Answer:

7.85m/sec

Explanation:

definition of terms

<em>speed of sound is 340m/s</em>

<em>sound is an example of wave source</em>

<em>speed is change in distance per time</em>

Perceived frequency of friend's horn = 266Hz.

beat=f1-f2

6=f1-260 Hz

f1=266Hz.

we make an assumption that the velocity of sound will be used, I will adopt 340m/sec.

V_{0}=340m/sec.

(V_{0} *f_{1}/f_{2})-V_{0}

(340 x 266/260)- 340 = 7.85m/sec

my friend will be approaching me at that speed

1. A diffraction grating with 5.000 x 103 lines/cm is used to examine the sodium
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

0.0002°, 0.1691°, 0.338°

Explanation:

Difference between the two line = 5.97 * 10-⁸m

d = 1 / N

N = 5.0 * 10³

d = 2.0 * 10⁴m

nL = Nsin¤

For first order

588.995 * 10-⁹ = 2.0 * 10-⁴ sin ¤

Sin¤ = 2.944*10-³

¤ = sin-¹ 0.002944

¤ = 0.1687°

First order ¤ =

Sin-¹(589.592*-⁹ / 2.0 * 10-⁴)

Sin-¹ (0.002947) = 0.1689°

Angular separation = 0.1689 - 0.1687 = 0.0002°

Second order ¤ = sin-¹ [2 (589.59*10-⁹ / 2.0*10-⁴)] = sin-¹ (0.005895)

Second order ¤ = 0.3378°

Angular difference = 0.3378° - 0.1687° = 0.1691°

Third order ¤ = sin-¹ [3(589.59*10-⁹ /2.0*10-⁴] = 0.5067°

Angular difference = 0.5067° - 0.1687° = 0.338°

inn [45]

Answer:

45 meters

Explanation:

20 min = 15 meters

So if 20 x 3 = 60

you have to do 3 x 15 !

- which equals to 45 <3

Small frogs that are good jumpers are capable of remarkable accelerations. One species reaches a takeoff speed of3.7 m/s in60 ms
MAVERICK [17]

We know that acceleration is change in velocity by time taken for that change.

In this case velocity change is 3.7 m/s

Time taken for this change = 60 ms = 6 *10^{-3} seconds

So acceleration of frog  = \frac{3.7}{60*10^{-3}}

                                       = 61.66 m/s^2

So acceleration of frog is 61.66 m/s^2

o it is evident that frog is capable of remarkable accelerations.

2.27 A gas is compressed from V1= 0.3 m3, p1=1 bar to V2= 0.1 m3, p2 =3 bar. The pressure and
Georgia [21]

Answer:

-40 kJ

80 kJ

Explanation:

Work is equal to the area under the pressure vs volume graph.

W = ∫ᵥ₁ᵛ² P dV

2.27) Pressure and volume are linearly related.  When we graph P vs V, the area under the line is a trapezoid.  So the work is:

W = ½ (P₁ + P₂) (V₂ − V₁)

W = ½ (100 kPa + 300 kPa) (0.1 m³ − 0.3 m³)

W = -40 kJ

2.29) Pressure and volume are inversely proportional:

pV = k

The initial pressure and volume are 500 kPa and 0.1 m³.  So the constant is:

(500) (0.1) = k

k = 50

The final pressure is 100 kPa.  So the final volume is:

(100) V = 50

V = 0.5

The work is therefore:

W = ∫ᵥ₁ᵛ² P dV

W = ∫₀₁⁰⁵ (50/V) dV

W = 50 ln(V) |₀₁⁰⁵

W = 50 (ln 0.5 − ln 0.1)

W ≈ 80 kJ
