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 .

I would like to know why this is the correct answer
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

see below

Explanation:

First, the obvious, as you press the gas pedal harder the acceleration goes up as well.  Conversely, is you do not press the pedal, you will not accelerate.  This determines that is I press the gas pedal, it will CAUSE the car to accelerate.  This proves causation.

Now, correlation.  The definition of correlation in statistics is any statistical relationship between two random variables or data.  This simply means that these two events are connected to one another.  A POSITIVE correlation is when two correlated events move in the same direction as one another.  I have added a graph to help visualize this.  In this problem as the gas is pressed harder, the acceleration increases.  If the pressure on the pedal was decreased, then the acceleration also decreases.  If the pressure on the pedal is constant, the the acceleration is constant.

I hope this helps!
