Answer: The Doppler effect occurs when a source of a wave is moving relative to an observer (or the observer is moving relative to the source). In this case, the apparent frequency of the sound, as heard/seen by the observer, is shifted with respect to the original frequency of the wave.

More specifically, the relationship between the apparent frequency, f', and the original frequency, f, is given by:

where:

is the velocity of the wave

is the velocity of the observer relative to the source, and it is positive if the observer is moving towards the source, and negative if the observer is moving away from the source

is the velocity of the source relative to the observer, and it is positive if the source is moving away from the observer, and negative if the source is moving towards the observer

The doppler effect occurs in many daily-life situations: for instance, when an ambulance approaches you, you hear an increase in the apparent frequency of the siren due to the Doppler effect. Another example is the movements of distant galaxies from us: when they move away from us, the apparent frequency of the light they emit decreases, so their wavelengths appear to increase towards the red color (red-shift); on the contrary, when they are moving towards us, the apparent frequency seems to increase, so the wavelength seems to decrease towards the blue color (blue-shift).

A typical nuclear fission power plant produces about 1.00 GW of electrical power. Assume the plant has an overall efficiency of
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

mass consumed by 235U each day = 2 kg

Explanation:

electrical power produced = 1 GW = 1 × 10⁹ × (6.24151 × 10¹⁸ ) eV

                                            = 6.24151× 10²¹ MeV/s

thermal energy =  0.420 * 250 = 105 MeV

\dfrac{1 GW}{150 MeV}= \dfrac{6.24151\times 10^{21}}{105}

                                      = 5.94 × 10¹⁹ fission/second

                                       =5.94 × 10¹⁹× 24 × 60 ×60)

                                      =  5.13 × 10²⁴ fission/day

mu = 235.04393 ×  1.660× 10 ⁻²⁷ = 390.1729× 10⁻²⁷ Kg

M = mu ×5.13 × 10²⁴

   = 390.1729× 10⁻²⁷ ×5.13 × 10²⁴

M   =  2 kg(approx.)

mass consumed by 235U each day = 2 kg

Show all your work clearly on the scratch paper) Two in-phase loudspeakers that emit sound with the same frequency are placed al
Darya [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

The speed of sound in air to be 343 m/s.

Given:

distance 'd' = 5 m

L = 12 m

It can be concluded that path difference must be equal to half of the wavelength when person is observing destructive interference'y' at 1 m distance from the equidistant position

Since

λ/2 = yd/L

λ/2 = (1 x 5)/12

λ = 0.833m

Frequency of the sound is given by,

f = v / λ => 343 / 0.833

f=411.6 Hz
