An ambulance driving 50.0 m/s emits a sound wave with a wavelength of 80.0 centimeters. As it drives toward a hospital, which of the following is the only possible frequency heard by the medical staff who are standing at the entrance? Speed of sound is 343 m/s.

502 Hz

Explanation:

Initial frequency, F is given by F=v/w where f is frequency, v is speed of sound in air and w is wavelength. Therefore, substituting 80cm whicj is 0.8 m for w and 343 m/s for v then

F=343/0.8=428.75 Hz

The frequency at entrance, f will be given by

where va is speed of ambulance, v is speed of sound in air, F is initial frequency. Substituting 343 m/s for v, 428.75 Hz for original frequency and 50 m/s for speed of ambulance then

answer would be letter choice (a),   a ball resting on a shelf. would be another example of potential energy   >   stored energy > not moving.

a ball spinning on a finger   >   kinetic energy > moving energy

a ball rolling on the ground   >   kinetic energy   > moving energy

a   ball flying through the air   > kinetic energy   >   moving energy
