A music fan at a swimming pool is listening to a radio on a diving platform. The radio is playing a constant- frequency tone when this fellow, clutching his radio, jumps off. Describe the Doppler Effect heard by (a) a person left behind on the platform and (b) a person down below floating on a rubber raft. In each case, specify (1) whether the frequency is greater or smaller than the frequency produced by the radio, (2) whether the observed frequency is constant, and (3) how the observed frequency changes during the fall, if it does change. Give your reasoning.

Answer from: leonardoocampo4544

The Doppler Effect is given by the following relation;

$f' = \left (\dfrac{v + v_0}{v - v_s} \right) \times f$

Where;

f' = The frequency the observer hears

f = Actual frequency of the wave

v = The velocity of the sound wave

v_o = The velocity of the observer

v_s = The velocity of the source

Where the observer is stationary, we have;

(i) When the source is moving in the direction of the observer

$f' = \left (\dfrac{v }{v - v_s} \right) \times f$

(ii) When the source is receding from the observer, we have;

$f' = \left (\dfrac{v }{v + v_s} \right) \times f$

Therefore;

(a) A person left behind on the platform

For a person left behind on the platform, we have that the radio source is receding, therefore, we have;

$f' = \left (\dfrac{v }{v + v_s} \right) \times f$

(1) Given that (v + v_s ) > v, therefore, v < (v + v_s ), f' < f, the frequency heard by the person left on the platform, f', is smaller (lower) than the frequency produced by the radio

(2) The frequency is not constant as the speed of the source is increasing while it under the acceleration due to gravity

(3) During the fall, the speed of the source continuously increases under the effect of gravitational attraction and therefore the frequency heard by the person on the platform becomes progressively smaller

(b) A person down below floating on a rubber raft

For the the person down below on the rubber raft, the radio source is advancing

Therefore, the radio source is moving towards the person at rest down on the rubber raft, therefore, we have;

$f' = \left (\dfrac{v }{v - v_s} \right) \times f$

(1) Given that (v - v_s ) < v, therefore, f' > f, the frequency heard by the person down below floating on the rubber raft, f', is greater (higher) than the frequency produced by the radio

(2) The frequency is not constant as the speed of the source is increasing while it under the acceleration due to gravity

During physical science, ms. greene challenged her students to produce an energy transformation. james and jill wrapped a 4-inch nail with a coil of fifty turns of wire. they connected one end of the coil to one terminal of a knife switch. they connected the other terminal of the knife switch to the battery. finally, they connected the end of the coil to the other terminal of the battery. james held the tip of a 1-inch nail near the flat end of the 4-inch nail. jill closed the knife switch quickly and then opened it. the 1-inch nail was pulled toward the 4-inch nail. what is the best explanation of why the nail moved? a) electrical energy was converted to mechanical energy in the 1-inch nail. b) the 4-inch nail became an electromagnet and the magnetic force attracted the 1-inch nail. c) the electric current in the 4-inch nail was converted to mechanical energy in the 1-inch nail. d) the 4-inch nail had a positive charge and the 1-inch nail had a negative charge. opposites attracted.

Aboat radioed a distress call to a coast guard station. at the time of the call, a vector a from the station to the boat had a magnitude of 45.0 km and was directed 15.0° east of north. a vector from the station to the point where the boat was later found is = 30.0 km, 15.0° north of east. what are the components of the vector from the point where the distress call was made to point where the boat was found? in other words, what are the components of vector c = b - a?
