On a particularly foggy night, a boat travels due east at 10 m/s. there are safety lights, but with the low visibility, the captain opts to sound the horn for 3 seconds every 5 seconds. the captain hears a beat frequency on the third blast he watches his compass and turns hard port maintaining the turn. when he no longer hears the beat, he straightens out his heading.
1. what caused the beat frequency?
2. why did turning stop the beat?
3. what was the frequency of the beat assuming lsound = 350 m/s?

We want to calculate the total metabolic heat generated by a singing canary taking into account heat transfer by radiation, convection and exhaling air. the air temperature is 20 oc, canary’s body internal and surface temperature is 33oc, external body surface convective heat transfer coefficient is 25.2 w/m2 .k, temperature difference between the inhaled and exhaled air is 4.3 oc, the ventilation rate is 0.74 cc of air per second, specific heat of air is 1.0066 kj/kg.k and density of air is 1.16 kg/m3 . assume the canary’s body to be a cylinder with 7 cm diameter and 9 cm length, and heat exchange is from the side as well as the top and bottom of cylinder. calculate 1) the net rate of heat lost by radiation, assuming heat gained by the bird through radiation from the surroundings is 11.5 w; 2) rate of heat transferred by convection to the surrounding air; 3) rate of heat transferred in the exhaling air without considering any internal evaporation; 4) total metabolic power.
