Trumpeter a holds a b-flat note on the trumpet for a long time. person c is running towards the trumpeter at a constant velocity. person b is running away from the trumpeter at the same rate. person d is standing still the whole time. which person hears a frequency that is lower than the b-flat?

Consider an ordinary, helium-filled party balloon with a volume of 2.2 ft3. the lifting force on the balloon due to the outside air is the net resultant of the pressure distribution exerted on the exterior surface of the balloon. using this fact, we can derive archimedes’ principle, namely that the upward force on the balloon is equal to the weight of the air displaced by the balloon. assuming that the balloon is at sea level, where the air density is 0.002377 slug/ft3, calculate the maximum weight that can be lifted by the balloon. note: the molecular weight of air is 28.8 and that of helium is 4.

Aspecimen of oil having an initial volume of 580cm^3 is subjected to a pressure increase of 4.0 mpa, and the volume is found to decrease by 0.40 cm^3. (a) what is the bulk modulus of the material? (b) what is the compressibility of the material?
