The radial velocity method preferentially detects large planets close to the central star

  • what is the Radial velocity:

The radial velocity technique is able to detect planets around low-mass stars, such as M-type (red dwarf) stars.

This is due to the fact that low mass stars are more affected by the gravitational tug of planets.

When a planet orbits around a star, the star wobbles a little.

From this, we can determine the mass of the planet and its distance from the star.

hence we can say that,

option D is correct.

The radial velocity method preferentially detects large planets close to the central star

Harman [31]

Let us consider body moves a distance S due to the force F.

Hence the work by the body W = FS

If the force is not along the direction of displacement,then the work by a body for travelling a distance S will be -

                                       W=[ Fcos\theta]*S  where    Fcos\theta is the component of the force along the direction of displacement.

                                  Hence\ W= FScos\theta

                                                        = F.S

As per the question the power P is given as -

                                                  P=\frac{W}{\delta t}

                                                         =\frac{F.S}{\delta t}

                                                         = F.\frac{S}{\delta t}

                                                         = \ F.V

Hence alternative definition of power P = F.V

two cars start at the same point and drive in a straight line for 5km. At the end of the drive their distances are the same but
Anna11 [10]

A 'displacement' always consists of a magnitude and a direction.  The two cars you just described have displacements with the same magnitude ... 5 km.  But if they didn't both drive in the same direction, then their displacements are different.

Remember:

-- 10 m/s² up and 10 m/s² down are different accelerations

-- 30 mph East and 30 mph West are the same speed but different velocity.

-- 5 km North and 5 km South are the same distance but different displacement.

sergey [27]
The just-world phenomenon is the belief that everything that happens to an individual is due to the individual's actions; in other words, all good and all bad that an individual encounters in the world is deserved by that person. This leads to a victim being blamed with the logic that "they had it coming" and someone who encounters good fortune being praised with "they earned it". Therefore, in this scenario, people will assume that Rose's inheritance is well deserved.<span />

You put a bottle of soft drink in a refrigerator and leave it until its temperature has dropped 12.0K .
Bingel [31]

Answer: a) - 437.8° F, b) - 261°c.

Explanation: a) the kelvin and Fahrenheit temperature scale are related by the formulae below.

5 (°F - 32) = 9 (k - 273)

Where °F = temperature in Fahrenheit and k = temperature in kelvin.

For question A, k = 12.0, by substituting to have the value for °F, we have

5(°F - 32) = 9 ( 12 - 273)

5(°F - 32) = 9(-261)

5(°F - 32) = - 2349

°F - 32 = - 2349/5

°F - 32 = - 469.8

°F = - 469.8 + 32

°F = - 437.8

Question B

The centigrade and kelvin scale are related by the formulae below

°c = k - 273

Where °c = temperature in centigrade and k = temperature in kelvin =12

°c = 12 - 273

°c = - 261

muminat

A toggle clamp is a device that you employ, often but not exclusively as part of a production process, to firmly place components or parts in place.

Explain about toggle clamp.

A toggle clamp's main characteristics are its rapid action and ability to be easily turned on and off by an operator. Toggle clamps also lock in place firmly. Because of this, toggle clamps are frequently employed in production lines where components need to be held firmly and quickly removed during routine manufacturing procedures.

Toggle clamps with standard or light action are often constructed from components of pressed steel that have been zinc-plated.

Depending on the setting in which you work, Stainless Steel is another alternative for Toggle Clamp production. Stainless steel toggle clamps are frequently used in regulated areas where hygiene is crucial, such as the food industry and the pharmaceutical business.
