The frequency shift your FuzzFoiler 2000 radar detector will see is 10.6 GHz.

<h3>Doppler effect</h3>

The doppler effect show the frequency shift of a source of sound relative to an observer depending on their relative motion.

The frequency shift f' = f(v ± v')/(v ± v") where

  • f = frequency of source = 9.50 GHz,
  • v = speed of sound = 330 m/s,
  • v' = speed of detector = speed of car = 37.9 m/s and
  • v" = speed of source = 0 m/s (since the highway patrol car is stationary)

Since the detector (our car) approaches the source (the radar gun), we use the positive sign in the numerator and a negative in the denominator

So, f' = f(v + v')/(v - v")

Since v" = 0, we have

f' = f(v + v')/(v - 0)

<h3>The frequency shift</h3>

f' = f(v + v')/v

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

f' = 9.50 GHz(330 m/s + 37.9 m/s)/330 m/s

f' = 9.50 GHz(367.9 m/s)/330 m/s

f' = 9.50 Ghz × 1.115

f' = 10.6 GHz

So, the frequency shift your FuzzFoiler 2000 radar detector will see is 10.6 GHz.

A bucket of mass m is hanging from the free end of a rope whose other end is wrapped around a drum (radius R, mass M) that can r
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let T be the tension .

Applying newton's second law on the downward movement of the bucket

mg - T = ma

On the drum , a torque of TR will be acting which will create an angular acceleration of α in it . If I be the moment of inertia of the drum

TR = Iα

TR = Ia/ R

T =  Ia/ R²

Replacing this value of T in the other equation

mg - T = ma

mg - Ia/ R²  = ma

mg =  Ia/ R² +ma

a ( I/ R² +m)= mg

a = mg / ( I/ R² +m)

mg - T = ma

mg - ma  = T

mg - m x mg / ( I/ R² +m) = T

mg - m²g / ( I/ R² +m ) = T

mg - mg / ( 1 + I / m R² ) = T

b ) T =  Ia/ R²

I = TR² / a

c ) Moment of inertia of hollow cylinder

I = 1/2  M ( R² - R² / 4 )

= 3/4 x 1/2 MR²

= 3/8 MR²

I / R² = 3/8 M

a = mg / ( I/ R² +m)

a = mg / ( 3/8 M + m )

T =  Ia/ R²

= 3/8 MR² x mg / ( 3/8 M + m ) x 1 /R²

= \frac{3mMg}{(3M +8m)}
