Alnilam is the brightest star
Absolute brightness is how bright the star actually is. Apparent brightness is how bright the star looks.
Factors that influence how bright a star looks is distance. The fact that Alnilam has the same apparent brightness of the other two stars even though it is farther away, means that it is brighter.
Answer:
180,000
Explanation:
Frequency is a quantity that is measured in Hertz [Hz] and it represents the number of rotations per second.
A motor with a frequency of 50 Hz will rotate 50 times per second.
Since we don't want to know how many times it rotates per second, but per hour. The first step is to find how many seconds there are in an hour and then multiply that amount by 50.
Seconds in an hour:
there are 60 seconds per minute, and 60 minutes per hour, thus there are
60*60 = <u>3,600 seconds in an hour</u>
We know that the motor will rotate 50 times per second so to find the number of rotations in 1 hour = 3,600 seconds we multiply:
50*3,600 = 180,000 rotations
Since everything in the circuit is in series .. .
-- The total resistance is (3 + 2) = 5 ohms.
-- The voltage across the 3-ohm resistor is 3/5 of the total voltage.
-- The voltage across the 2-ohm resistor is 2/5 of the total voltage.
(2/5) of (9 volts) = 18/5 = 3.6 volts .
Answer:
O The particles of the medium move more slowly and there are fewer chances to transfer energy.
Explanation:
Various media are made up of particles. These particles are in constant motion according to the kinetic theory of matter. Recall that temperature has been defined as the average kinetic energy of the particles in a medium. Hence, for any given medium, the velocity of particle motion increases or decreases linearly with temperature.
The speed of particles in any medium increases or decreases as the temperature of the medium increases or decreases as emphasised above. Hence, at low temperature, the velocity of waves set up by the motion of particles in a medium decreases and transfer the wave energy to neighbouring particles occurs more slowly than at high temperatures.
