A friend rides, in turn, the rims of three fast merry-go-rounds while holding a sound source that emits isotropically at a certain frequency. You stand far from each merry-go-round. The frequency you hear for each of your friend's three rides varies as the merry-go-round rotates. The variations in frequency for the three rides are given by the three curves in Fig. 17.5. Rank the curves according to (a) the linear speed of the sound source, (b) the angular speeds of the merry-go-rounds, and (c) the radii r of the merry-go-rounds, greatest first.

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

The Ranking of the curve according to their speed would be equal Rank because v_1 =v_2 =v_3

The first frequency would have a higher rank compared to the other two which will have the same ranking when ranked with respect to their angular velocities because

w_1 w_2 = w_3

The ranking of the second third frequency would be the same but their ranking would be greater than that of the first frequency because

r_2 =r_3 r_1

Explanation:

Mathematically Frequency can be represented as

$F = \frac{v}{\lambda}$

Where $\lambda$ is the wavelength and v is the velocity

Now looking at the diagram we see that

For the first frequency we have

Let the wavelength be $\lambda_1 = \lambda$ , and the frequency F_1 = F

For the second frequency

Let the wavelength be $\lambda_2 = 2 \lambda$ , and the frequency $F_2 = \frac{F}{2}$

For the third frequency

Let the wavelength be $\lambda_3 = 2\lambda$ , and the frequency $F_3 = \frac{F}{2}$

To obtain v for each of the frequency we make v the subject in the equation above for each frequency

So,

For the first frequency we have

$v_1 = \lambda_1 F_1 = \lambda F$

For the second frequency

$v_2 = \lambda_2 F_2 = 2 \lambda*\frac{F} {2} = \lambda F$

For the third frequency

$v_3 = \lambda_3 F_3 = 2 \lambda*\frac{F} {2} = \lambda F$

Hence

The Ranking of the curve according to their speed would be equal Rank because v_1 =v_2 =v_3

Mathematically angular speed can be represented as

$w = 2 \pi f$

For the first frequency we have

$w_1 = 2\pi F_1 = 2 \pi F$

For the second frequency

$w_2 = 2 \pi F_2 = 2 \pi \frac{F}{2} = \pi F$

For the third frequency

$w_3 = 2 \pi F_3 = 2 \pi \frac{F}{2} = \pi F$

Hence

The first frequency would have a higher rank compared to the other two which will have the same ranking when ranked with respect to their angular velocities because

w_1 w_2 = w_3

Mathematically the relationship between the angular velocity and the linear velocity can be represented as

v = wr

=> $r = \frac{v}{w}$

Since the linear velocity is constant we have that

$r \ \alpha \ \frac{1}{w}$

This means that r varies inversely to the angular velocity ,What this means for ranking due to the radius is that the ranking of the second third frequency would be the same but their ranking would be greater than that of the first frequency because

r_2 =r_3 r_1

Answer from: Quest

molecules are free to separate from each other and will take on the shape of the container. molecules move completely at random and high speeds. they vibrate in a fixed position and do not move around much. molecules expand to the edge of their container.

Air enters a gas turbine with two stages of compression and two stages of expansion at 100 kpa and 17°c. this system uses a regenerator as well as reheating and intercooling – the intercooler returns the air to the inlet temperature. the pressure ratio across each compressor is 4 ; 300 kj/kg of heat are added to the air in each combustion chamber; and the regenerator operates perfectly while increasing the temperature of the cold air by 20°c. determine the system’s thermal efficiency. assume isentropic operations for all compressor and the turbine stages and use constant specific heats at room temperature.
