a ultrasonic wave at 8x10^4 Hz is emitted into a vien where the speed of sound in blood is 1570 m/s. the wave reflects off the r

Aneli [31]

Answer: 0.392 m/s

Explanation:

The Doppler shift equation is:

$f'=\frac{V+V_{o}}{V-V_{s}} f$

Where:

$f=8(10)^{4} Hz$ is the actual frequency of the sound wave

$f'=8.002(10)^{4} Hz$ is the "observed" frequency

$V=1570 m/s$ is the speed of sound

$V_{o}=0 m/s$ is the velocity of the observer, which is stationary

$V_{s}$ is the velocity of the source, which are the red blood cells

Isolating $V_{s}$ :

$V_{s}=\frac{V(f'-f)}{f'}$

$V_{s}=\frac{1570 m/s(8.002(10)^{4} Hz-8(10)^{4} Hz)}{8.002(10)^{4} Hz}$

Finally:

$V_{s}=0.392 m/s$

A bus with a vertical wind shield moves horizontally

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

(3) 53°

Explanation:

We want to measure the angle that the rains form with the vertical wind shield, so we have to measure the angle relative to the vertical. This means that we can write the following equation

$tan \theta = \frac{v_x}{v_y}$

where

$v_y = 30 km/h$ is the speed of the rain, which travels vertically

$v_x = 40 km/h$ is the speed of the bus, which travels horizontally

Substituting, we find

$\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{40}{30})=53^{\circ}$

The block in the drawing has dimensions L0×2L0×3L0,where L0 =0.5 m. The block has a thermal conductivity of 200 J/(s·m·C˚). In d

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

$Q_p=18000\ J$

$Q_o=8000\ J$

$Q_g=72000\ J$

Explanation:

Given:

Length of block, $l=3L_o=3\times 0.5=1.5\ m$

Breadth of block, $b=L_o=0.5\ m$

height of block, $h=2L_o=2\times 0.5=1\ m$

Thermal conductivity of the block, $k=200\ W.m.^{\circ}C$

Temperature on the hotter side, $T_H=37^{\circ}C$

temperature on the cooler side, $T_L=7^{\circ}C$

time for which the heat flows, $t=4\ s$

REFER THE ATTACHED IMAGE FOR THE REFERENCE

The rate of heat flow using Fourier's law of conduction is given as:

$\frac{Q}{t}=k.A.\frac{dT}{dx}$

Now the amount heat flow perpendicular to the pink surface:

$\frac{Q_p}{4}=200\times (0.5\times 1.5).\frac{30}{1}$

$Q_p=18000\ J$

Now the amount heat flow perpendicular to the orange surface:

$\frac{Q_o}{4}=200\times (0.5\times 1).\frac{30}{1.5}$

$Q_o=8000\ J$

Now the amount heat flow perpendicular to the green surface:

$\frac{Q_g}{4}=200\times (1.5\times 1).\frac{30}{0.5}$

$Q_g=72000\ J$
