An automobile is traveling away from Jill and towards Jack. The horn is honking, producing a sound wave.

Physics
1 answer:
wlad13 [49]3 years ago

Answer:

a. The sound will travel at the speed to both Jill and Jack

b. Jack

Explanation:

a. Doppler effect describes how the frequency of a sound wave changes with regards to an observer that has relative motion to the sound source;

The Doppler effect is given by the following formula;

For a sound that is moving away, as observed by Jill, we have;

f' = \dfrac{(v - v_0)}{(v + v_s)} \cdot f =  \dfrac{v }{(v + v_s)} \cdot f

For approaching sound, as observed by Jack, we have;

f' = \dfrac{(v + v_0)}{(v - v_s)} \cdot f =  \dfrac{v }{(v - v_s)} \cdot f

Where;

f = The sound wave's actual frequency

f' = The frequency of the moving sound to the observer

v = The speed of the sound wave

v₀ = The observer's velocity = 0

v_s = The velocity of the source (the automobile honking) of the sound wave

From the above equation, we have that the speed of sound, 'v', is the same to both the source, and the observer although the frequency, and therefore, the wavelength of the sound alternatively increases or decreases

b. From the Doppler effect equation, the person who will hear the highest frequency is given by the formula for the frequency when the sound is approaching the observer, which has the lower denominator

Therefore, given that the automobile is travelling towards Jack, jack will hear the higher frequency

What happens to a sample of matter when it’s particles lose kinetic energy?
Mrrafil [7]
What will happen if the sample is the
Featured snippet from the web
When a sample of solid, liquid, or gas matter heats up, it expands. When matter gets hot, its particles gain kinetic energy. ... When matter cools down, its particles lose kinetic energy. The decreased kinetic energy lets the particles come closer together. The kinetic theory of matter can be used to explain how solids, liquids and gases are interchangeable as a result of increase or decrease in heat energy. ... If it is cooled the motion of the particles decreases as they lose energy.

Two cars, one of mass 1400 kg, and the
Vikki [24]

Suppose that, in the x-y plane, the first car is moving to the right so that its velocity is given by the vector

v₁ = (14 m/s) i

and the second car is moving upward so that its velocity vector is

v₂ = (20 m/s) j

Then the total momentum of two cars before their collision is

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (1400 kg) (14 m/s) i + (2300 kg) (20 m/s) j

= (19,600 i + 46,000 j) kg•m/s

Their momentum after the collision is

(1400 kg + 2300 kg) v = (3700 kg) v

where v is the velocity vector of the wreckage.

By conservation of momentum,

(19,600 i + 46,000 j) kg•m/s = (3700 kg) v

Let a and b be the horizontal and vertical components of v, respectively. Then

19,600 kg•m/s = (3700 kg) a   ⇒   a ≈ 5.2973 m/s ≈ 5.3 m/s

46,000 kg•m/s = (3700 kg) b   ⇒   b ≈ 12.4324 m/s ≈ 12 m/s

so that the final speed of the wreckage is

||v|| = √(a² + b²) ≈ 13.5139 m/s ≈ 14 m/s
