An ambulance traveling eastbound at 114.0 km/h with sirens blaring at a frequency of 6.50 ✕ 102 Hz passes cars traveling in both the eastbound and westbound directions at 59.0 km/h. (Assume the speed of sound is 343 m/s.)

(a) What is the frequency observed by the eastbound drivers as the ambulance approaches from behind? Hz

(b) What is the frequency observed by the eastbound drivers after the ambulance passes them? Hz

(d) What is the frequency observed by the westbound drivers after the ambulance passes them? Hz

A cameraman on a pickup truck is traveling westward at 23 km/h while he videotapes a cheetah that is moving westward 23 km/h faster than the truck. Suddenly, the cheetah stops, turns, and then run at 48 km/h eastward, as measured by a suddenly nervous crew member who stands alongside the cheetah's path. The change in the animal's velocity takes 2.2 s. What are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the animal’s acceleration according to the cameraman and the...

A speeding motorist zooms through a 50 km/h zone at 75 km/h (21 m/s) without noticing a stationary police car. The police officer immediatley heads after the speeder, accelerating at 2.5m/s^2. When the officer catches up to the speeder, how far down the raod are they, and how fast is the police car going? I know you use the equations x= x_0+ v_0t+ .5at^2 and v= V_0 + at... But I want to know why we use these equations and...
