Answer:

The correct choice is

A) the sound waves were pushed closer together.

Explanation:

As the ambulance gets closer, the distance between the ambulance and marge decreases and so does the wavelength of the siren observed by marge. As the wavelength decrease and speed remains the same for the siren, the frequency of the siren increases because wavelength, frequency and speed are related as

Frequency = Speed/wavelength

Clearly, the frequency is inversely related to wavelength.

A man is walking away from a lamppost with a light source h = 6 m above the ground. the man is m = 2 m tall. how long is the man

Llana [10]

Answer;

= 4 m is the length of the man's shadow.

Explanation;

2/x=6/(8+x) cross multiply.

6x=2(8+x)

6x=16+2x

6x-2x=16

4x=16

x=2=16/4

x=4 m. is the length of the man's shadow.

A 4.0kg block is sliding with a constant velocity of 3.0m/s on a frictionless table that is 0.5m high. If all of the block’s ene

MArishka [77]

Answer:

Velocity = 4.33[m/s]

Explanation:

The total energy or mechanical energy is the sum of the potential energy plus the kinetic energy, as it is known the velocity and the height, we can determine the total energy.

$E_{M}=E_{p} + E_{k} \\E_{p} = potential energy [J]\\E_{k} = kinetic energy [J]\\where:\\E_{p} =m*g*h\\E_{p} = 4*9.81*0.5=19.62[J]\\E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *4*(3)^{2} \\E_{k}=18[J]\\Therefore\\E_{M} =18+19.62\\E_{M}=37.62[J]$

All this energy will become kinetic energy and we can find the velocity.

$37.62=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\v=\sqrt{\frac{37.62*2}{4} } \\v=4.33[m/s]$

When two point charges are a distance d part, the electric force that each one feels from the other has magnitude F. In order to

Serjik [45]

Answer:

E) d/sqrt2

Explanation:

The initial electric force between the two charge is given by:

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the two charges

d is the separation between the two charges

We can also rewrite it as

$d=\sqrt{k\frac{q_1 q_2}{F}}$

So if we want to make the force F twice as strong,

F' = 2F

the new distance between the charges would be

$d'=\sqrt{k\frac{q_1 q_2}{(2F)}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\sqrt{k\frac{q_1 q_2}{(2F)}}=\frac{d}{\sqrt{2}}$

so the correct option is E.

This is a conversion problem. 760 Torr is equal to 1 atmosphere. so we can can solve now. 5,550torr*(1atmosphere/760torr)=7.3atmospheres. since the two torrs cancel out with cross multiplication we are left in atmosphere units.
