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.

Consider a 2.54-cm-diameter power line for which the potential difference from the ground, 19.6 m below, to the power line is 11

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

The line charge density is $1.59\times10^{-4}\ C/m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter = 2.54 cm

Distance = 19.6 m

Potential difference = 115 kV

We need to calculate the line charge density

Using formula of potential difference

$V=EA$

$V=\dfrac{\lambda}{2\pi\epsilon_{0}r}\times\pi r^2$

$\lambda=\dfrac{V\times2\epsilon_{0}}{r}$

Where, r = radius

V = potential difference

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{115\times10^{3}\times2\times8.8\times10^{-12}}{1.27\times10^{-2}}$

$\lambda=1.59\times10^{-4}\ C/m$

Hence, The line charge density is $1.59\times10^{-4}\ C/m$

If the kinetic energy of an electron is 4.1e-18 j, what is the speed of the electron? (you can use the approximate (nonrelativis

arlik [135]

The kinetic energy of the electron is
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
where $m=9.1 \cdot 10^{-31} kg$ is the mass of the electron and v its speed. Since we know the value of the kinetic energy, $K=4.1 \cdot 10^{-18} J$ , we can find the value of the speed v:
$v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2\cdot 4.1 \cdot 10^{-18}J}{9.1 \cdot 10^{-31}kg} } = 3\cdot 10^6 m/s$
