A baseball hits a car, breaking its window and triggering its alarm which sounds at a frequency of 1210 Hz. What frequency (in H

z) is heard by a boy on a bicycle riding away from the car at 8.25 m/s? Take the speed of sound to be 343 m/s.

The frequency perceived by the boy is 1181 Hz. The speed from the alarm is -8.25 m/s, indicating the boy is moving away from it. The sound speed is 343 m/s. We must calculate the frequency that the boy hears using the appropriate formula.

serg [3582]

Answer:

B= \sqrt{65} ≅8.06

Explanation:

Applying the Pythagorean theorem:

C^{2}= A^{2} + B^{2}

Here, C denotes the hypotenuse length, while A and B signify the lengths of the other two sides of the triangle. We can calculate B's length knowing the hypotenuse is 9 and A is 4.

9^{2}=4^{2} + B^{2}

81= 16+ B^{2}

81-16= B^{2}

B= \sqrt{65} ≅8.06

A string is stretched by two equal but opposite forces f newton each what is tension in string
Maru [3345]

The string does not experience any force of tension, as it balances two forces acting in the same direction. Hence, the tension is zero.

Explanation:

If tension existed in the string, it would mean that two equal but opposite forces are exerting pull in contrary directions.

When a force of f newtons is applied from the right and another force of f newtons from the left, the resulting action occurs through one force. Because there is action on the same string in opposing directions, the tension in the string can only be equal to the magnitude of the string itself.

Therefore, the string indeed has no tension since it is dealing with two forces acting in the same direction. Thus, the tension is zero.

A block of mass m, initially held at rest on a frictionless ramp a vertical distance H above the floor, slides down the ramp and
kicyunya [3294]

Answer:

\displaystyle W=-m.g.H

Explanation:

Transformation of Energy

Also known as energy conversion, this refers to the process in which energy shifts from one type to another. In this context, three energy forms are involved. When the object is stationary at the ramp's peak, it possesses gravitational potential energy, calculated as

U=m.g.H

As the object descends the frictionless ramp, it converts all its potential energy into kinetic energy, represented as

\displaystyle K=\frac{m.v^2}{2}

Thus,

K=m.g.H

Ultimately, when the object encounters a rough surface, all energy converts to thermal energy. The work performed by the friction force corresponds to the alteration in kinetic energy, as all velocity is lost in this process:

\displaystyle W=\Delta E=K_f-K=0-K=-\frac{m.v^2}{2}

Given the kinetic energy equals the initial potential energy:

\boxed{\displaystyle W=-m.g.H}

The negative sign indicates that the work acted against the direction of movement, meaning the force and displacement are 180° apart.

This outcome is independent of the distance D needed to halt the block or the kinetic friction coefficient.
