Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply Doppler's effect to solve the problem .

Formula for apparent frequency for a source of sound approaching an observer is as follows .

f₁ = f₀ V / (V - v )

where f₁ and f₀ are apparent and real frequency of source , V and v is velocity of sound and velocity of approaching source respectively .

Putting the given values and knowing that speed of sound is 340 m /s

f₁ =346x 340 / (340 - 39.6 )

f₁ = 391.6 Hz

In case of receding train , the formula is

f₂ = f₀ V / (V + v )

Putting the values

f₂ = 346x 340 / (340 + 39.6 )

= 309.9 Hz

Change in frequency =  391.6 - 309.9

= 81.7 Hz .

Question:
exis [7]

Answer:

She can swing 1.0 m high.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The mechanical energy of Jane (ME) can be calculated by adding her gravitational potential (PE) plus her kinetic energy (KE).

The kinetic energy is calculated as follows:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

And the potential energy:

PE = m · g · h

Where:

m = mass of Jane.

v = velocity.

g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²).

h = height.

Then:

ME = KE + PE

Initially, Jane is running on the surface on which we assume that the gravitational potential energy of Jane is zero (the height is zero). Then:

ME = KE + PE      (PE = 0)

ME = KE

ME = 1/2 · m · (4.5 m/s)²

ME = m · 10.125 m²/s²

When Jane reaches the maximum height, its velocity is zero (all the kinetic energy was converted into potential energy). Then, the mechanical energy will be:

ME = KE + PE      (KE = 0)

ME = PE

ME = m · 9.8 m/s² · h

Then, equallizing both expressions of ME and solving for h:

m · 10.125 m²/s² =  m · 9.8 m/s² · h

10.125 m²/s² / 9.8 m/s²  = h

h = 1.0 m

She can swing 1.0 m high (if we neglect dissipative forces such as air resistance).

When working with a powered instrument, the swirling effect produced by the water stream within the confined space of a periodon
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Acoustic microstreaming

Explanation:

Acoustic microstreaming is the swirling effect produced by water stream confined in a spaced of a periodontal pocket.

  • It is the movement of water in a particular direction as a result of mechanical pressure within the fluid body.
  • They are often used in dental procedures to remove particulates from the teeth.
  • It mostly relies on the properties of sound waves to achieve this goal
