As you zip through space in your PPS (personal propulsion suit), your pulse rate as you count it is 111 bpm (beats per minute).
This high pulse rate serves as objective evidence of your excitement. However, an observer on the Moon, an expert in pulse rate
telemetry, measures your pulse rate as slower. In fact, she detects only 0.515 times the rate you count and claims that you must
be pretty calm in spite of everything that is going on. How fast are you moving with respect to the Moon?

- Many galaxies have supermassive black holes at their centres.As material swirls around such a black hole,it is heated,become ionized and generates strong magnetic fields.the resulting magnetic forces steer some of the material into high speeds jets that blast out of the galaxy and into intergalactic space.The light we observe from the jet in fig.has frequency of 6.66(10^14 hz) (in the far ultra voilet region of the electromagnetic spectrum)but in the reference frame of the jet material the light has frequency of 5.55(10^13 hz)(in the infrared).What is the speed of the jet material with respect to us?arrow_forwardAs you zip through space in your PPS (personal propulsion suit), your pulse rate as you count it is 119 bpm (beats per minute).

Satellites observing these waves from space measured 800 km from one wave crest to the next and a period between waves of 1.0 hour. The speed of the waves were 800 km/h. How does the speed of the wave help you understand why the waves caused such devastation?arrow_forward
- An observer at the ground hears thunder 10 s after he sees a lightning flash, and the thunder lasts for 8 s. How far is the observer from the closest point of the lightning flash and what is the minimum length of the flash? Under what conditions would the length of the flash you have calculated be equal to the true length? (Speed of sound is 0.34 km s-1.)arrow_forwardLightning storm creates both lightning and thunder. You see the lightning almost immediately since light travels at 3 × 108m · s−1. After seeing the lightning, you count 5 s and then you hear the thunder. Calculate the distance to the location of the storm. Convert into kilometers.arrow_forwardA P-wave from an earthquake travels at a speed of 13 km/s through the Earth's inner core. The density of the kg inner core is about 13- cm3 13000 , close to that of mercury. From the speed of a P wave, determine the bulk m3 modulus of the inner core material in units of N = Pa.

- The Tunguska event refers to a meteor impact on June 30, 1908. On that day, a meteor entered the Earth's atmosphere, burned up, and exploded in the air above the Tunguska River valley in Russia. It knocked down trees over thousands of square kilometers and started a forest fire, but produced no crater, and apparently caused no human casualties. A witness sitting on his doorstep outside the zone of falling trees recalled events in the following sequence. He saw a bright light moving in the sky, descending towards Earth at a low angle to the horizon. Suddenly, he felt his face become warm. Then, he felt the ground shake. Next, an invisible force threw him about a meter away from where he was seated. Finally, he heard a very loud rumbling sound. What types of waves are involved in each of these observations? Explain why these events happened in the order described.arrow_forwardYou are hiking along a trail in a wide, dry canyon where the outdoor temperature is T=28.5 degrees celsius. To determine how far you are away from the canyon wall you yell "hello" and hear the echo t=3.05s later. a) calculate the speed of sound in the valley in meters per second, assuming the speed at 0 degrees celsius is 332 m/s b) how far are you from the canyon wall, in meters? c) if you stood at the same point on a cold morning where the temperature was T2= -1.5 degrees C, how long would it have taken for you to hear the echo, in seconds?arrow_forwardThe Cubs are putting on a fireworks show at Wrigley Field after the game on a brisk autumn evening when the temperature is 12 °C (54 °F). After the flash of an explosion, it takes spectators 0.600 s to hear the bang. How far away was the explosion? The speed of sound at 21 °C is 344 m/s.arrow_forward
- While hunting for moths to eat, a bat emits a chirp that lasts for 2.10 ms and then is silent while it listens for the echo. If the beginning of the echo returns just after the outgoing chirp is finished, how close to the moth is the bat? The bat is flying toward the moth at a speed of 4.40 m/s and the moth is flying away from the bat at 1.20 m/s. Assume it is a cool night with a temperature of 10.0°C. Speed of sound in air at 0°C is 331 m/s (see table 12.1). in cmarrow_forwardOn a 20°C°C night, a bat hovering in the air emits an ultrasonic chirp that has a frequency of 45 kHzkHz. It hears an echo 60 msms later. Suppose the object is an insect flying straight away from the bat. What is the insect's speed if the ultrasonic echo is shifted down in frequency by 750 Hz?arrow_forward30. A man drops a rock into a well and he hears the splash 3.00 seconds later. If the air temperature is 27°C, how far below the top of the well is the surface of the water?
