Suppose a radar gun sends out radio waves with a frequency of 2,000,000.0 Hz. The waves bounce off a moving car and return with

a frequency of 2,000,000.2 Hz. If the speed of light is 300,000,000 m/s, what is the velocity of the car

Answer:

300,000,030m/s

Explanation:

Using the relationship between frequency and speed of a wave;

F ∝ V

F = kV

k = F/V

F1/V1 = F2/V2 = k

Let F1 be the frequency of the radio wave = 2,000,000.0Hz

V1 be the speed of light = 300,000,000m/s

F2 = frequency produced by the car = 2,000,000.2Hz

V2 be the velocity of the moving car

Substituting this values in the equation above;

2,000,000/300,000,000 = 2,000,000.2/V2

Cross multiplying

2,000,000V2 = 300,000,000×2,000,000.2

2V2 = 300×2,000,000.2

V2 = 150×2,000,000.2

V2 = 300,000,030m/s

The velocity of the car is 300,000,030m/s

If a current of 1 ampere enters a parallel circuit at Point A. This 1 ampere of current will divide between Resistors R1 and R2 and then recombine at Point B

<h3>Parallel circuit</h3>

A  parallel circuit is a circuit with separate branches with a common endpoint. In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each branch is the same but the currents vary. The total current is the sum of the currents flowing through each component.

If a current of 1 ampere enters a parallel circuit at Point A. This 1 ampere of current will divide between Resistors R1 and R2 and then recombine at Point B.

A. If a T-Rex runs 20 meters in 4 seconds, what is it’s average speed?
mariarad [96]

5m/s

100m

Explanation:

Average speed is sum of distance distance traveled in a given time by a body.

 Average speed= \frac{total distance covered}{time taken}

Distance = 20m

time = 4s

  Average speed = \frac{20}{4} = 5m/s

For the spaceship;

   Distance covered = speed x time

Speed = 50m/s

time = 2s

 Distance covered = 50 x 2 = 100m

What displacement in cm would occur with a 75 N/m spring if you placed a 300 N weight on the spring?
ollegr [7]

Surface tension=75N/m

Weight=300N

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Surface\:Tension=\dfrac{Weight}{Displacement}

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Displacement=\dfrac{Weight}{Surface\:Tension}

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Displacement=\dfrac{300}{75}

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Displacement=4m

\\ \bull\tt\longmapsto Displacement=400cm
