OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hovering over the pit of Hell, the devil observes that as a student falls past (with terminal velocity) the frequency of his scream decreases from f' to f''. (a) Find the speed of descent of the student. (b) The student's scream generates beats when it is mixed with its echo from the bottom of the pit. Find the number of beats per second heard by the student. (c) Find the number of beats per second heard by the devil after the student has passed by.

"Hovering over the pit of Hell, the devil observes that as a student falls past..." Tht's terrible!

OpenStudy (e.cociuba):

Ya usually you wouldn't see this kind of question asked in school. The teachers could get in trouble.

OpenStudy (ell):

That is true^^ unless they want to loose their job...

OpenStudy (e.cociuba):

Well I guess they do...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i was able to get a part v = vs (f'-f'')/(f'+f'') where vs is the sound of speed
