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]3 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

The decimal equivalent for meter is
USPshnik [31]

m =dm ______ 10.000

Meters

The metre is a unit of length in the metric system, and is the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI).

As the base unit of length in the SI and other m.k.s. systems (based around metres, kilograms and seconds) the metres is used to help derive other units of measurement such as the newton, for force.

A car of mass 1470 kg is on an icy driveway
Schach [20]

Answer:

  a = 7.5 m / s²

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law, let's create a coordinate system with the x axis parallel to the plane and the y axis perpendicular to the plane

Y axis

       N - W cos θ = 0

       N = mg cos θ

X axis

       W sin θ = m a

 

       mg sin θ = m a

        a = g sin θ

let's calculate

        a = 9.8 cos 40

        a = 7.5 m / s²

Karolina [17]

Answer:

low

Explanation:

the higher the kinetic energy, the More the vibration of molecules, thus heat is more on the side with highly vibrating molecules
