Answer:
c)The gases have the same average kinetic energy.
Explanation:
As we know that the kinetic energy of gas is given as
here we know that
so we have
now we have
now mean kinetic energy per molecule is given as
so this is independent of the mass of the gas
so average kinetic energy will remain same for both the gas molecules
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that, current generated from lightning range from
10⁴ A < I < 10^5 A
We know that,
The magnetic force is given as
F = iLB
The magnetic field on the earth surface is
B = 10^-5 T
So, let assume the worst case of a 15m flag pole
L = 15m
Then,
F = iLB
F = 10^5 × 10 × 10^-5
F = 15 N
Therefore, 15N is fairly strong so it will come to the material that was use for the material of the flag pole.
Therefore, it is possible that the student is right depending on the material of the flag pole.
Answer:
light waves can be converted to electricity through <em>a solar cell</em>
Explanation:
Answer:
D. The momentum of Car B is three times as great in magnitude as that of car A.
Explanation:
I majored in Physics
There's a very subtle thing going on here, one that could blow your mind.
Wherever we look in the universe, no matter what direction we look,
we see the light from distant galaxies arriving at our telescopes with
longer wavelengths than the light SHOULD have.
The only way we know of right now that can cause light waves to get
longer after they leave the source is motion of the source away from
the observer. The lengthening of the waves on account of that motion
is called the Doppler effect. (The answer to the question is choice-c.)
But that may not be the only way that light waves can get stretched. It's
the only way we know of so far, and so we say that the distant galaxies
are all moving away from us.
From that, we say the whole universe is expanding, and that right there is
one of the strongest observations that we explain with the Big Bang theory
of creation.
Now: If ... say tomorrow ... a competent Physicist discovers another way
for light waves to get stretched after they leave the source, then the whole
"expanding universe" idea is out the window, and probably the Big Bang
theory along with it !
Now that our mind has been blown, come back down to Earth with me,
and I'll give you something else to think about:
It's true that when we look at distant galaxies, we do see their light
arriving in our telescopes with longer wavelengths than it should have.
And then we use the Doppler effect to calculate how fast that galaxy
is moving away from us. That's all true. Astronomers are doing it
every day. I mean every night.
So here's the question for you to think about ... maybe even READ about:
When the light from a distant galaxy pours into our telescope, and we
look at it, and we measure its wavelength, and we find that the wavelength
is longer than it should be ... how do we know what it should be ? ? ?
