1.  When an object is moving away from us, the light from the object is known as redshift, and when an object is moving towards us, the light from the object is known as blueshift.

2.  A wavelength increases in size, and its frequency, and energy decrease.

3.  The frequency of a wave increases, and its wavelength decreases.

Redshift is an important term for astronomers. The term can be taken literally. The wavelengths of light are stretched and perceived as shifting toward the red portion of the spectrum. The same thing happens to sound waves when the source moves relative to the observer.

As the wave frequency decreases, the wavelength increases as long as the wave velocity remains constant. If the wave speed stays the same as the frequency decreases, it means that fewer wave peaks or troughs pass through a given point in a given time period. The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency. Frequency and energy decrease with increasing wavelength.

C. copper

Explanation:

Copper is the best conductor of heat from the given options. Plastic, wood and cotton are all poor conductors other wise known as insulators.

Metals are typically good conductors of heat.

  • they generally do not have a high specific heat capacity which implies that they get heated easily.
  • a good conductor allows heat to flow fast and it simultaneously loses heat readily too.
  • copper is a good conductor, when heat its perfectly allows heat to pass through
  • when heat is removed, it loses it very fast.

Why the blood pressure in human body is greater at the feet than at the brain. please help!!!!​
maxonik [38]

Answer:

The pressure of liquid column is given by p=hpg, where h is depth, p is density and g is acceleration due to gravity.

Therefore, pressure of the liquid column increases with depth. The height of the blood column in a human body is more at feet than at the brain. Therefore, the blood pressure in humans is greater at the feet than the brain.

Crazy boy [7]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Normal Force, frictional force, kinematic equations of motion and Newton's second law.

From the kinematic equations of motion we know that the relationship of acceleration, velocity and distance is given by

v_f^2=v_i^2+2ax

Where,

v_f = Final velocity

v_i = Initial Velocity

a = Acceleration

x = Displacement

Acceleration can be expressed in terms of the drag coefficient by means of

F_f = \mu_k (mg)  \rightarrowFrictional Force

F = ma \rightarrow Force by Newton's second Law

Where,

m = mass

a= acceleration

\mu_k = Kinetic frictional coefficient

g = Gravity

Equating both equation we have that

F_f = F

\mu_k mg=ma

a = \mu_k g

Therefore,

v_f^2=v_i^2+2ax

0=v_i^2+2(\mu_k g)x

Re-arrange to find x,

x = \frac{v_i^2}{2(-\mu_k g)}

The distance traveled by the car depends on the coefficient of kinetic friction, acceleration due to gravity and initial velocity, therefore the three cars will stop at the same distance.

Question 7 Points 2
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The dynamo has a wheel that touches the back tyre. As the bicycle moves, the wheel turns a magnet inside a coil. This induces enough electricity to run the bicycle's lights. The faster the bicycle moves, the greater the induced voltage - and the brighter the lights.
