Answer:

The displacement is 6.4m

Explanation:

Step one:

given

we are told that Lucy runs 4 meters to the east,

then 5 meters south.

let the distance east be the displacement in the x-direction, and south be the y-direction

Step two:

The resultant of the x and y displacement is the magnitude of the total displacement z

applying Pythagoras theorem we have

z=√x^2+y^2

z=√4^2+5^2

z=√16+25

z=√41

z=6.4m

A car horn emits a frequency of 400 Hz. A car traveling at 20.0 m/s sounds the horn as it approaches a stationary pedestrian. Wh

Temka [501]

Answer:

The observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the source, Fs = 400 Hz

speed of the car as it approaches the stationary observer, Vs = 20 m/s

Based on Doppler effect, as the car the approaches the stationary observer, the observed frequency will be higher than the transmitted (source) frequency because of decrease in distance between the car and the observer.

The observed frequency is calculated as;

$F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\$

where;

F₀ is the observed frequency

v is the speed of sound in air = 340 m/s

$F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\400 = F_o [\frac{340}{20 + 340} ] \\\\400 = F_o (0.9444) \\\\F_o = \frac{400}{0.9444} \\\\F_o = 423.55 \ Hz \\$

F₀ ≅ 424 Hz.

Therefore, the observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.

List each layer of the earth, starting at the crust, and identify one characteristic of each layer.

Savatey [412]

Answer:

Hope it helps

Explanation:

The inner core is solid, the outer core is liquid, and the mantle is solid/plastic. This is due to the relative melting points of the different layers (nickel–iron core, silicate crust and mantle) and the increase in temperature and pressure as depth increases
