Answer:

D) 19.8 lbs

Explanation:

1kg in household measurement is equal to 35.274 ounces. 35.274*9=317.466 ounces.

1kg is also equal to 2.205 lbs. 9*2.205=19.8416

9 kg is also equal to 9000 grams, but grams are not a part of the household measurement system

a) 9000 grams. b) 9000 ounces. c) 19.8 ounces. d) 19.8 pounds.

This leaves us with 19.8 lbs

A train whistle is heard at 300 Hz as the train approaches town. The train cuts its speed in half as it nears the station, and t

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The speed of the train before and after slowing down is 22.12 m/s and 11.06 m/s, respectively.

Explanation:

We can calculate the speed of the train using the Doppler equation:

$f = f_{0}\frac{v + v_{o}}{v - v_{s}}$

Where:

f₀: is the emitted frequency

f: is the frequency heard by the observer

v: is the speed of the sound = 343 m/s

$v_{o}$ : is the speed of the observer = 0 (it is heard in the town)

$v_{s}$ : is the speed of the source =?

The frequency of the train before slowing down is given by:

$f_{b} = f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{b}}}$ (1)

Now, the frequency of the train after slowing down is:

$f_{a} = f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{a}}}$ (2)

Dividing equation (1) by (2) we have:

$\frac{f_{b}}{f_{a}} = \frac{f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{b}}}}{f_{0}\frac{v}{v - v_{s_{a}}}}$

$\frac{f_{b}}{f_{a}} = \frac{v - v_{s_{a}}}{v - v_{s_{b}}}$ (3)

Also, we know that the speed of the train when it is slowing down is half the initial speed so:

$v_{s_{b}} = 2v_{s_{a}}$ (4)

Now, by entering equation (4) into (3) we have:

$\frac{f_{b}}{f_{a}} = \frac{v - v_{s_{a}}}{v - 2v_{s_{a}}}$

$\frac{300 Hz}{290 Hz} = \frac{343 m/s - v_{s_{a}}}{343 m/s - 2v_{s_{a}}}$

By solving the above equation for $v_{s_{a}}$ we can find the speed of the train after slowing down:

$v_{s_{a}} = 11.06 m/s$

Finally, the speed of the train before slowing down is:

$v_{s_{b}} = 11.06 m/s*2 = 22.12 m/s$

Therefore, the speed of the train before and after slowing down is 22.12 m/s and 11.06 m/s, respectively.

I hope it helps you!

What is a charge-coupled device (CCD), and how is it used in astronomy?

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Charge-coupled device (CCD) is a device that receives and transfers an electrical charge to the next region

Explanation:

Charge-coupled device (CCD) is a device that receives and transfers an electrical charge to the next region where it can be modified like changing it to a electronic value.

In astronomy, high-powered telescopes can be used with CCD device image sensor cameras. The imaging system can concentrate for a number of hours on one place in space once the Earth's rotation synchronizes with the telescope.

Afina-wow [57]

Explanation:

Understanding that stars are naturally quite hot, imagine I pulled a piece of hot iron from a furnace. It would glow a bright red, and then slowly fade to black as the iron cools.

White dwarfs glow for the same reason - they are HOT!

A capacitor with a capacitance of 50µf when connected to a battery of 400 V. The charge and energy stored on it is? a. 0.05 C an

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

c. 0.02 C and 4 J

Explanation:

Applying,

Q = CV................ Equation 1

Where Q = Charge, C = Capacitance of the capacitor, V = Voltage.

From the question,

Given: C = 50 μF = 50×10⁻⁶ F, V = 400 V

Substitute these values into equation 1

Q = (50×10⁻⁶)(400)

Q = 0.02 C.

Also Applying

E = CV²/2............. Equation 2

Where E = Energy stored.

Therefore,

E = (50×10⁻⁶ )(400²)/2

E = 4 J

Hence the right option is c. 0.02 C and 4 J
