At an auto race, a member of the pit crew stands beside the track. a car approaches him at 100 m/s and emits a sound at frequency 1100hz. the air is still and the speed of sound is 340mls. what frequency will the pit crew member hear? a.1560hz b.1420hz c.1640hz d.850hz

A. 1560 Hz

Explanation:

The Doppler effect occur when a source of a wave (like sound) is moving relative to an observer (or when the observer is moving relative to the source). When this happens, the apparent frequency of the sound as heard by the observer is shifted with respect to the real frequency, according to the formula:

where

f' is the apparent frequency

v is the speed of the wave

vs is the velocity of the source relative to the observer (positive if the source is moving towards the observer, negative if it is moving away from the observer)

f is the real frequency of the wave

In this problem, we have the following data:

f = 1100 Hz is the original frequency of the sound

v = 340 m/s is the speed of the sound wave

is the velocity of the car approaching the pit crew

Substituting these numbers into the formula, we can find the frequency heard by the pit crew:

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
