Choose the scenario in which the sound frequency of the waves is higher.
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

B) the sound source moves towards you at 100 m/sec

Explanation:

The Dopper Effect is a phenomenon that occur when there is relative motion between an observer and a source of a wave. When this situation occurs, there is an apparent shift in frequency of the wave, as observed by the observer.

The apparent frequency observed by the observer is given by

f'=\frac{v\pm v_o}{v\pm v_s}f

where

f is the original frequency of the wave

f' is the apparent frequency

v is the speed of the wave

v_o is the velocity of the observer (positive if moving towards the source of the wave, negative otherwise)

v_s is the velocity of the source (negative if moving towards from the observer, positive otherwise)

In this problem, we want to find the scenario in which the sound frequency is higher.

We see that in all 4 scenarios, the sound source is moving: this means we have to find the scenario in which the denominator of the equation is smaller.

First of all, we notice the sound source moves towards the observer, v_s is negative, so the denominator is higher: this means that the correct option must be either A or B.

Also, we notice that since v_s is negative, a value larger in magnitude will mean a smaller denominator: therefore, the correct answer will be

B) the sound source moves towards you at 100 m/sec

Since this situation will make the denominator of the formula the smallest possible.

The speed of an electric locomotive is 90kmh .express this speed in m/s with method​
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

24.3 m/s

Explanation:

1 kmh = 0.27 m/s, that makes a conversion ratio of 0.27/1kmh

\frac{90 kmh}{1} x \frac{0.27 m/s}{1 kmh}

The "kmh" n the top and bottom cancel out. And  then you just multiply the top 90 x 0.27 and the bottom 1 x 1 to get

\frac{24.3 m/s}{1}

and since its over 1 its just 24.3 m/s

Which of the following remains constant during the motion of a projectile fired from a planet?
trapecia [35]

Answer:

C. Horizontal component of velocity

Explanation:

Object in motion stays in motion,

nothing works against its motion in the horizontal direction, unlike in the vertical direction, gravity pulls object down.

Find the equivalent resistance.
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

18 Ω

Explanation:

As K and F are at the same voltage, we can redraw the diagram as in figure 2

Series resistances add directly, so we get figure 3

Adding parallel resistances gets us to figure 4

Now we can move two 6Ω resistances for clarification in figure 5

As the voltage between C and J will be identically split between D and H, there will be no voltage drop across the middle 6Ω resister and no current through it, identical to an infinite resistance, so that 6Ω can be eliminated as in figure 6

Add series resistances to get to figure 7

Add parallel resistances to get to figure 8

Add series resistances to get to figure 9
