Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is "physics ".

Explanation:

Physics is the branch of science that addresses the properties of crystalline and its interaction with the fundamental elements of the universe. It covers subjects ranging in quantum mechanics with extremely little ones with quantum mechanics to the whole cosmos. You must be constant whether you like it or not, thus everyone must learn physics, irrespective of whether they're in Uganda, and plenty of other countries should have physics to dare study.

From laboratory measurements, we know that a particular spectral line formed by hydrogen appears at a wavelength of 121.6 nanometers (nm). The spectrum of a particular star shows the same hydrogen line appearing at a wavelength of 121.8 nm. What is the receding speed of the star? c = 3x10^5 km/s

Answers

Answer:

[tex]v=-4.93\times 10^{5}~m/s[/tex] [negative sign denotes that it is moving away]

Explanation:

Actual wavelength of hydrogen spectral lines, [tex]\lambda=121.6~nm[/tex]

Apparent wavelength of hydrogen spectral lines from a star, [tex]\lambda'=121.8~nm[/tex]

So, shift in wavelength:

[tex]\Delta \lambda=\lambda'-\lambda[/tex]

[tex]\Delta \lambda=121.8-121.6[/tex]

[tex]\Delta \lambda=0.2~nm[/tex]

Using Doppler's shift:

[tex]\frac{\Delta \lambda}{\lambda} =-\frac{v}{c}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{0.2}{121.6} =-\frac{v}{3\times 10^8}[/tex]

[tex]v=-4.93\times 10^{5}~m/s[/tex] [negative sign denotes that it is moving away]

Imagine you find a venomous snake crawling up your leg after taking a drug that prevented sympathetic nervous system activation. What would the James-Lange theory predict about your experience?

Answers

Answer:

I would not feel fear because I haven't had the physiological arousal necessary to induce that emotional state.

Explanation:

The James-Lange theory is a theory of emotions. According to the James-Lange theory, the emotions of a human occur as a result of the physiological reactions to the surrounding events. His theory is one of the well known psychological theories of emotions.

In the context, I took a medicine that prevented the activation of my sympathetic nervous system and imagined a venomous snake that crawls up my leg, I did not feel any fear as I have not had the emotion or the phycological arousal that is necessary to induce the emotional state. It is according the theory of James-Lange.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]t = \frac{\pi}{8}, \frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{3\pi}{8}, \frac{3 \pi}{4}[/tex]

Explanation:

The equation of force is

F = 4 sin 4 t

Compare with the standard equation

f = A sin wt

where, w is the angular frequency and A is the amplitude.

Now

w = 4 rad/s

Let the time period is T.

the relation for the time period is

[tex]T = \frac{2\pi}{w}\\\\T = \frac{2 \pi}{4}\\\\T = \frac{\pi}{2}[/tex]

the time period is defined as the time taken by the body to complete one oscillation.

So, the velocity is zero at the extreme points where the object is at time, T/4 and its odd T/2, 3T/4, 3T/2, etc.

So, the velocity is zero at time

[tex]t = \frac{\pi}{8}, \frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{3\pi}{8}, \frac{3 \pi}{4}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

11.86°

Explanation:

Projectile motion is a form of motion where an object moves in parabolic path (trajectory). Projectile motion only occurs when there is one force applied at the beginning on the trajectory, after which the only interference is from gravity.

The range of an object experiencing projectile motion is given by:

R = u²sin(2θ) / g

where u is the initial velocity, θ is the angle with horizontal and g is the acceleration due to gravity

Given that R = 6.8 m, g = 10 m/s², u = 12 m/s.  

R = u²sin(2θ) / g

substituting:

6.8 = 13²sin(2θ) / 10

13²sin(2θ) = 68

sin(2θ) = 0.4024

2θ = sin⁻¹(0.4024)

2θ = 23.73

θ = 11.86°

A car travelling an unbanked curve of radius 200 ft notices a truckstopped on the road ahead. The driverimmediately applies brakes causing the speed of the carto decrease at the rate of 10 ft/s2. If at that instant, the stationary truckis 100 ft ahead (the distance is measured along the path) and the car is travelling at a speed of 40ft/s, whatis the magnitude of the relative velocity ofthe truck perceived by the driver of the car (i.e. from the moving frame of referenceof the car).

Answers

Answer:

 u = - 40 ft / s

Explanation:

The Galilean relation for the relative velocity is

         v ’= v + u

where u is the speed between the two reference frames, v is the speed of the fixed system and v 'the speed of the mobile system.

In this case the truck has a speed with respect to the ground (fixed system) 0 m / s (it is stopped), the car has a speed with respect to the ground of v = 40 ft / s,

        u = v'- v

         

        u = 0 - 40

        u = - 40 ft / s

the speed perceived by the car if the system is fixed on it is -40 ft / s

A car initially traveling at 60 km/h accelerates at a constant rate of 2.0 m/s2. How much time is required for the car to reach a speed of 90 km/h

Answers

Answer:

Time, t = 4.165 seconds.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 60 km/h

Final velocity = 90 km/h

Acceleration = 2 m/s²

Conversion:

60 km/hr to meters per seconds = 60*1000/3600 = 60000/3600 = 16.67 m/s

90 km/hr to meters per seconds = 90*1000/3600 = 90000/3600 = 25 m/s

To find the time, we would use the first equation of motion;

[tex] V = U + at[/tex]

Where;

V is the final velocity.

U is the initial velocity.

a is the acceleration.

t is the time measured in seconds.

Making time, t the subject of formula, we have;

[tex] t = \frac{V - U}{a}[/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] t = \frac{25 - 16.67}{2}[/tex]

[tex] t = \frac{8.33}{2}[/tex]

Time, t = 4.165 seconds.

If your weight is 588N on the earth, how far should you go from the centre of the earth so that your weight will be 300N? The radius of the earth is 6400km and the value of g on the earth surface is 9.8m/s2. please explain....​

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

You need something that relates distance to what the gravitational pull is. You can set up a complex sort of proportion. What you need is a number that is comparable to 9.81 or you can just use the Gravitational Force formula with a 4 tier fraction.

Givens

x = the additional distance toward outer space above the radius of the earth.

G is the gravitational constant.

m1 = the person's mass (which does not change no matter where you are).

m2 = the earth's mass

F1 = 588 N

F2 = 300 N

Formula

[tex]\frac{F1}{F2} = \frac{588 N}{300N}=\frac{\frac{Gm1*m2/}{6400^2} }{\frac{G*m1*m2}{(6400 + x)^2} }[/tex]

Solution

G*m1*m2 all cancel. So what you get looks like this.

[tex]\frac{588}{300} = \frac{(6400 + x)^2}{6400^2}[/tex]

Cross Multiply

588 * 6400^2 = 300*(6400+x)^2  Now all you need do is solve for x.

x will be in km.

588*40960000 = 300 * (40960000 + 12800x + x^2)

1.2288*10^10 + 3840000x + 300x^2  = 2.408448*10^10

300x^2 + 3840000x + 1.2288*10^10 = 2.408448 * 10^10  

Subtract 2.409448 * 10^10 from both sides.

300x^2 + 3840000x - 1,179648 * 10^10

Now use the quadratic formula

I'm guessing I should have converted this to meters because I'm getting ridiculous numbers. They are already large enough as you can see. The method is correct, even if the numbers are not.

kettles heated on stoves used to be made of copper. was this a good choice?

Answers

Yes, this was a good choice


Hope that helped,


Stay safe happy & healthy!

Kettles heated on stoves are used to be made up of copper. This is because copper is a good conductor of heat and electricity.

Why copper is used in making kettles?

Copper is used in making kettles. This is because copper is an excellent choice for a tea kettle as it is an excellent conductor of heat and electricity. This means that copper heats up quickly and evenly, making it ideal for the purpose of boiling water and preparing tea. Copper is also a durable material which can last for many years with proper care.

Copper kettles are polished from the outer surface as it is subject to corrosion that is caused by salts and sulfates. If the kettles are not cleaned completely, this corrosion, even as a slight film, will affect the taste of what is prepared in that copper kettle, giving a metallic sensation to taste.

where would the spaceprobe experience the strongest net (or total) gravitional force exerted on it by Earth and Mars

Answers

Answer:

r = 41.1 10⁹ m

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the equilibrium condition, that is, we look for the point where the forces are equal  

                  ∑ F = 0

                  F (Earth- probe) - F (Mars- probe) = 0

                  F (Earth- probe) = F (Mars- probe)

Let's use the equation of universal grace, let's measure the distance from the earth, to have a reference system

the distance from Earth to the probe is        R (Earth-probe) = r

the distance from Mars to the probe is        R (Mars -probe) = D - r

where D is the distance between Earth and Mars

                   

                 [tex]G \ \frac{m \ M_{Earth}}{r^2} = G \ \frac{m \ M_{Mars}}{(D-r)^2}[/tex]

                 M_earth (D-r)² = M_Mars r²

                 (D-r) = [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{M_{Mars}}{ M_{Earth}} }[/tex]    r

                  r ( [tex]1 + \sqrt{ \frac{M_{Mars}}{M_{Earth}} }[/tex]) = D

                  r = [tex]\frac{D}{ 1+ \sqrt{\frac{M_{Mars}}{ M_{Earth}} } }[/tex]

We look for the values ​​in tables

                  D = 54.6 10⁹ m (minimum)

                  M_earth = 5.98 10²⁴ kg

                  M_Marte = 6.42 10²³ kg = 0.642 10²⁴ kg

                   

let's calculate

                  r = 54.6 10⁹ / (1 + √(0.642/5.98)  )

                  r = 41.1 10⁹ m

a ball is launched from the ground with a horizontal speed of 30 m/s and a vertical speed of 30 m/s. what is the balls overall speed at the top of its trajectory?

Answers

Answer:

30m/ s

Explanation:

this is an example of a projectile, where the path traced by the ball will be a downward parabola.

one must know that the vertical velocity of an object having projectile motion is zero at the top of its trajectory and that the horizontal velocity remains constant throughout.

this means, at the top of the trajectory the ball's overall speed will be equal to its horizontal velocity.

and horizontal velocity is given 30 m/s

hence, overall speed of the ball = 30m/ s

Since the height from which the shell was fired is the same as the height at which it lands (on the ground, to be specific), we will use the range equation. That is the only time you CAN use the range equation (when the initial height and the final height are exactly the same). The range equation is:
