A motorcycle and a police car are moving toward one another. The police car emits sound with a frequency of 523 Hz and has a spe
Firdavs [7]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Dopler's Law. Dopler describes the change in frequency of a wave in relation to that of an observer who is in motion relative to the Source of the Wave.

It can be described as

f = \frac{c\pm v_r}{c\pm v_s}f_0

c = Propagation speed of waves in the medium

v_r= Speed of the receiver relative to the medium

v_s= Speed of the source relative to the medium

f_0 =Frequency emited by the source

The sign depends on whether the receiver or the source approach or move away from each other.

Our values are given by,

v_s = 32.2m/s \rightarrow Velocity of car

v_r = 14.8 m/s \rightarrow velocity of motor

c = 343m/s \rightarrow Velocity of sound

f_0 = 523Hz \rightarrowFrequency emited by the source

Replacing we have that

f = \frac{c + v_r}{c - v_s}f_0

f = \frac{343 + 14.8}{343 - 32}(523)

f = 601.7Hz

Therefore the frequency that hear the motorcyclist is 601.7Hz

The vector product of vectors A⃗ and B⃗ has magnitude 12.0 m2 and is in the +z-direction.Vector A⃗ has magnitude 4.0 m and is in
g100num [7]

Answer:

θ=180°

Explanation:

The problem says that the vector product of A and B is in the +z-direction, and that the vector A is in the -x-direction. Since vector B has no x-component, and is perpendicular to the z-axis (as A and B are both perpendicular to their vector product), vector B has to be in the y-axis.

Using the right hand rule for vector product, we can test the two possible cases:

  • If vector B is in the +y-axis, the product AxB should be in the -z-axis. Since it is in the +z-axis, this is not correct.

  • If vector B is in the -y-axis, the product AxB should be in the +z-axis. This is the correct option.

Now, the problem says that the angle θ is measured from the +y-direction to the +z-direction. This means that the -y-direction has an angle of 180° (half turn).

A rocket, initially at rest on the ground, accelerates straight upward from rest with constant acceleration 44.1m/s^2 . The acce
ollegr [7]
The acceleration and distance is related to the following expression:
y=v0*t + a*t^2/2 ; v0=0 
y=44.1*100/2 = 2205m 
hence, the speed will be 
v=0 + a*t = 441m/s 
from that height it will just be subjected to the gravitational acceleration 
0=v_acc^2 -2g*y_free 
y_free = v_acc^2/2g = 9922.5m 
<span>y_max = y_acc+y_free = 441+9922.5 =10363.5m</span>

A 403.0-kg copper bar is melted in a smelter. The initial temperature of the copper is 320.0 K. How much heat must the smelter p
aleksklad [387]
The answer is 2.49 x 10^5 KJ. This was obtained (1) use the formula for specific heat to achieve Q or heat then (2) get the energy to melt the copper lastly (3) Subtract both work and the total energy required to completely melt the copper bar is achieved.
