The relationship between the frequency heard by the observer in motion and the original frequency of the sound is given by (Doppler effect)
f'= \frac{v}{v-v_s}f
where
f' is the frequency heard by the observer
v is the speed of the wave (the speed of sound)
v_s is the speed of the source relative to the observer (= the speed of the car), and it is negative when the source is approaching the observer
f is the original frequency of the sound

By re-arranging the formula, we get
v_s=v( 1- \frac{f'}{f})
and by plugging the data of the problem into the equation, we find
v_s = (343 m/s)( 1- \frac{470 Hz}{450 Hz})=-15.2 m/s
so, the car is approaching the observer at 15.2 m/s.

A solid cylinder of mass 12.0 kg and radius 0.250 m is free to rotate without friction around its central axis. If you do 75.0 J
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

20 rad/s

Explanation:

mass, m = 12 kg

radius, r = 0.250 m

Moment of inertia of cylinder, I = 1/2 mr²

I = 0.5 x 12 x 0.250 x 0.250 = 0.375 kgm^2

Work done = Change in kinetic energy

Initial K = 0

Final K = 1/2 Iω²

W = 1/2 Iω²

ω² = 2W/ I = 2 x 75 / (0.375)

ω = 20 rad/s

Thus, the final angular velocity is 20 rad/s .

A transition metal complex in solution has an absorption peak at 450 nm, in the blue region of the visible spectrum. What color
Ivan

Answer:

In the case of a solution transition metal complex that has an absorption peak at 450 nm in the blue region of the visible spectrum, the (complementary) color of this solution is orange (option B).

Explanation:

The portion of UV-visible radiation that is absorbed implies that a portion of electromagnetic radiation is not absorbed by the sample and is therefore transmitted through it and can be captured by the human eye. That is, in the visible region of a complex, the visible color of a solution can be seen and that  corresponds to the wavelengths of light it transmits, not absorbs. The  absorbing color is complementary to the color it transmits.

So, in the attached image you can see the approximate wavelengths with the colors, where they locate the wavelength with the absorbed color, you will be able to observe the complementary color that is seen or reflected.

Kobotan [32]
Any two-dimensional vector in cartesian (x,y) coordinates can be broken down into individual horizontal and vertical components using trigonometry. If a train goes up a hill with 15 degree incline at a speed of 22 m/s, the horizontal component is 22cos(15)=21.3 m/s and the vertical component is 22sin(15)=5.5 m/s.

A 200 g hockey puck is launched up a metal ramp that is inclined at a 30° angle. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

H=1020.12m

Explanation:

From a balance of energy:

\frac{m*Vo^2}{2} -mg*H=-Ff*d   where H is the height it reached, d is the distance it traveled along the ramp and Ff = μk*N.

The relation between H and d is given by:

H = d*sin(30)   Replace this into our previous equation:

\frac{m*Vo^2}{2} -mg*d*sin(30)=-\mu_k*N*d

From a sum of forces:

N -mg*cos(30) = 0    =>  N = mg*cos(30)   Replacing this:

\frac{m*Vo^2}{2} -mg*d*sin(30)=-\mu_k*mg*cos(30)*d   Now we can solve for d:

d = 2040.23m

Thus H = 1020.12m
