If a source of sound waves is rapidly approaching a person, the sound heard by the person appears to have

velikii [3]

Correct answer choice is:

D. A frequency higher than the original frequency.

Explanation:

This is a true case of Doppler's effect. The Doppler effect can be defined as the effect originated by a traveling source of waves in which there is a visible higher variation in pulse for observers towards what the source is progressing and a visible descending shift in rate for observers from what the source is dropping.

Sam drives her scooter 7 kilometres north. She stops for lunch and then drives

Talja [164]

Answer:

1. Distance travelled = 12 km.

2. Displacement = 8.6 km

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Distance 1 (d₁) = 7 km

Distance 2 (d₂) = 5 km

Total distance =?

Displacement =?

1. Determination of the distance travelled.

Distance 1 (d₁) = 7 km

Distance 2 (d₂) = 5 km

Total distance (dₜ) =?

dₜ = d₁ + d₂

dₜ = 7 + 5

dₜ = 12 km

2. Determination of the displacement.

In the attached photo, R is the displacement.

We can obtain the value of R by using the pythagoras theory as illustrated below:

R² = 7² + 5²

R² = 49 + 25

R² = 74

Take the square root of both side

R = √74

R = 8.6 km

A light wave encounters a partial physical barrier, such as a wall with a hole in it. What is MOST LIKELY to occur?

tatiyna

Most likely, the light wave will be absorbed by the wall. Without any information as to the size and color of the wall, the location and size of the hole, or the location of the light wave, this is a generalized probability problem. For all of the places the light could be, it's more likely that it hits the wall than the hole (if the hole is less than 50% of the area of the wall).

An inductor in an LC circuit has a maximum current of 2.4 A and a maximum energy of 56 mJ.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The energy stored in the capacitor, when the current in the inductor is 1.2 A, is 41.6 mJ.

Explanation:

In a LC oscillating circuit, the energy is stored in the electric field (between the plates of the capacitor) and in the magnetic field (surrounding the wires of the inductor).

At any time, the sum of both energies can be expressed as follows:

E = 1/2 Q² / C + 1/2 L I²

In this type of circuit, energy oscillates, which means that it is exchanging between both fields all time.

When the capacitor is completely discharged, all the energy is stored in the magnetic field, and at that time, the current is maximum.

The total energy, when I is maximum, can be written as follows:

E = 1/2 L I² (1)

In our case, when I= 2.4A, E= 56 mJ.

So, we can find out the value of L, which will allow us to know the value of the magnetic energy at any time, having the value of the instantaneous current.

Solving for L in (1):

L = 2 *.56 mJ / (2.4)² A² = 20 mH

The next step is getting the value of the energy stored in the inductor, when I = 1.2 A, as follows:

Em = 1/2 *20 mH.* (1.2)² A² = 14.4 mJ

As the total energy must be always the same, i.e., 56 mJ, the energy stored in the capacitor, assuming no losses, must be the difference between the total energy and the one stored in the magnetic field:

Ec = 56 mJ - 14.4 mJ = 41.6 mJ
