2. From a vantage point very close to the track at a stock car race, you hear the sound emitted by a moving car. You detect a frequency that is 0.852 times smaller than that emitted by the car when it is stationary. The speed of sound is 343 m/s. What is the speed of the car?

3.Hearing damage may occur when a person is exposed to a sound intensity level of 90.0 dB (relative to the threshold of human hearing) for a period of 9.00 hours. An eardrum has an area of 2.71 x 10-4 m2. How much sound energy is incident on the eardrum during this time?

A race car starts from rest on a circular track of radius 490 m. The car's speed increases at the constant rate of 0.430 m/s2. At the point where the magnitudes of the centripetal and tangential accelerations are equal, find the following. (a) the speed of the race car m/s (b) the distance traveled m ( c) the elapsed time s

Sensation and perception are critical to survival and are separate events that, from the vantage point of the perceiver, feel like one single process. A sensation is a simple awareness that results from stimulation of a sense organ, whereas perception organizes, identifies, and interprets sensation at the level of the brain in order to form a mental representation. All sensory modalities depend on the process of transduction, which converts physical signals from the environment into neural signals carried by sensory...

Alice is driving a race car around an essentially circular track.  Brian, who is sitting at a fixed position at the edge of the track, measures the time that Alice takes to complete a lap by starting his watch when Alice passes by his position (call this event E) and stopping it when Alice passes his positin again (call this event F).  This situation is also observed by Cara and Dave, who are passengers in a train that passes very close to...

king Arthur’s knights use a catapult to launch a rock from their vantage point on top of the castle wall, 15m above the moat. the rock is launched at a speed of 27m/s and an angle of 32 degrees above the horizontal. how far from the castle wall does the launched rock hit the ground?

A race car driver tested his car for the time it takes to go from 0 to 60 mph, and for 20 tests obtained a mean of 4.85 seconds with a standard deviation of 1.47 seconds. These times are known to be normally distributed. What is the value of t used to construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean time it takes the car to go from 0 to 60? Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

A race car starts from rest, accelerates at a constant rate of 3.8 m/s^2 for 23s, and then brakes (decelerates) at a constant rate of 5.6 m/s^2 (magnitude) until it comes to a stop. (a) Find the total distance traveled by the car before coming to rest. (b) Draw a graph of the velocity vs. time, and indicate numerical values of any “special points”on the graph.

A tennis ball is lobbed (from very close to the ground) at a speed of 11.5 m/s and an angle of 47.9 degrees to the horizontal. (a) Find the horizontal distance traveled by the ball (the range) (b) At what other angle will one obtain the same range? (c) Which angle gives the highest point attained by the ball and what is this maximum height? (In all cases ignore air resistance)

An object moves along a straight track from the point (4,−4,1) to the point (6,6,−7). The only force acting on it is a constant F=−5i−5j+4k newtons. Find the work done in joules if the distance is measured in meters.

25. Platinum Water Technology is evaluating the race track project, a 2-year project that would involve buying equipment for 38,000 dollars that would be depreciated to zero over 2 years using straight-line depreciation. Cash flows from capital spending would be $0 in year 1 and 24,000 dollars in year 2. Relevant annual revenues are expected to be 58,000 dollars in year 1 and 58,000 dollars in year 2. Relevant expected annual variable costs from the project are expected to be...
