If I change the actual frequency of an object in circular motion, does this effect the range of observed frequencies heard at a certain distance away from the moving object? For example, if I had an object moving in a circle with a frequency of 500 hz moving at a constant speed, would the difference between the highest and lowest observed frequencies be the same as if the actual frequency was 1000 Hz? If not, how would the range of frequencies change?

Describe what interventions you would be prepared for immediately after the delivery of the infant.
2. scenario: An infant of a diabetic mother is admitted to the newborn nursery.

A 1-kg ball is tied to the end of a 2-meter string and revolved in a horizontal plane making a 30o angle with the vertical.
(a) What is the ball's speed?
(b) If the ball is now revolved so that its speed is 4m/s, what angle does the string need to make with the vertical?
(c) If the string can withstand a maximum tension of 10 N, what is the highest speed at which the ball can travel?

Marginal tax rates were cut substantially during the 1980s, and although rates were increased in the early 1990s, the marginal rates applicable in the highest income brackets were still well below the top rates of the 1960s and 1970s. How did the lower rates of the 1980s and 1990s affect the share of taxes paid by high income taxpayers? Were the lower rates of the 1980s and the 1990s good or bad for the economy?
