A bat flying at 4.60 m/s is chasing an insect flying in the same direction. The bat emits a 40.1-kHz chirp and receives back an echo at 40.5 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? YesNo     Explain.

Dolphins swimming underwater rely upon echolocation to be able to locate nearby objects. While underwater, a dolphin produces an ultrasonic sound with a frequency of 115 kHz. What is the wavelength of this sound? If, while stationary in these waters, the dolphin emits a sound pulse and receives an echo after 0.260 s, how far away must the reflecting object be from the dolphin? Take the speed of sound in ocean water to be 1530 m/s. Answer both wavelength and...

A bat flying at 5.25 m/s is chasing an insect flying at 3.49 m/s in the same direction. The bat emits a steady chirp of frequency 2000 Hz. a. What frequency, f0, does the insect hear? b. The insect becomes a moving source at frequency f0. What frequency does the bat hear reflected from the insect? c. The bat hears its own sound, plus the sound reflected by the insect. What beat frequency does the bat hear?

A fish swimming in a horizontal plane has velocity i = (4.00 + 1.00 ) m/s at a point in the ocean where the position relative to a certain rock is i = (16.0 − 1.80 ) m. After the fish swims with constant acceleration for 17.0 s, its velocity is = (23.0 − 1.00 ) m/s. (a) What are the components of the acceleration of the fish? ax = m/s2 ay = Review the definition of average acceleration and...
