Textbook Question
Chapter 33, Problem 69P
A source emitting light with frequency f moves toward you at speed u. By considering both time dilation and the effect of wavefronts “piling up“ as shown in Fig. 14.33, show that you measure a Doppler-shifted frequency given by
f′=f√c+uc−u
Use the binomial approximation (Appendix A) to show that this result can be written in the form of Equation 14.15 when u ≪ c.

13.
After a gust of wind, an orb weaver spider with a mass of 35 g, hanging on a strand of web of length L = .420 m, undergoes simple harmonic motion (SHO) with an amplitude A and period T.
If the spider climbs 12.0 cm up the web without perturbing the oscillation otherwise, what is the period of oscillation, in Hz to three significant figures?
15.
An object of mass m = 8.10 kg is attached to an ideal spring and allowed to hang in the earth's gravitational field. The spring stretches 23.10 cm before it reaches its equilibrium position. The mass then undergoes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 10.5 cm.
Calculate the velocity of the mass in m/s at a time t= 1.00s to three significant figures.
please solve and answer the question correctly. Thank you!!
