Is the star moving toward earth, away from earth, or is there not enough information provided to determine its motion?

If a star is moving towards Earth, shift towards the blue end of the spectrum, this is called blue shift. If the star is moving away from Earth the light from that star will be red and is called red shift .

The faster a star moves towards the earth, the more its light is shifted to higher frequencies. In contrast, if a star is moving away from the earth, its light is shifted to lower frequencies on the color spectrum

if a star is moving towards Earth, it appears to emit light that is shorter in wavelength compared to a source of light that isn't moving. Because shorter wavelengths correspond to a shift towards the blue end of the spectrum, this is called blue shift.

If the star is moving away from Earth, its light will lose energy to reach Earth, therefore the light from that star will be red and is called red shift

What are the divisions within a shell called
blsea [12.9K]
The divisions within an atom's shell are called subshells. This means that each shell consists of several subshells that are made up of orbitals. Each orbital consists of 1 or 2 electrons. The outermost shell of an atom is what we call the valence electrons, and they are what participate in chemical bonding.

An electric lamp consumes 60W at 220 volts. How many dry cells of 1.5 V and internal resistance 1 Ohm are required to glow the l
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

1. Number of dry cells of 1.5 V required is 40.

2. Number of internal resistance of 1 ohm required is 807

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the resistance. This can be obtained as follow:

Power (P) = 60 W

Voltage (V) = 220 V

Resistance (R) =?

P = V²/R

60 = 220² / R

Cross multiply

60 × R = 220²

60 × R = 48400

Divide both side by 60

R = 48400 / 60

R ≈ 807 Ohm

1. Determination of the number of dry cells of 1.5 V required.

Voltage (V) = 220

Dry Cells = 1.5 V

Number of dry cells (n) =?

n = Voltage / Dry cells

n = 60 / 1.5

n = 40

2. Determination of the number of internal resistance of 1 ohm required.

Resistance (R) = 807 Ohm

Internal resistance (r) = 1 ohm

Number of internal resistance (n) =?

n = R/r

n = 807 / 1

n = 807

SUMMARY:

1. Number of dry cells of 1.5 V required is 40.

2. Number of internal resistance of 1 ohm required is 807

Which statement defines an ore? Rock broken down to become part of the topsoil. Rock dug out from the earth to use in constructi
Anika [276]

Rock dug out from the deep inside earth and refined.

Explanation:

Ores are usually rocks dug out from deep within the earth and refined.

An ore is an aggregate of metalliferous minerals with gangue that can be won at profit under current economic conditions.

Ores are rocks and rocks can be ores if they contain viable economic minerals.

They are usually naturally formed and they contain different minerals.

For example cassiterite is a known ore of tin.

A particle has 37.5 J of kinetic energy and 12.5 J of gravitational potential energy at one point during its fall from a tree to
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: 50J

Explanation:

Mechanical energy follows the same principles of kinetic energy and potential energy, it is conserved. So Ei = Ef.

Mechanical energy is the sum of ALL energy's. There is no friction, so its just kinetic plus potential.

37.5 + 12.5 = 50J

Since the particle has not touched the ground, it has not transferred any energy to the ground yet, therefore the mechanical energy must still be 50J; mostly in kinetic energy with a very small amount of potential because of the low height relative to the ground.
