Why are some starburst galaxies much brighter in infrared than they are in visible light?

1 answer:

4 0

Some starburst galaxies are much brighter in infrared radiation than they are in visible light because the dust surrounding the galaxies warms up and emits infrared light after absorbing visible light. Because of this, starburst galaxies produce up to 98% of their total energy in the infrared, making them some of the brightest infrared objects in the cosmos.

A sort of radiant energy that we experience as heat but that is invisible to human eyes is infrared radiation (IR), often known as infrared light. The sun and fire are two of the most prominent sources of IR radiation, however all objects in the cosmos release some of it.

In the model of the hydrogen atom due to Niels Bohr, the electron moves around the proton at a speed of 3.3 × 106 m/s in a circl

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

$1.5048\times 10^{-23}\ Am^2$

Explanation:

q = Charge of proton = $1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

r = Radius of circle = $5.7\times 10^{-11}\ m$

v = Velocity of proton = $3.3\times 10^6\ m/s$

Magnetic moment is given by

$M=\frac{1}{2}qrv\\\Rightarrow M=\frac{1}{2}1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 5.7\times 10^{-11}\times 3.3\times 10^6\\\Rightarrow M=1.5048\times 10^{-23}\ Am^2$

The magnetic moment associated with this motion is $1.5048\times 10^{-23}\ Am^2$

Explain what nuclear fusion is in the role it plays in Stars. DO NOT LOOK UP ANSWERS

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Stars are powered by nuclear fusion in their cores, mostly converting hydrogen into helium. The production of new elements via nuclear reactions is called nucleosynthesis. A star's mass determines what other type of nucleosynthesis occurs in its core (or during explosive changes in its life cycle).

Q6) A speed skater moving to the left across frictionless ice at 8.0 m/s hits a 5.0-m-wide patch of rough ice. She slows steadil

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

-2.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity The S. I unit of acceleration is m/s²

Using the equation of motion,

v² = u² + 2as................... Equation 1

Where v = Final velocity, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance,

Given: v = 6.0 m/s, u = 8.0 m/s, s = 5.0 m.

Substituting into equation 1

6² = 8²+2(a)5

36 = 64 + 10a

10a = 36-64

10a = -28

10a/10 = -28/10

a = -2.8 m/s²

Note: a is negative because because the skater decelerate on the rough ice

Hence the magnitude of her acceleration is = -2.8 m/s²

Tanya [424]

Answer: I'm not sure what it needs to be rounded to, but I got 37.53501401 m/s

Explanation: The formula for speed is speed = distance/time. You plug in the distance (13.40) and the time (0.357), then divide 13.40 by 0.357

I hope this helps! :)
