Answer:
The frequency of the sound note as heard = 429 Hz
Explanation:
The frequency of sound waves as heard from a distance for a sound wave coming towards one at v₀ m/s and whose real frequency is f₀ is given by
+f = f₀/[1 - (v₀/v)]
+f = frequency of sound as heard from the distance away = ?
f₀ = real frequency of sound = 401 Hz
v₀ = velocity at which the sound source is moving towards the reference point = 23.0 m/s
v = velocity of sound waves = 343 m/s
+f = 401/[1 - (23/343)]
+f = 429 Hz
Answer:
7 m/s^2
Explanation:
Given that the jet is traveling 37.6 m/s when the pilot receives the message.
And it takes the pilot 5.37 s to bring the plane to a halt.
Acceleration of the plane can be calculated by using first equation of motion
V = U - at
Since the plane is going to stop, the final velocity V = zero.
And the acceleration will be negative
Substitute all the parameters into the formula
0 = 37.6 - 5.37a
5.37a = 37.6
Make a the subject of formula
a = 37.6 / 5.37
a = 7.0 m/s^2
Therefore, the acceleration of the plane to bring the plane to a halt is 7 m/s^2

Answer: Diffraction</h2><h2 />
Diffraction is a characteristic phenomenon that occurs in all types of waves
.
In this sense, <u>diffraction</u> happens when a wave (the light in this case) meets an obstacle or a slit .When this occurs, the light bends around the corners of the obstacle or passes through the opening of the slit that acts as an obstacle, forming <u><em>multiple patterns</em></u> with the shape of the aperture of the slit.
Note that the principal condition for the occurrence of this phenomena is that <u>the obstacle must be comparable in size (similar size) to the size of the wavelength.

We could use the change of pressure to calculate for the height climbed by the mountain hiker. The change of pressure is given by
p = rho * g * h, where p is the change of pressure, rho is the air density, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height.
Using the conversion 1 mbar = 100 Pa,
(930 - 780)(100) = (1.20)(9.80)h
15000 = 1.20*9.80*h
h = 1.28 km
