Answer:

77.6 Hz

Explanation:

What frequency is received by a person watching an oncoming ambulance moving at 115 km/h and emitting a steady 753 Hz sound from its siren.

The given parameters are:

Observer speed = 115 km/h

Source frequency = 753 Hz

Speed of sound = 342 m/s

First convert km/h to m/s

Observer speed = (115 × 1000) / 3600

Observer speed = 31.94 m/s

The frequency received by the person will be:

F = fv / ( V - v )

Where

F = frequency received by the person

f = siren frequency

V = speed of sound

v = speed of the ambulance

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

F = (753 × 31.94) / ( 342 - 31.94 )

F = 24050.82 / 310.06

F = 77.568 Hz

Therefore, the frequency received by a person is approximately 77.6Hz

An early method of measuring the speed of light makes use of a rotating slotted wheel. A beam of light passes through one of the
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

4.7 x 10³ rad / s

Explanation:

During the time light goes and comes back , one slot is replaced by next slot while rotating  before the light source

Time taken by light to travel a distance of 2 x 500 m is

= (2 x 500) / 3 x 10⁸

= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ s .

In this time period, two consecutive slots come before the source of light one after another by rotation. There are 400 slots so time taken to make one rotation

= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ x 400

= 13.33 x 10⁻⁴ s

This is the time period so

T = 13.33 X 10⁻⁴

Angular speed

= 2π / T

= \frac{2\times3.14}{13.33\times10^{-4}}

4.7 x 10³ rad / s

Answer:

x^2\neq -\frac{5}{13}

First option

Explanation:

<u>Operations with functions </u>

Given two functions f, g, we can perform a number of operations with them including addition, subtraction, product, division, composition, and many others .

We have

f(x)=20x^3-7x^2+3x-7

g(x)=-13x^2-5

We are required to find

\displaystyle \frac{f}{g}(x)

We simply divide f by g as follows

\displaystyle \frac{f}{g}(x)=\frac{20x^3-7x^2+3x-7}{-13x^2-5}

We know rational functions may have problems if the denominator can be zero for some values of x. We must find out if there are such values and exclude them from the domain of the new-found function. We must ensure

-13x^2-5\neq 0

or equivalently

x^2\neq -\frac{5}{13}

Thus the first option is correct

Note: Since x^2 is always a positive number (for x real), our function does not really have any restriction in its domain

A 3kg horizontal disk of radius 0.2m rotates about its center with an angular velocity of 50rad/s. The edge of the horizontal di
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

From the information given:

The angular speed for the block \omega = 50 \ rad/s

Disk radius (r) = 0.2 m

The block Initial velocity is:

v = r \omega \\ \\  v = (0.2  \times 50) \\ \\  v= 10 \ m/s

Change in the block's angular speed is:

\Delta _{\omega} = \omega - 0 \\ \\ = 50 \ rad/s

However, on the disk, moment of inertIa is:

I= mr^2 \\ \\ I = (3 \times 0.2^2) \\ \\ I = 0.12 \ kgm^2

The time t = 10s

∴

Frictional torques by the wall on the disk is:

T = I \times (\dfrac{\Delta_{\omega}}{t}) \\ \\ = 0.12 \times (\dfrac{50}{10})  \\ \\ =0.6 \ N.m

Finally, the frictional force is calculated as:

F = \dfrac{T}r{}

F= \dfrac{0.6}{0.2} \\ \\ F = 3N
