A loudspeaker in a parked car is producing sound whose frequency is 20 510 Hz. A healthy young person with normal hearing is sta

nding nearby on the sidewalk but cannot hear the sound because the frequency is too high. When the car is moving, however, this person can hear the sound. (a) Is the car moving toward or away from the person

Answer:

The car must be moving away from the person.

Explanation:

From Doppler's Effect, we know that when a sound source moves towards a stationary observer, the apparent frequency of that sound increases. While the apparent frequency decreases if the source moves away from the stationary observer.

The audible range of frequencies for a human ear is 20 Hz to 20000 Hz. Therefore, in order for the sound of a loud speaker to be audible for the person, the frequency must decrease below 20000 Hz.

<u>Due to this reason, the car must be moving away from the person.</u>

A cube at 101 °C radiates heat at a rate of 67 J/s. If its surface temperature is increased to 166 °C, the rate at which it will
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The rate at which it will radiate heat is closest to 127.2J.

Explanation:

According to Stefan's law, the heat radiated by a black body can be written as:

\frac{dH}{dt} is directly proprtional to the  T^{4}.

where H is the amount of heat radiated and T is the surface temperature .

<u>Example</u> : The heat is transferred by radiation and an example of heat transferred by radiation is the sunlight reaching earth from sun.

<u>Note</u> : Here the temperature is expressed in Kelvin.

  • Initial rate of heat , \frac{dH_{1}}{dt}=67J/s
  • Final rate of heat ,  \frac{dH_{2}}{dt}= unknown
  • Initial temperature , T_{1}=374K
  • Final temperature , T_{2}=439K

\frac{H_1}{T_{1}^4}=\frac{H_2}{T_{2}^4}

H_{2}=67\times1.898

H_{2}=127.2.

The rate at which it will radiate heat is closest to 127.2J.

Which of the following are not correctly balanced reactions?
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

B. 2K + Br2 + 2KBr

D. C + 02 → CO2

Explanation:

In balancing a chemical reaction, the number of atoms on both sides of the expression must be the same in order to obey the law of conservation of mass.

According to the law of conservation of mass, in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed.

 So, let us investigate:

                                                 Number of atoms

                            Reactants                                        Products

K                                  2                                                      2

Br                                 2                                                      2

C + 0₂ → CO₂

C                                1                                                        1

O₂                              2                                                      2

We see that for both equations, the number of atoms on both sides of the expression is the same.

Four point charges, each having a magnitude of 2:00 C, are fixed at the corners of a square whose edges are 4:00m long. Find the
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Distance of each of the charges from the center are equal . If this distance be d

d = .5 x length of diagonal of square

length of diagonal = 4√2

d = .5 x 4√2

= 2√2

potential at a point

V = k Q / r where k is a constant , Q is charge and r is distance of the point from the charge .

k = 9 x 10⁹

Total potential = \frac{9\times10^9\times3 \times2}{2\sqrt{2} } -\frac{9\times10^9 \times2}{2\sqrt{2} }

= \frac{9\times10^9 \times2\times2}{2\sqrt{2} }

= 9 √2 x 10⁹ V .
