A car travelling at 25ms-1 in a straight line sounds its horn continuously, frequency 400 Hz,

as it passes a stationary observer. At the closest point, A, to the observer the car is at a
distance
from the observer. Determine the frequency heard by the observer
when the car is: (i) at A; (ii) at a distance
m from A, after passing A.
[Take velocity of sound as 343 ms-1]

The largest moon of Jupiter, Ganymede, revolves around the planet in a circular orbit
of radius 1.07 x 106 km and period 7.16 days. Determine the mass of Jupiter.
The radius of the Earth RE = 6.38 x 106 m & Mass of Earth ME = 6.0 1024 Kg
Two 1.00 m lengths of wire, one copper and one tungsten, are joined vertically end to end.
The copper wire has a diameter of 0.500 mm. When a 100 kg block is suspended from one
end, the combined length of wire stretches by 6.00 cm. Calculate the diameter, d, of the
tungsten wire if the Youngs modulus for copper is 12.4 x 10 10 Pa, and that for tungsten is
35.5 x 1010 Pa.

A horizontal bar, 8.0 m in length, has a 2.0 m rope attached at each

end, with a small metal sphere at each end of each rope hanging
under gravity. When the bar rotates about a vertical axis through its
centre, the ropes are inclined at 30 to the vertical. Determine the
period, , of rotation of the system.

A beaker is fitted with a heating coil and stirrer and contains 40.0 cm3 of liquid A.
When the power dissipated in the heating coil is 4.80 W, the temperature of the contents rises
from 15.0C to 35.0C in 400 s. The experiment is repeated using 20.0 cm3 of liquid A mixed
with 20.0 cm3 of liquid B. It is found that, with a heater power of 4.90 W, the temperature
again rises from 15.0C to 35.0C in 400 s.
Determine
(i) the specific heat capacity, s, of B and
(ii) the heat lost, H, in both experiments.
Density of A is 1.60 x 103 kg m-3, Specific heat capacity of A is 8.60 x 102 J kg-1 K-1
Density of B is 2.00 x 103 kg m-3
