A commuter train passes a passenger platform at a constant speed of 39.6 m/s. The train horn is sounded at its characteristic fr

equency of 346 Hz. (a) What overall change in frequency is detected by a person on the platform as the train moves from approaching to receding

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 .

A man rides up in an elevator at 12 m. He gains 6500 J of gravitational potential energy. what is the man's mass?
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

We know that potential energy of a body;

= mass(m)× gravitational acceleration(g) × height(h)

Lets find out the mass of the body

P.E. = mgh

=> 6500J = mass × 9.8m/s^2 × 12m

=>6500J = mass × ( 9.8 × 12 ) × ( m/s^2 × m)

=> 6500 Nm = m × 117.6 × m^2 / s^2

=> 6500/117.6 Ns^2/m = mass [°.° Ns^2/m = kg]

=> 55.272 Kg = mass

Therefore the mass of the body = 55.272 kg ~ <em>6</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>k</em><em>g</em><em> </em>(Ans)

Hope it helps you

IF you are in Space and push a bowling what happens to you and the bowling ball?
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The bowling ball did not change size or shape- the only thing that changed was the amount of gravity that pulls on it. But the mass of the bowling ball would never change. A bowling ball with a mass of 12 pounds on earth will have the mass of 12 pounds on the moon! Mass is the amount of atoms that a space fills.

Explanation:

I hope this helps! :D
