2.3275862×10¹²km/s fast is sirius moving in km/s.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

Hydrogen has a spectral line at = 116nm=116×10⁻⁹m

Line is observed at = 107 nm=107×10⁻⁹m

Now, from the Hubble's law

V=(\Delta \lambda / \lambda)×C

Where,

v is the velocity

Δλ = Change in wavelength = 116 - 107= 9nm=9×10⁻⁹m

λ = Actual wavelength=116nm=116×10⁻⁹m

C is the speed of the light=3×10⁸m/s

on substituting the respective values, we get

V=(9/116)×3×10⁸=23275862.069×10⁵m/s

V=2.3275862×10¹²km/s.

<h3>What is the wavelength?</h3>

A waveform signal's wavelength, which is the distance between two identical locations (adjacent crests) in the succeeding cycles, determines whether it is sent through space or via a wire. Typically, in wireless systems, this length is specified in meters (m), centimeters (cm), or millimeters (mm).

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image  

Answer:

a

   The tension is  T =  48.255 \ N

b

   The time taken is  t =  0.226 \ s

c

   The position for maximum velocity is  

        S = 0  

d

     The maximum velocity is  V_{max} =0.384 \ m/s

Explanation:

The free body for this question is shown on the second uploaded image

From the question we are told that

    The mass of the bob  is m_b  =  5 \ kg

     The angle is  \theta = 10^o

     The length of the string is  L =  0.5 \ m

The tension on the string is mathematically represented as

              T  = mg cos \theta

substituting values

             T =  5 * 9.8 cos(10)

             T =  48.255 \ N

The motion of the bob is mathematically represented as

             S =  A sin (w t  + \frac{\pi }{2} )

     =>   S =  A sin (wt)

Where  w is the angular speed

and  \frac{\pi}{2} is the phase change

At initial position S =  0

   So   wt  = cos^{-1} (0)

          wt  = 1

Generally w can be mathematically represented as

          w =  \frac{2 \pi }{T}

Where T is the period of oscillation which i mathematically represented as

          T  =  2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }

So  

      t   = \frac{1}{w}

       t   = \frac{T}{2 \pi}

       t =  \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }

substituting values

       t =  \sqrt{\frac{0.5}{9.8} }

       t =  0.226 \ s

Looking at the equation

         wt =  1

We see that maximum velocity of the bob will be at  S = 0  

i. e     w =  \frac{1}{t}

The maximum velocity is mathematically represented as

          V_{max}   =  w A

Where A is the amplitude which is mathematically represented as

         A = L sin \theta

So

      V_{max} = \frac{2 \pi }{T }  L sin \theta

      V_{max} = \frac{2 \pi }{2 \pi } \sqrt{\frac{g}{L} }   L sin \theta  Recall   T  =  2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }

     V_{max} = \sqrt{gL} sin \theta

substituting values        

       V_{max} = \sqrt{9.8 * 0.5 } sin (10)

       V_{max} =0.384 \ m/s

PART ONE
stira [4]

Answer:

3.64×10⁸ m

3.34×10⁻³ m/s²

Explanation:

Let's define some variables:

M₁ = mass of the Earth

r₁ = r = distance from the Earth's center

M₂ = mass of the moon

r₂ = d − r = distance from the moon's center

d = distance between the Earth and the moon

When the gravitational fields become equal:

GM₁m / r₁² = GM₂m / r₂²

M₁ / r₁² = M₂ / r₂²

M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d − r)²

M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d² − 2dr + r²)

M₁ (d² − 2dr + r²) = M₂ r²

M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + M₁ r² = M₂ r²

M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + (M₁ − M₂) r² = 0

d² − 2d r + (1 − M₂/M₁) r² = 0

Solving with quadratic formula:

r = [ 2d ± √(4d² − 4 (1 − M₂/M₁) d²) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − (1 − M₂/M₁)) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − 1 + M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

r = [ 2d ± 2d√(M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)

When we plug in the values, we get:

r = 3.64×10⁸ m

If the moon wasn't there, the acceleration due to Earth's gravity would be:

g = GM / r²

g = (6.672×10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²) (5.98×10²⁴ kg) / (3.64×10⁸ m)²

g = 3.34×10⁻³ m/s²

ECONOMICS GRADE 10 CASE STUDY TOPIC: South African growth and development: Mining and industry Manufacturing and services.​
bearhunter [10]

The correct answe is South Africa - Economic Growth and Development:

After the formal end of the previous apartheid system two decades ago, South Africa can now boast having one of the richest economies in Africa and a well-functioning democracy. It is the largest economy in Africa, but it also has deeply ingrained structural issues that limit its ability to expand and flourish.

One of the largest economies on the African continent is that of South Africa. However, despite a period of rapid development from 2003 to 2007, its real GDP average yearly growth rate between 2001 and 2010 has been very weak and unquestionably significantly below the African average. A number of African nations have had substantially faster growth rates, which has improved a number of development-related indices.

By the standards of the recent growth records of several Euro Zone nations, South Africa's development is hardly sluggish! One crucial aspect of the economy is that South Africa has achieved relatively modest progress in meeting a number of important development targets and some of the Millennium Development Goals, but her economy does not appear to have achieved the "take-off" required to kick start significant development progress, especially against the backdrop of her deep social problems.
