Answer:

  f = 409.6 Hz,  the woman hears a higher frequency sound

Explanation:

This is a Doppler effect problem, which is described by the equation for the case of a fixed observer

          f = fo \frac{v}{v \pm v_s}

where the negative sign is for the source approaching the observer

in this case the car is the one that emits the sound and moves away from the intersection

let's calculate

          f = 400  \frac{343}{343-8}

          f = 409.6 Hz

therefore the woman hears a higher frequency sound

Which statement best summarizes Newton's law of action-reaction? *
Tom [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is the third

Force equals mass times acceleration

Explanation:

Newton's second law says that force equals mass times the acceleration of the body

            F = m a

This is the most used way to solve problems

The correct answer is the third

Newton's third law states that forces always work in pairs, by action and reaction

Newton's first law states that an object per macerate with constant speed unless some force modifies this state.

A car travels 60 km in the first 2 hours and 68 km in the next 2 hours.
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:32km/hr

Explanation:

Speed=distance/time

Speed=60/2 =30km/hr speed=68/2=34km/he

Average speed=(30+34)/2 =64/2=32km/hr

What is the speed of a car that traveled 500 meter in 30 seconds?
GenaCL600 [577]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

To find speed, you need to remember the formula:

Speed = distance ÷ time

So plug the given values in:

500 ÷ 30 = 16.66

<h3>So the speed is 16.66m/s (metres per second)</h3>
<h2>Hope this helps!</h2>

A wave travels at a frequency of 387 Hz. What is<br>the period of the wave?<br>​
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

¹/₃₈₇ second

Explanation:

<em>The period of a wave is the reciprocal of its frequency.</em>

So, simply, the frequency is ¹/₃₈₇ second(s), as that is the reciprocal of the frequency, 387 Hz.
