Answers

Answer 1

Answer: choices a and b

Explanation:

Telescope can be defined as am optical instrument which is designed to observe the distant objects clear and nearer. It comprises of arrangement of lenses which allow the rays of light to be collected. The collected light is focused and the image so produced is magnified in the form of an image. The telescopes are prepared and manufactured on mountains top as this will help in preventing the distortion of light obtain from the star due to the fluctuation of air mass in the atmosphere. The atmospheric distortion affects the resolution, and affects the vision. The atmospheric pressure is low at the mountain tops so it will help in better observation of the sky.

Answers

Answer:

a dark (absorption) line.

Explanation:

A star is a giant astronomical or celestial object that is comprised of a luminous sphere of plasma, binded together by its own gravitational force.

It is typically made up of two (2) main hot gas, Hydrogen (H) and Helium (He).

Light wave can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that do not require a medium of propagation for it to travel through a vacuum of space where no particles exist.

A telescope can be defined as an optical instrument or device which comprises of a curved mirror and lenses used for viewing distant objects i.e objects that are very far away such as stars and other planetary bodies.

If continuous spectrum light from a star passes through a cool, low-density gas on its way to your telescope and spectroscope, a dark (absorption) line spectrum on the continuous spectrum results, which ultimately implies that the color is being absorbed and the absorption of specific frequencies of light by a hot gas.

Answers

Hurricanes are powered by heat energy in the atmosphere and the ocean. Typically, one hurricane uses an amount of heat roughly equal to Z thousand atomic bombs. If the excess heat built up in Earth's atmosphere since 1850 went into producing hurricanes, about how many more hurricanes might we expect in the world every year?

Answers

Answer:

In an year about 6 major hurricanes and 3 minor storms occurs.

Explanation:

Hurricanes are increasing in number and frequency to the increasing impact of global warming. As current research states that climate change in the tropics results in an increased storm frequency. The presence of extra heat in the air or the oceans form the stoma that leads to the production of such energy. According to o the 200-2007 data shows in the huge increase in the storm frequency and this suggests the impact of climate warming.

Sodium lamps give off light at
589 nm. When that light passes
through a diffraction grating with
d = 3.88 x 10-6 m, what is the angle of
its second order (m = 2) maximum?

Answers

Answer:

θ = 17.67°

Explanation:

The grating equation can be used here to find the angle. The grating equation is given as follows:

[tex]m\lambda = dSin\ \theta[/tex]

where,

m = order = 2

d = 3.88 x 10⁻⁶ m

λ = wavelength of light = 589 nm = 5.89 x 10⁻⁷ m

θ = angle = ?

Therefore, using these values in the equation, we get:

[tex](2)(5.89\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m) = (3.88\ x\ 10^{-6}\ m)Sin\theta \\Sin\theta = \frac{(2)(5.89\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m)}{(3.88\ x\ 10^{-6}\ m)}\\\\\theta = Sin^{-1}(0.3036)[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Density = 3 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Volume = 3m³

Mass = 9 kg

To find the density;

Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.

Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.

Mathematically, density is given by the formula;

[tex]Density = \frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex]Density = \frac{9}{3}[/tex]

Density = 3 kg/m³

Oxygen has an atomic number 8, because it has 8 protons and 8 electrons.

The first shell of an atom can hold up to 2 electrons but oxygen has 8 electrons, in that eight electrons 2 are in the first shell, so it has 6 more electrons left. The second shell can hold up to 8 electrons, oxygen has only 6 more electrons after the first shell is full, so it will have 6 electrons in the second shell

From this we know that oxygen has 2 shells so it is in period 2, and by counting from left to right, the sixth box in period 2 lies on group 16

Therefore Oxygen lies on group 16 and period 2

Answers

Answer:

Find answers below.

Explanation:

Velocity can be defined as the rate of change in displacement (distance) with time. Velocity is a vector quantity and as such it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, velocity is given by the equation;

[tex]Velocity = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;

[tex]Speed = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

1. Speed: Jackson ran 5k in 24 minutes.

2. Velocity: A storm is travelling 25 km/hour eastward.

3. Speed: John walked 420 m in 17.5 seconds.

4. Velocity: Zart moved the desk 34 cm to the left.

5. Speed: A hurricane travels 360 km in 15 hours.

6. Speed: Meredith runs 400 meters in 50 seconds.

A planet has two moons, Moon and Moon , that orbit at different distances from the planet’s center, as shown.

the planet’s radius and mass.

3. The masses of the two moons are determined to be for Moon and for Moon . It is observed that
the distance between Moon and the planet is two times that of the distance between Moon and the
planet. How does force exerted from the planet on Moon compare to the force exerted from the planet on
Moon ?

The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon is two times larger than the gravitational force
exerted from the planet on Moon .
B
The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon is eight times larger than the gravitational force
exerted from the planet on Moon .
C
The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon is two times smaller than the gravitational force
exerted from the planet on Moon .
D
The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon is eight times smaller than the gravitational force
exerted from the planet on Moon .

Answers

Gravitational force increases as the mass increases and decreases as the distance between the bodies is increased.

The correct option is; The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon A is eight times larger than the gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon B.

Reasons:

The given parameters are;

The moons of the planet = Moon A and Moon B

Mass of Moon A = 2·M

Mass of moon B = M

The distance between Moon B and the planet = 2 × The distance between Moon A and the planet

Required:

Comparison (compare) of the force exerted from the planet on Moon A and Moon B.

Solution:

The force, F, exerted from the planet is the gravitational force which is given by Newton's Law of Gravitation as follows;

[tex]\displaystyle F = \mathbf{G \cdot \frac{M_{planet} \times M}{R^2}}[/tex]

Where;

G = Universal gravitational constant

[tex]M_{planet}[/tex] = Mass of the planet

M = Mass of the Moon

R = The distance from the planet to the Moon

For Moon A, we have;

Mass = 2·M

Distance = R

Which gives;

[tex]\displaystyle F_A = G \cdot \frac{M_{planet} \times 2\cdot M}{R^2} = 2\cdotG \cdot \frac{M_{planet} \times M}{R^2} = \mathbf{2 \cdot F}[/tex]

With Moon B, we have;

Mass = M

Distance = 2·R

Therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle F_B = G \cdot \frac{M_{planet} \times M}{(2 \cdot R)^2} = G \cdot \frac{M_{planet} \times M}{4 \cdot R^2} = \frac{1}{4} \cdot G \cdot \frac{M_{planet} \times M}{R^2} = \mathbf{\frac{1}{4} \cdot F}[/tex]

Which gives;

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{F_A}{F_B} = \frac{2 \cdot F}{\frac{1}{4} \cdot F } =2 \times \frac{4}{1} = \mathbf{8}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{F_A}{F_B} = 8[/tex]

[tex]F_A = \mathbf{8 \times F_B}[/tex]

The force from the planet on Moon A, [tex]F_A[/tex], is 8 times the force from the planet on Moon B.

Therefore, whereby option B is;

The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon A is eight times larger than the gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon B.

The correct option is option B

10-kg box is sliding across an ice rink at 10 m/s . A skater exerts a constant force of 10 N against it. How long will it take for the box to come to a complete stop?

Answers

Answer:

Time, t = 10 seconds

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 10kg

Force = 10N

Final velocity = 10m/s

Initial velocity = 0m/s

To find the time;

First of all, we would find the acceleration of the box.

Force = mass * acceleration

10 = 10 * acceleration

Acceleration = 10/10 = 1m/s²

Now, we can find the time by using the first equation of motion;

V = U + at

10 = 0 + 1t

10 = t

Time, t = 10 seconds

Therefore, it will take 10 seconds for the box to come to a complete stop.
