The following set of prompts is astronomy related.

1) It is to be noted that the observations between 1912 and 1917  revealed that the earth was millions of years old and cooled down from a once molten state.

2) Lemaitres argued that the physical world began as a single particle—the "primeval atom," as he termed it—that disintegrated in an explosion, resulting in space and time and the cosmos' ongoing expansion.

3) It is TRUE to state that between 1912 and 1922, astronomer Vesto Slipher at the Lowell Observatory in Arizona uncovered that the spectra of light from many of these celestial entities were systematically shifted to longer wavelengths, or redshifted. The objects referenced here were galaxies in the distance.

4)  The important discovery that Hubble and his assistant discovered about galaxies was that some nebulae were galaxies <u>expanding </u>beyond our own galaxies.

5) It means that the universe has been growing or expanding ever since the Big Bang.

6) By observing very distant objects, scientists can tell whether or not the universe is moving, growing, or shrinking. This concept is referred to as redshift.

7) In 1965, the American Radio Astronomers Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson inadvertently discovered Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation.

8) According to all recent observations and studies, the Universe has no center.

9) It is estimated the Universe is 13.8 Billion Years old.

10) According to the Big Bang Theory, the whole Universe existed within a bubble millions of times smaller than the size of a pinhead. It was hotter and denser than we could have imagined. Then it burst into flames. According to this belief, this explosion produced life as we know it. It should be highlighted that, while the hypothesis has been utilized to explain numerous scientific facts, it is still an unproven theory.

<h3>When did the study of astronomy begin?</h3>

The Assyro-Babylonians made the earliest written records of regular astronomical observations approximately 1000 BCE. Astronomers had built an extensive knowledge of the celestial bodies and documented their periodic movements in Mesopotamia, which is located in the southern section of modern-day Iraq.

Astronomy is the oldest natural science, dating back to antiquity, with roots in prehistoric religious, mythical, cosmological, calendrical, and astrological beliefs and practices: vestiges of these can still be found in astrology, a discipline long intertwined with public and governmental astronomy.

An 1800-W toaster, a 1400-W electric frying pan, and a 75-W lamp are plugged into the same outlet in a 15-A, 120-V circuit. The
Mila [183]

Answer:

a) Current drawn by the toaster = 15A

Current drawn by the electric frying pan = 11.67A

Current drawn by the lamp = 0.625A

b) This combination will blow the 15A fuse as the total current requirement for this setup exceeds the 15A rating of the fuse.

Explanation:

a) For parallel connection, there exists, the same voltage and different currents across all the devices.

Voltage cross each of the 3 devices = outlet voltage of 120V

From their respective power rating, current drawn by each device will be calculated.

P = IV

For the toaster, P = 1800 W, V = 120V

I = 1800/120 = 15A

For the electric frying pan, P = 1400 W, V = 120 V

I = 1400/120 = 11.67 A

For the lamp, P = 75 W, V = 120V

I = 75/120 = 0.625 A

b) Total current in a parallel connection setup = Sum total of all the currents.

Total current drawn by all 3 devices = 15 + 11.67 + 0.625 = 27.295A = 27.3 A

This total current requirement surpasses the 15A current rating of the fuse, therefore, this combination will blow the fuse.

Hope this Helps!!!

A fire hose nozzle has a diameter of 1.125 in. According to some fire codes, the nozzle must be capable of delivering at least 2
Furkat [3]

Answer:

P_{1} = 403,708\,kPa\,(58.553\,psi)

Explanation:

Let assume that changes in gravitational potential energy can be neglected. The fire hose nozzle is modelled by the Bernoulli's Principle:

\frac{P_{1}}{\rho\cdot g} = \frac{P_{2}}{\rho \cdot g} + \frac{v^{2}}{2\cdot g}

The initial pressure is:

P_{1} = P_{2}+ \frac{1}{2}\cdot \rho v^{2}

The speed at outlet is:

v=\frac{\dot Q}{\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot D^{2}}

v=\frac{(250\,\frac{gal}{min} )\cdot (\frac{3.785\times 10^{-3}\,m^{3}}{1\,gal} )\cdot(\frac{1\,min}{60\,s} )}{\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot [(1.125\,in)\cdot(\frac{0.0254\,m}{1\,in} )]^{2} }

v\approx 24.592\,\frac{m}{s}\,(80.682\,\frac{ft}{s} )

The initial pressure is:

P_{1} = 101.325\times 10^{3}\,Pa+\frac{1}{2}\cdot (1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} )\cdot (24.592\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}

P_{1} = 403,708\,kPa\,(58.553\,psi)
