Two motorcycles are traveling in opposite directions at the same speed when one of the cyclists blasts her horn, which has frequ

ency of 544 Hz. The other cyclist hears the frequency as 563 Hz. If the speed of sound in air is 344 m/s, what is the speed of the motorcycles

5 0

Answer:

6ms^-1

Explanation:

Given that the frequency difference is

( 563- 544) = 19

So alsoThe wavelength of each wave is = v/f = 344 /544

and there are 19 of this waves

So it is assumed that each motorcycle has moved 0.5 of this distance

in one second thus the speed of the motorcycles will be

=> 19/2 x 344/544 = 6.0 m/s

how do you Compute the approximate acceleration of gravity for an object above the earth's surface, assigning accel gravity with
solong [7]

The approximate acceleration of gravity for an object above the earth's surface is 9.8 m/s².

<h3>Acceleration due to gravity </h3>

The acceleration due to gravity of an object above the Earth's surface is calculated from Newton's second law of motion and Newton's law of universal gravitation.

<h3>Force between the object and Earth</h3>

F_g = \frac{GmM}{R^2}

<h3>Weight of the object</h3>

F_g = mg\\

Solve (1) and (2)

mg = GmM/R²

g = GM/R²

where;

  • M is mass of Earth
  • G is gravitational constant
  • R is radius of the Earth = 6,371 km

g = (6.673 x 10⁻¹¹ x 5.98 x 10²⁴)/(6,371 x 10³)²

g = 9.8 m/s²

An object is released from rest at time t = 0 and falls through the air, which exerts a resistive force such that the accelerati
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

The correct option is

a. v = g (1-e^{-bt})/b

Explanation:

Time at which the object start fall t = 0

The acceleration a is given by a = g - bV

Where V = Speed of the object

Speed V² = u² + 2·a·h

However with the drag force the object will approach terminal velocity as t becomes progressively larger whereby v will stop increasing

Option a. is the only option that has  limiting value of v which is in the range of g as t increases ∴ option a. is the correct option.

v = g (1-e^{-bt})/b  as t increases (1-e^{-bt}) → 1 s and v→ g/b m/s

Consider the following statements. A. Heat flows from an object at higher temperature to an object at lower temperature; B. Heat
Monica [59]

Answer:

A. Heat flows from an object at higher temperature to an object at lower temperature

Explanation:

The option A obeys the 2nd law of thermodynamics. The heat will flow from the object at higher temperature to the object at Lower temperature till they reach an equilibrial state.

Heat doesn’t necessarily flow from an object with higher thermal energy to an object with lower thermal energy because an object has a higher thermal energy when it’s mass is more than the other. This makes B wrong.

C is wrong because heat moves from an object with higher temperature to objects with Lower temperature regardless of the state of matter.
