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
5 0

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

The earth has a vertical electric field at the surface, pointing down, that averages 100 N/C. This field is maintained by variou
zlopas [31]

Answer:

q = 3.6 10⁵  C

Explanation:

To solve this exercise, let's use one of the consequences of Gauss's law, that all the charge on a body can be considered at its center, therefore we calculate the electric field on the surface of a sphere with the radius of the Earth

          r = 6 , 37 106 m

          E = k q / r²

          q = E r² / k

          q = \frac{100 \ (6.37 \ 10^6)^2}{9 \ 10^9}

          q = 4.5 10⁵ C

Now let's calculate the charge on the planet with E = 222 N / c and radius

           r = 0.6 r_ Earth

           r = 0.6 6.37 10⁶ = 3.822 10⁶ m

           E = k q / r²

            q = E r² / k

            q = \frac{222 (3.822 \ 10^6)^2}{ 9 \ 10^9}

            q = 3.6 10⁵  C

Which of the following is fact-based science rather than part of a personal belief system?
marusya05 [52]
Since there are no choices, then this question calls for open-ended answers. Facts-based science must have proven underlying laws that support inferences such as Coulomb's Law, Kinetic Theory of Matter and many more. On the other hand, examples of science that focus on personal belief is philosophy. This depends on the perspective of known philosophers. An example would be Sigmund Freud who proposed the theory of 3 personalities. Although it is more on personal beliefs, this is used as a foundation in the study of psychology.

Determine the acceleration due to gravity for low Earth orbit (LEO) given: MEarth = 6.00 x 1024 kg, rEarth = 6.40 x 106 m, G = 6
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

The answer to the question is as follows

The  acceleration due to gravity for low for orbit is  9.231 m/s²

Explanation:

The gravitational force is given as

F_{G}= \frac{Gm_{1} m_{2}}{r^{2} }

Where F_{G} = Gravitational force

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67×10⁻¹¹\frac{Nm^{2} }{kg^{2} }

m₁ = mEarth = mass of Earth = 6×10²⁴ kg

m₂ = The other mass which is acted upon by  F_{G} and = 1 kg

rEarth = The distance between the two masses = 6.40 x 10⁶ m

therefore at a height of 400 km above the erth we have

r = 400 + rEarth = 400 + 6.40 x 10⁶ m = 6.80 x 10⁶ m

and  F_{G} = \frac{6.67*10^{-11} *6.40*10^{24} *1}{(6.8*10^{6})^{2} } = 9.231 N

Therefore the acceleration due to gravity =  F_{G} /mass  

9.231/1 or 9.231 m/s²

Therefore the acceleration due to gravity at 400 kn above the Earth's surface is  9.231 m/s²

What wave on the electromagnetic spectrum has the highest frequency?
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer: Gamma rays

Gamma rays have the highest frequency.

What is an electromagnetic wave?

An electromagnetic wave requires no medium for its propagation.

It consists of a spectrum of different wavelengths.

Different wavelengths of rays have different energies and different frequencies.

Higher frequency rays have the highest energies.

What is gamma-ray?

These are ionized radiations.

Gamma radiations are obtained from the decay of the atomic nucleus.

It has the highest frequency which is why it can penetrate through matter.

It has the smallest wavelength and highest energy.

The frequency of gamma rays is more than 10^19 cycles per second and wavelength less than 100 picometers.
