We want to explain why two different observes may measure different frequencies for the same vibrating object.

We will see that the two correct options are:

  • <em>Observer A is stationary and Observer B is moving.</em>
  • <em>Observer A and Observer B are moving at different speeds relative to each other.</em>

<em />

Let's assume that the vibrating object is a guitar string. Thus, the string makes a noise, and from that noise, we can estimate the frequency at which the string vibrates.

Now there appears a really cool effect, called the Doppler Effect. It says that the apparent change of frequency is <u>due to the motion of the observer or the source of the frequency (or both).</u>

For example, if you move towards the vibrating string, the perceived frequency will be larger, and you will hear a "higher" sound.

While if you move away from the string, the opposite happens, and you will hear a "lower" sound.

Then the only thing that impacts in how we perceive the frequency is our velocity relative to the source.

So, why do observers A and B measure different frequencies?

The two correct answers are:

  • <em>Observer A is stationary and Observer B is moving.</em>
  • <em>Observer A and Observer B are moving at different speeds relative to each other.</em>

Arocket with an initial velocity of 20 m/s another engine that gives it an acceleration of 4 m/s ^ 2 over 10 secondsHow far did
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

50m

   

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 20m/s

Acceleration  = 4m/s²

Time  = 10s

Unknown:

Distance traveled by the rocket  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem use the expression below;

   

     v² = u² + 2as

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance

  final velocity = 0

 Insert the parameters and solve;

  0²  = 20² + 2 x 4 x s

   -400  = 8s

         s  = 50m

   Disregard the negative sign because distance cannot be negative.

What are the similarities &amp; differences between a thermistor and a light dependent resistor in physics?
viva [34]

An LDR's resistance changes with light intensity, while a thermistor's resistancce changes with temperature.

In dark, LDR's resistance is large and in the day/light LDR's resistance is small.

At low temperature, thermistor's resistance is large, while at large temperature it resistance is small.

In an LDR Resistance increases as light intensity falls, while in a thermistor resistance falls as temperature falls.
