Two ice-skaters are skating in circles on a frozen pond. Maria is making large circles with a radius of 12 m and skating 4.5 m/s

. Her friend, Samantha, is making smaller circles with a radius of 6 m but is not skating as quickly, going only 3.8 m/s.
How could each skater increase her centripetal acceleration without changing the size of her path? Explain your reasoning.

Greeley [361]

Answer: 13.4\ m/s

Explanation:

Given

The frequency of the source is f_o=960\ Hz

Change in frequency is 75\ Hz

Speed of sound c=343\ m/s

Suppose v is the velocity of the observer

Doppler frequency is given by

f'=f_o\left(\dfrac{c\pm v_o}{c\pm v_s}\right)

Here, the source is at rest

While approaching source, frequency is

f_1=f_o\left(\dfrac{c+v}{c}\right)\quad \ldots(i)

While leaving, frequency is

f_2=f_o\left(\dfrac{c-v}{c}\right)\quad \ldots(ii)

The difference in the frequency is

\Rightarrow f_1-f_2=75\\\\\Rightarrow f_o\left(\dfrac{c+v}{c}\right)-f_o\left(\dfrac{c-v}{c}\right)=75\\\\\Rightarrow f_o\left(\dfrac{2v}{c}\right)=75\\\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{75\times 343}{2\times 960}\\\\\Rightarrow v=13.39\approx 13.4\ m/s

A thermally isolated system consists of a hot piece of aluminum and a cold piece of copper. The aluminum and the copper are in t
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

the amount of heat that gets through both the wires will be same.

Explanation:

By the Fourier's law of conduction we have:

\dot{Q}=k.A.\frac{dT}{dx}

where:

\dot{Q}= rate of heat transfer

k = thermal conductivity of the material

A = area of the material

dT = temperature difference across the length dx

According to the question, the system to be analysed is isolated from the surrounding.

Until the thermal equilibrium is established between aluminium and copper wires the amount of heat that gets through both the wires will be same.

<em>But the rate of heat transfer through the aluminium will be greater as it has double the thermal conductivity of copper.</em>
