2. While standing near a bus stop, a student hears a distant horn beeping. The frequency emitted by the horn is 440 Hz. The bus

is traveling at 20.0 m/s, and the speed of sound is 330 m/s. What frequency will the student hear at each point in the bus's motion?

Given Information:

Frequency of horn = f₀ = 440 Hz

Speed of sound = v = 330 m/s

Speed of bus = v₀ = 20 m/s

Answer:

Case 1. When the bus is crossing the student = 440 Hz

Case 2. When the bus is approaching the student = 414.9 Hz

Case 3. When the bus is moving away from the student = 468.4 Hz

Explanation:

There are 3 cases in this scenario:

Case 1. When the bus is crossing the student

Case 2. When the bus is approaching the student

Case 3. When the bus is moving away from the student

Let us explore each case:

Case 1. When the bus is crossing the student:

Student will hear the same frequency emitted by the horn that is 440 Hz.

f = 440 Hz

Case 2. When the bus is approaching the student

f = f₀ ( v / v+v₀ )

f = 440 ( 330/ 330+20 )

f = 440 ( 330/ 350 )

f = 440 ( 0.943 )

f = 414.9 Hz

Case 3. When the bus is moving away from the student

f = f₀ ( v / v+v₀ )

f = 440 ( 330/ 330-20 )

f = 440 ( 330/ 310 )

f = 440 ( 1.0645 )

f = 468.4 Hz

Planet Nine is speculated to be on average 20 times farther away from the Sun than Neptune (on average distance from the Sun). H
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The distance is 55.636 billion miles, or 528.2 AU.

Explanation:

Since the distance from the Sun to Neptune is 2.7818 billion miles, the distance from the Sun to Planet Nine would be 20 times that, which is:

d=(20)(2781800000\ miles)=55636000000\ miles

or 55.636 billion miles.

Since 1 astronomical unit (AU) is 93 million miles, that distance is also:

d=(55636000000\ miles)(\frac{1AU}{93000000\ miles})=598.2\ AU
