A truck moving at 36 m/s passes a police car moving at 45 m/s in the opposite direction. If the frequency of the siren is 500 Hz

relative to the police car, what is the change in frequency (in Hz) heard by an observer in the truck as the two vehicles pass each other?

The variation in frequency perceived by an observer inside the truck is noted as f' = 636.36 Hz. This is derived with Vo at 36 m/s, Vf at 45 m/s, velocity V being 342 m/s, and an original frequency f of 500 Hz. The adjusted frequency f' is calculated using the formula: f' = f * ((V - (-Vo)) / (V - Vf)), leading to f' = 636.36 Hz.

If a 50.0-kg mass weighs 554 n on the planet saturn, calculate saturn’s radius
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer:

17.35 × 10^(-6) m

Explanation:

Mass; m = 50 kg

Weight; W = 554 N

From the formula:

W = mg

This simplifies to; 554 = 50g

g = 554/50

g = 11.08 m/s²

Also, using the formula;

mg = GMm/r²

hence; g = GM/r²

Rearranging gives;

r = √(GM/g)

With G as a known constant of 6.67 × 10^(-11) Nm²/kg²

r = √(6.67 × 10^(-11) × 50/11.08)

r = 17.35 × 10^(-6) m

While dangling a hairdryer by its cord, you observe that the cord is vertical when the hairdryer isoff and, once it is turned on
Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

The air exiting from the hairdryer is moving at a speed of 10 m/s.

Explanation:

The thrust generated by the hairdryer enables it to maintain an elevation angled at 5° from vertical; thus, we derive from the force diagram

(1).\: tan (5^o) = \dfrac{F_t}{Mg}

by substituting M =0.420kg, g = 9.8m/s^2 into the equation and resolving for F_t we find:

F_t = Mg\:tan(5^o)

F_t = (0.420kg)(9.8m/s^2)\:tan(5^o)

\boxed{F_t = 0.3601N.}

This thrust is linked to the speed of air ejection v through the equation

(2).\: F_t = v\dfrac{dM}{dt}

where dM/dt signifies the rate of air ejection, which is known to be

0.06m^3/2s  = 0.03m^3/s

and since 1m^3 = 1.2kg,

0.03m^3/s \rightarrow 0.036kg/s

\dfrac{dM}{dt}  = 0.036kg/s,

by inserting these values into equation (2), we obtain the value of F_t as:

0.3601N = 0.036v

resulting in

v= \dfrac{0.3601}{0.036}

\boxed{v =10m/s.}

which indicates the air velocity discharged from the hairdryer.
