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).

Charge q is accelerated starting from rest up to speed v through the potential difference V. What speed will charge q have after
adoni [48]

Answer: v = 1.19 * 10^{6} m/s

Explanation: q = magnitude of electronic charge = 1.609 * 10^{-19} c

mass of an electronic charge = 9.10 * 10^{-31} kg

V= potential difference = 4V

v = velocity of electron

by using the work- energy theorem which states that the kinetic energy of the the electron must equal the work done use in accelerating the electron.

kinetic energy = \frac{mv^{2} }{2},  potential energy = qV

hence, \frac{mv^{2} }{2} = qV

\frac{9.10 *10^{-31} * v^{2}  }{2} = 1.609 * 10^{-16} * 4\\\\\\\\9.10*10^{-31}  * v^{2} = 2 * 1.609 *10^{-16} * 4\\\\\\9.10 *10^{-31} * v^{2} = 1.287 *10^{-15} \\\\v^{2} = \frac{1.287 *10^{-15} }{9.10 *10^{31} } \\\\v^{2} = 1.414*10^{15} \\\\v = \sqrt{1.414*10^{15} } \\\\v = 1.19 * 10^{6} m/s
