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

Two planets having equal masses are in circular orbit around a star. Planet A has a smaller orbital radius than planet B. Which
serg [1189]

Answer:

Explanation:

To approach this problem, we need to understand two key concepts.

First, the gravitational force on an object in orbit equals its mass multiplied by centripetal acceleration.

Secondly, Newton's law of universal gravitation defines the force between two masses: Fg = mMG/r², where Fg denotes gravitational force, m and M signify the masses, G represents the gravitational constant, and r indicates the distance separating the two masses.

Thus:

Fg = m v²/r

mMG/r² = m v²/r

v² = MG/r

Potential energy for each planet is expressed as:

PE = mgr = m (MG/r²) r = mMG/r

Kinetic energy for each planet is computed as:

KE = 1/2 mv² = 1/2 m (MG/r) = 1/2 mMG/r

Total mechanical energy is calculated as:

ME = PE + KE = 3/2 mMG/r

Since both planets share the same mass, the only variable is their orbital radius. Consequently, Planet A, with a smaller radius, possesses greater potential, kinetic, and mechanical energy.

A particular brand of gasoline has a density of 0.737 g/mLg/mL at 25 ∘C∘C. How many grams of this gasoline would fill a 14.9 gal
Yuliya22 [1153]

Answer:

The answer to your inquiry is Mass = 41230.7 g or 41.23 kg.

Explanation:

Data

Density = 0.737 g/ml

Mass = ?

Volume = 14.9 gal

1 gal = 3.78 l

Process

1.- Convert gallons to liters

1 gal ---------------- 3.78 l

14.9 gal ------------- x

x = 56.44 l

2.- Convert liters to milliliters

1 l ------------------- 1000 ml

56.44 l --------------- x

x = (56.44 x 1000) / 1

x = 56444 ml

3.- Calculate the mass

Formula

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Solving for mass

Mass = density x volume

Substituting values

Mass = 0.737 x 56444

Result

Mass = 41230.7 g or 41.23 kg.

An object is attached to a hanging unstretched ideal and massless spring and slowly lowered to its equilibrium position, a dista
Sav [1081]

Answer:

        h = 12.8 cm

Explanation:

The initial parameters are as follows:

distance = 6.4 cm

  • when the object descends, its weight matches the spring's force

        weight = spring force

         mg = ky... equation 1

  • potential energy stored in a stretched spring = work done by the spring

        mgh = 0.5 x k x h^{2}....equation 2

  • Substituting from equation 1 into equation 2

                kyh =  0.5 x k x h^{2}

                y =  0.5 x h

                2y = h

  • where y is 6.4, yielding the maximum elongation as

          h = 2 x 6.4 = 12.8 cm

If the coefficient of static friction between a table and a uniform massive rope is μs, what fraction of the rope can hang over
inna [974]
Here's the procedure explained: Assume F represents the portion of the rope that is extending over the table. In this scenario, the frictional force that holds the rope on the table can be calculated using the formula: Ff = u*(1-f)*m*g. Additionally, it is important to determine the gravitational force that attempts to pull the rope off the table, Fg, calculated through: Fg = f*m*g. You then need to set these two equations equal to each other and resolve for f: f*m*g = u*(1-f)*m*g leads to f = u*(1-f) = u - uf. Simplifying gives f + uf = u, which results in f = u/(1+u) representing the fraction of the rope. This will lead you to the final answer.
