f' = frequency observed by the police car after sound reflected from the vehicle and comes back to police car = 1250 Hz
f = frequency emitted by the police car = 1200 Hz
V = speed of sound = 340 m/s
v = speed of vehicle = ?
frequency observed by the police car is given as
f' = f (V + v)/(V - v)
inserting the values in the above equation
1250 = 1200 (340 + v)/(340 - v)
v = 6.9 m/s
The answer to this statement is true!
Answer:
<em>Force of gravity may not affect a pendulum during its equilibrium state</em>. But the gravity can affect the pendulum when a force occurs in any direction of the bob connected to the cord that makes a swing sideways. The gravity of pendulum never stops, it always accelerates. So the gravity affects the pendulum acceleration and speed.
<em>Similarly the tension in the cord will not affect the pendulum</em><em> </em>but if change in the length of the pendulum while keeping other factors constant changes the length of the period of pendulum. longer pendulum swings with lower frequency than shorter pendulums.
