Given:
speed of passing pony 5 m/s
frequency of the sound produced: 221 Hz
speed of sound 342 m/s

Let us use the Doppler Shift Formula:
Where the <span>source is moving away from the observer at rest
</span>
f' = (v / v+vs) f
Where, vs<span> = Velocity of the Source,</span>
           v = Velocity of sound or light in medium,
           f = Real frequency,
           f' = Apparent frequency.

f'= [342 m/s / (342 m/s+5m/s)] * 221 Hz
f' = 0.9856 * 221Hz
f' = 217.8176 Hz or 218 Hz

The observed frequency <span>of the hooves after the pony has passed your position is 218 Hz.</span>

At time t=0 , a cart is at x=10 m and has a velocity of 3 m/s in the −x -direction. The cart has a constant acceleration in the
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Explanation:

The minimum magnitude of acceleration = 3 m /s²

displacement at t = 1

s = ut + 1 /2 at²

= -3 x 1 + .5 x 3 x 1²

= - 3 + 1.5

= - 1.5 m

position at t = 1 s

= 10 - 1.5

= 8.5 m

The maximum  magnitude of acceleration = 6 m /s²

displacement at t = 1

s = ut + 1 /2 at²

= -3 x 1 + .5 x 6 x 1²

= - 3 + 3

=  0

position at t = 1 s

= 10 +0

= 10  m

So range of position is 8.5 m to 10 m .

A uniform meterstick of mass 0.20 kg is pivoted at the 40 cm mark. where should one hang a mass of 0.50 kg to balance the stick?
Tcecarenko [31]
The weight of the meterstick is:
W=mg=0.20 kg \cdot 9.81 m/s^2 = 1.97 N
and this weight is applied at the center of mass of the meterstick, so at x=0.50 m, therefore at a distance 
d_1 = 0.50 m - 0.40 m=0.10 m
from the pivot.
The torque generated by the weight of the meterstick around the pivot is:
M_w = W d_1 = (1.97 N)(0.10 m)=0.20 Nm

To keep the system in equilibrium, the mass of 0.50 kg must generate an equal torque with opposite direction of rotation, so it must be located at a distance d2 somewhere between x=0 and x=0.40 m. The magnitude of the torque should be the same, 0.20 Nm, and so we have:
(mg) d_2 = 0.20 Nm
from which we find the value of d2:
d_2 =  \frac{0.20 Nm}{mg}= \frac{0.20 Nm}{(0.5 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)}=0.04 m

So, the mass should be put at x=-0.04 m from the pivot, therefore at the x=36 cm mark.

What is the rate of heat transfer by radiation, with an unclothed person standing in a dark room whose ambient temperature is 22
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

5.45\times 10^{-4} W

Explanation:

T_{r} = Temperature of the room = 22.0 °C = 22 + 273 = 295 K

T_{s} = Temperature of the skin = 33.0 °C = 33 + 273 = 306 K

A = Surface area = 1.50 m²

\epsilon = emissivity = 0.97

\sigma = Stefan's constant = 5.67 x 10⁻⁸ Wm⁻² K⁻⁴

Rate of heat transfer is given as

R = \epsilon \sigma A (T_{s}^{2} - T_{r}^{2})

R = (0.97)(5.67\times 10^{-8}) (1.50) ((306)^{2} - (295)^{2})

R = 5.45\times 10^{-4} W

Planetary orbits... are spaced more closely together as they get further from the Sun. are evenly spaced throughout the solar sy
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

E) are almost circular, with low eccentricities.

Explanation:

Kepler's laws establish that:

All the planets revolve around the Sun in an elliptic orbit, with the Sun in one of the focus (Kepler's first law).

A planet describes equal areas in equal times (Kepler's second law).

The square of the period of a planet will be proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit (Kepler's third law).

T^{2} = a^{3}

Where T is the period of revolution and a is the semi-major axis.

Planets orbit around the Sun in an ellipse with the Sun in one of the focus. Because of that, it is not possible to the Sun to be at the center of the orbit, as the statement on option "C" says.

However, those orbits have low eccentricities (remember that an eccentricity = 0 corresponds to a circle)

In some moments of their orbit, planets will be closer to the Sun (known as perihelion). According with Kepler's second law to complete the same area in the same time, they have to speed up at their perihelion and slow down at their aphelion (point farther from the Sun in their orbit).

Therefore, option A and B can not be true.

In the celestial sphere, the path that the Sun moves in a period of a year is called ecliptic, and planets pass very closely to that path.

Points A, B, and C form the vertices of a triangle in a nonuniform electrostatic field. The electrostatic work done on a particl
Trava [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let electric potential at A ,B and C be Va , Vb and Vc respectively.

Work done = charge x potential difference

Wab = q ( Va - Vb )

Wac =  q (  Va -  Vc )

Given

Wac = - Wab / 3

3Wac = - Wab

Now

Wbc = q ( Vb - Vc )

= q [ ( Va-Vc ) - ( Va - Vb )]  

= Wac - Wab

= Wac + 3Wac

= 4Wac
