The wave y (x,t) = Asin (kx − wt + (lambda sign)) has an amplitude of 0.245 cm and a period of 85.2 ms. What is the maximum particle velocity? Answer in m / s.
Many galaxies have supermassive black holes at their centers. As material swirls around such a black hole, it is heated, becomes ionized, and generates strong magnetic fields. The resulting magnetic forces steer some of the material into high-speed jets that blast out of the galaxy and into intergalactic space. The light we observe from the jet has a frequency of 6.66x10^14 Hz (in the far ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum), but in the reference frame of the jet material, the light has a frequency of 5.55x10^13 Hz (in the infrared). What is the speed of the jet material with respect to us?
A bat flying at 4.65 m/s is chasing an insect flying in the same direction. The bat emits a 39.9-kHz chirp and receives back an echo at 40.6 kHz. (Take the speed of sound in air to be v = 343 m/s.)
(a) What is the speed of the insect? m/s(b) Will the bat be able to catch the insect?
