Explanation / Answer

(a) given , observer is rest = vo = 0                 sorce speed (train )vs = 31m/s               frequency of train horn n= 353Hz      speed of sound = v = 343m/s from the doppler effect when source is at rest andfrequency heard by observer is given by following eq          n1= n * v/v-vs                = 353 * 343/343-31 = 353* 343/312                = 388Hz (b) length of wire = L = 525m    total mass = m = 24.2kg tenstion of wire = T = 1956N wavelength = = 0.495m    veleocity of wave on the wire = v =T/ where is liner mass density which gives = m/L =24.2/525 = 0.046kg/m                   then v = 1956/0.046 = 206.2m/s frequency of wire = n = 1/2L*T/                      plug values and caliculate we wil get frequency of this wave.                             = 1/2*525 * 206.2 = 19.63*10-6 Hz                = 353 * 343/343-31 = 353* 343/312                = 388Hz (b) length of wire = L = 525m    total mass = m = 24.2kg tenstion of wire = T = 1956N wavelength = = 0.495m    veleocity of wave on the wire = v =T/ where is liner mass density which gives = m/L =24.2/525 = 0.046kg/m                   then v = 1956/0.046 = 206.2m/s frequency of wire = n = 1/2L*T/                      plug values and caliculate we wil get frequency of this wave.                             = 1/2*525 * 206.2 = 19.63*10-6 Hz
