of source ( bat ) = 81.63 Hz

Let the velocity of bat be v .

expression for apparent frequency can be given as follows

n = \frac{n_0V}{V-v}

n is apparent frequency , n₀ is original frequency , V is velocity of light and v is velocity of source of sound

Putting the values

81.63 = \frac{79.79\times 340}{340-v}

340-v = 332.33

v = 7.67 m /s

velocity of bat is 7.67 m /s .

What is the magnitude of the kinetic frictional force
Effectus [21]

The magnitude of the kinetic friction force, ƒk, on an object is. Where μk is called the kinetic friction coefficient and |FN| is the magnitude of the normal force of the surface on the sliding object. The kinetic friction coefficient is entirely determined by the materials of the sliding surfaces. hope it helps

How is Newton’s first law demonstrated by your zip line
Nikitich [7]

Newton's First Law: An object in motion stays in motion, an object at rest stays at rest unless an unbalanced force acts upon it. For example, when zipping down the zip line you will stay in motion unless an outside force interferes. ... The more mass the more force needed.

An object has rotational inertia I. The object, initially at rest, begins to rotate with a constant angular acceleration of magn
butalik [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

initial angular velocity, ωo = 0

angular acceleration = α

time = t

let the angular velocity after time t is ω.

Use first equation of motion for rotational motion

ω = o + α t

ω = αt

The angular momentum is given by

Angular momentum = moment of inertia x angular velocity

L = I x ω

L = I x αt

L = I α t

A player hits a tennis ball in the air with an initial velocity of 32 meters per second at 35 degrees from the vertical how fast
Mamont248 [21]

Answer: 18.35 m/s

Explanation:

At the highest point of trajectory, the vertical component of the velocity would be zero and the tennis ball would have horizontal component of velocity.

It is given that the initial velocity of the ball is 32 m/s and it makes 35° with the vertical. Hence the horizontal component of the velocity,

v sin θ = 32 m/s × sin 35° = 18.35 m/s

Hence, at the highest point in its trajectory, the tennis ball would be moving with the speed  18.35 m/s.
