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

Throughout the problem, take the speed of sound in air to be 343 m/s . Part A Consider a pipe of length 80.0 cm open at both end
White raven [17]

Answer:

the lowest frequency f of the sound wave is 214.375 Hz

Explanation:

The computation of the lowest frequency f of the sound wave is shown below;

Length = L= 80 cm

= 0.8 m

V = 343 m/s (sound speed in air )

Now

V1 = n V ÷ 2 L

= 1 × 343 ÷ 2 × 0.8

V1 = 214.375 Hz

Hence, the lowest frequency f of the sound wave is 214.375 Hz

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

The diagram shows a ball resting at the top of a hill.
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

a) The potential energy in the system is greatest at X.

Explanation:

Let be X the point where a ball rests at the top of a hill. By applying the Principle of Energy Conservation, the total energy in the physical system remains constant and gravitational potential energy at the top of the hill is equal to the sum of kinetic energy, a lower gravitational energy and dissipated work due to nonconservative forces (friction, dragging).

U_{grav, X} = U_{grav, Y} + K_{Y} + \Delta W_{X \rightarrow Y} = U_{grav,Z}+\Delta W_{X \rightarrow Z}

Conclusions are showed as follows:

a) The potential energy in the system is greatest at X.

b) The kinetic energy is the lowest at X and Z.

c) Total energy remains constant as the ball moves from X to Y.

Hence, the correct answer is A.

A circular hole in an aluminum plate is 2.739 cm in diameter at 0.000°C. What is the change in its diameter when the temperature
prisoha [69]

Answer:

L = 2.746 cm

Explanation:

As we know that thermal expansion coefficient of aluminium is given as

\alpha = 24 \times 10^{-6} per ^oC

now we also know that after thermal expansion the final length is given as

L = L_o(1 + \alpha \Delta T)

here we know that

L_o = 2.739 cm

\alpha = 24 \times 10^{-6}

\Delta T = 108 - 0= 108^oC

now we will have

L = 2.739(1 + 24 \times 10^{-6} (108))

L = 2.746 cm

When the termination is a terminal block, care must be taken to ensure a good electrical connection without damaging the conduct
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

When the termination is a terminal block, care must be taken to ensure a good electrical connection without damaging the conductor. Terminals should not be used for more than one

Explanation:

The Terminal block being a modular block, having insulated frame, which can secure more than two wires in it. It has a conducting strip in it. These terminal clocks helps in making the connection safer as well as organised. These terminal blocks are used for power distribution in safer way. Its potential is it can distribute power from single to multiple output. The conductor is used for making it proper contact.
