Observer Frequency = sound frequency x ( speed of sound / speed of sound - speed of car)

= 250 x (340/( 340-15))

= 261.54 Hz

Ajoba and Prav drive to work. Ajoba drives 45 miles in 2.5 hours. Prav drives 74 km in 1 hour 15 min. Work out the difference be

Serggg [28]

Explanation:

We have,

Ajoba and Prav drive to work. Ajoba drives 45 miles in 2.5 hours. Prav drives 74 km in 1 hour 15 min.

1 mile = 1.6 km

45 miles = 72.42 km

74 miles = 119.0 km

1 hour 15 min means 1.25 hours

Average speed of Ajoba is :

$v_1=\dfrac{72.42 }{2.5}=28.96\ km/h$

Average speed of Prav,

$v_2=\dfrac{119}{1.25}=95.2\ km/h$

Difference in average speed of Ajoba and Prav is :

$v=v_2-v_1\\\\v=v_2-v_1\\\\v=95.2-28.96\\\\v=66.24\ km/h$

So, the difference in average speed of Ajoba and Prav is 66.24 km/h.

A simple pendulum consists of a mass m (the "bob") hanging on the end of a thin string of length l and negligible mass. The bob

svetlana [45]

Answer:

The pendulum frequency is (c) the same, or very close to it

Explanation:

The simple pendulum corresponds to a simple harmonic movement, to reach this approximation in the expression of the force the sine of the angle (θ) approaches an angle value, this is only true for small angles, generally less than 15º

Sine (15th) = 0.2588

The angle in radians is 15º π / 180º = 0.26180.2588 / 0.2618

The difference between these two values is less than 1.2%

for smaller angle the difference is reduced more

Therefore, the period for both the 5º and 10º angles is almost the same

What is the benefit of developing the atomic mass unit as a standard unit of mass?

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The atomic mass unit is 1/12 of an atom of carbon 12, and is a very small amount to represent in kilograms:

$1m_{u}=1.66054x10^{-27}kg$

$m_{u}$ is atomic mass unit.

This is why the benefits of the atomic mass unit is that it makes the representation of atomic masses easier in terms of the simplicity of the numbers that are used to represent the masses. Also using the atomic mass unit it is easier to compare the masses of different atoms, These numbers would be very small and would require negative powers of 10 to represent them, so it is more convenient to use the atomic mass unit.
