Answer:

To first order  f' = f (1 - u/c) where observer and source are separating

f' = (1 + .4) = 70 MHz   so (d) would be correct

The next term would be 1/2 (u/c)^2 = 1/2 * ,4^2 = .08 and the correction would be .08 * 50 = 4 Mhz

Most approximations would use (d).

Answer:

7.46×10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

Applying,

F = kqq'/r²............ Equation 1

make r the subject of the equation

r = √(F/kqq').......... Equation 2

From the question,

Given: F = 8 N, q' = q= 4 C

Constant: k = 8.98×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute these values into equation 2

r = √[8/(4×4×8.98×10⁹)]

r = √(55.7×10⁻¹²)

r = 7.46×10⁻⁶ m

Elis [28]

Answer: a)

Explanation:

The buoyant force, as stated by Archimedes’ principle, is equal to the weight of the liquid that occupies the same volumen as the submerged object, as follows:

Fb = δ.V.g

If this force is larger than the weight of the object (that means that the fluid is denser than the solid), the object floats, which is the case for silver and mercury.

Instead, silver density is larger than water density, which explains why the pure silver ingot sinks.

Finally, as mercury is denser than water, we conclude that for a same object, the buoyant force in mercury is larger than in water (exactly 13.6 times greater).
