Seiche

A seiche is an oscillating standing wave in a body of water. The term seiche pronounced saysh) can be understood by the sloshing of water back and forth in a swimming pool. The same phenomenon happens on a much larger scale in vast bodies of water including bays and lakes. A seizure can happen in any enclosed or semi-enclosed body of water.

5. A quantum object travels directly toward you at a constant rate while producing a sound with a singular frequency of 440 Hz. While you stand still, the object passes through you and continues Moving (you are uninjured). You measure an overall shift in the frequency you hear to be 25.0 Hz. Assume is it 20.0 °C during this shift. a) What is the speed of this particle? b) After is passes through you, you notice that your wallet is missing and see it attached to this particle. You begin accelerating toward the particle at a constant rate of 1.50 m/s² via ion propelled roller shoes. At what time do you perceive a frequency of 435 Hz? c) You stop accelerating when you perceive a frequency of 435 Hz and continue to travel at a constant rate at which time the particle then instantaneously reverses it path to return your wallet, traveling back toward you at its same constant rate which it initially had. What frequency do you then perceive at it travels toward you?
