Brut [27]

Answer: 529.9 Hz

Explanation:

Here we need to use the Doppler equation, so we have:

f' = f*(v + v0)/(v - vs)

Here, f is the frequency = 500Hz

v is the velocity of the wave, = 334m/s

v0 is the velocity of the observer = 20m/s

vs is the velocity of the source = 0m/s

Then we have:

f' = 500Hz*(334m/s + 20m/s)/(334m/s) = 529.9 Hz

Consider two waves defined by the wave functions y1(x,t)=0.50msin(2π3.00mx+2π4.00st) and y2(x,t)=0.50msin(2π6.00mx−2π4.00st). Wh

guapka [62]

Answer:

They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.

Explanation: comparing the wave equation above with the general wave equation

y(x,t) = Asin(2Πft + 2Πx/¶)

Let ¶ be the wavelength

A is the amplitude

f is the frequency

t is the time

They two waves has the same amplitude and frequency but different wavelengths.

A mountain climber, in the process of crossing between two cliffs by a rope, pauses to rest. She weighs 514 N. As the drawing sh

n200080 [17]

Answer:

Part a)

$T_L = 155.4 N$

Part b)

$T_R = 379 N$

Explanation:

As we know that mountain climber is at rest so net force on it must be zero

So we will have force balance in X direction

$T_L cos65 = T_R cos80$

$T_L = 0.41 T_R$

now we will have force balance in Y direction

$mg = T_L sin65 + T_Rsin80$

$514 = 0.906T_L + 0.985T_R$

Part a)

so from above equations we have

$514 = 0.906T_L + 0.985(\frac{T_L}{0.41})$

$514 = 3.3 T_L$

$T_L = 155.4 N$

Part b)

Now for tension in right string we will have

$T_R = \frac{T_L}{0.41}$

$T_R = 379 N$
