- The Doppler equation presented in the text is valid when the motion between the observer and the source occurs on a straight line so that the source and observer are moving either directly toward or directly away from each other. If this restriction is relaxed, one must use the more general Doppler equation f=(v+vocosovvscoss)f where o and s are defined in figure P13.7la. Use the preceding equation to solve the following problem. A train moves at a constant speed of v = 25.0 m/s toward the intersection shown in Figure P13.71b. A car is stopped near the crossing, 30.0 m from the tracks. The trains horn emits a frequency of 500 Hz when the train is 40.0 m from the intersection. (a) What is the frequency heard by the passengers in the car? (b) If the train emits this sound continuously and the car is stationary at this position long before the train arrives until long after it leaves, what range of frequencies do passengers in the car hear? (c) Suppose the car is foolishly trying to beat the train to the intersection and is traveling at 40.0 m/s toward the tracks. When the car is 30.0 m from the tracks and the train is 40.0 m from the intersection, what is the frequency heard by the passengers in the car now?arrow_forwardThe displacement of the air molecules in sound wave is modeled with the wave function s(x,t)=5.00nmcos(91.54m1x3.14104s1t) .

(c) What is the magnitude of the maximum acceleration of the air molecules as they oscillate in simple harmonic motion?arrow_forwardA sound wave traveling in air has a pressure amplitude of 0.5 Pa.

- Review. A 150-g glider moves at v1 = 2.30 m/s on an air track toward an originally stationary 200-g glider as shown in Figure P16.53. The gliders undergo a completely inelastic collision and latch together over a time interval of 7.00 ms. A student suggests roughly half the decrease in mechanical energy of the two-glider system is transferred to the environment by sound. Is this suggestion reasonable? To evaluate the idea, find the implied sound level at a position 0.800 m from the gliders. If the students idea is unreasonable, suggest a better idea. Figure P16 53arrow_forwardAn interstate highway has been built through a neighborhood in a city.
