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

Galina-37 [17]2 years ago
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

Which of the following has the greatest kinetic energy? A. a mass of 4m at velocity v. B. a mass of 3m at velocity 2v. C. a mass
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy that the body possesses by virtue of its motion.

The formula for Kinetic energy is given by \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Using this formula let us find kinetic energy for the bodies given and find out which is the greatest

A) KE = \frac{1}{2} (4m)(v^2) = 2mv^2

B) KE =\frac{1}{2} (3m)(2v)^2 = 6mv^2

C) KE = \frac{1}{2} (2m)(3v)^2 = 9mv^2

D) KE = \frac{1}{2} (3)(4v)^2 = 8mv^2

Comparing these we find that 9mv^2 is the highest.

Hence option C is the answer.

A current of 5 A is flowing in a 20 mH inductor. The energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is:_______
Kipish [7]

Answer:

C. 0.25J

Explanation:

Energy stored in the magnetic field of the inductor is expressed as E = 1/2LI² where;

L is the inductance

I is the current flowing in the inductor

Given parameters

L = 20mH = 20×10^-3H

I = 5A

Required

Energy stored in the magnetic field.

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 5²

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 25

E = 10×10^-3 × 25

E = 0.01 × 25

E = 0.25Joules.

Hence the energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is 0.25Joules

What is the main difference between velocity and speed?
Marina86 [1]
Speed is scalar, meaning it's only going to be like 74 mph, doesn't matter which direction. Velocity is a vector, meaning it has direction. You can go -74mph when talking about velocity, not speed.
