Mrs. Gonzalez is about to give birth and Mr. Gonzalez is rushing her to the hospital at a speed of 30.0 m/s. Witnessing the spee

ding car, Officer O'Malley jumps in his police car and turns on the siren, whose frequency is 800. Hz. If the officer chases after the Gonzalez' car with a speed of 35.0 m/s, what frequency do the Gonzalezes hear as the officer approaches?

Ostrovityanka [3.2K]4 months ago
3 0

Answer: The frequency is 1714.3 Hz

Explanation: The calculation is derived from the Doppler effect formula.

Since the source is approaching the observer, the observer's velocity is considered positive.

Refer to the attached document for the detailed derivation

We fully submerge an irregular lump of material in a certain fluid. The fluid that would have been in the space now occupied by
Ostrovityanka [3204]

Answer:

the lump descends

Explanation:

The full articulation of the query is

Upon fully submerging a 3 kg lump of material in a certain fluid, the fluid that would have occupied the space now filled by the lump weighs 2 kg. (a) When released, does the lump float up, sink, or remain steady

(a)

F_{b} = Buoyant force acting upward on the lump

M = mass of irregular lump = 3 kg

m = mass of fluid displaced = 2 kg

The upward buoyant force on the lump is given by the weight of the displaced fluid, thus

F_{b} = mg = (2) (9.8) = 19.6 N

the weight of the irregular lump of material is represented as

W = mg\\W = (3) (9.8)\\W = 29.4 N

Given that the weight of the lump downward exceeds the upward buoyant force, the lump will indeed descend

Suppose you are drinking root beer from a conical paper cup. The cup has a diameter of 10 centimeters and a depth of 13 centimet
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer:

The rate at which the root beer level is decreasing is 0.08603 cm/s.

Explanation:

The formula for the volume of the cone is:

V=\frac {1}{3}\times \pi\times r^2\times h

Where V denotes the cone's volume

r indicates the radius

h signifies the height

The ratio of radius to height remains consistent throughout the cone.

Thus, we have r = d / 2 = 10 / 2 cm = 5 cm

h is 13 cm

Consequently, r / h = 5 / 13

r = {5 / 13} h

V=\frac {1}{3}\times \frac {22}{7}\times ({{{\frac {5}{13}\times h}}})^2\times h

V=\frac {550}{3549}\times h^3

Additionally, we differentiate the volume expression in relation to time:

\frac {dV}{dt}=\frac {550}{3549}\times 3\times h^2\times \frac {dh}{dt}

Given that \frac {dV}{dt} = -4 cm³/sec (the negative sign indicates outflow)

h equals 10 cm

Hence,

-4=\frac{550}{3549}\times 3\times {10}^2\times \frac {dh}{dt}

\frac{55000}{1183}\times \frac {dh}{dt}=-4

\frac {dh}{dt}=-0.08603\ cm/s

The rate at which the root beer level is decreasing is 0.08603 cm/s.

Oceanographers use submerged sonar systems, towed by a cable from a ship, to map the ocean floor. In addition to their downward
Yuliya22 [3333]
The tension exerted in the cable amounts to T = 16653.32 N. Parameters: Cross section area A = 1.3 m² Drag coefficient CD = 1.2 Velocity V = 4.3 m/s The angle formed by the cable with the horizontal is 30 degrees. Density defined as follows: The drag force FD is determined by the equation: FD = (1/2) * ρ * V² * A * CD Calculating the drag force yields 14422.2 N acting opposite to motion. Given the cable's angle of 30 degrees with horizontal, the horizontal component contributes to the drag force calculation: T * cos(30) = F_D Thus, T = 16653.32 N.
