Newtons first law of motion is also known as the law of inertia
<span>An observation of the red shift of galaxies suggests that the universe is expanding. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or option "a". I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has actually come to your help.</span>
Answer:
(a) - 42700 m/s
(b) - 6.8 x 10^-4 m/s^2
Explanation:
initial velocity of star, u = 20.7 km/s
Final velocity of star, v = - 22 km/s
time, t = 1.99 years
Convert velocities into m/s and time into second
So, u = 20700 m / s
v = - 22000 m/s
t = 1.99 x 365.25 x 24 x 3600 = 62799624 second
(a) Change in planet's velocity = final velocity - initial velocity
= - 22000 - 20700 = - 42700 m/s
(b) Accelerate is defined as the rate of change of velocity.
Acceleration = change in velocity / time
= ( - 42700 ) / (62799624) = - 6.8 x 10^-4 m/s^2
Explanation :
Absorption coefficient of a material determines how much sound is absorbed by the material.
To build a soundproof room, Heavy curtains and carpet can be used. They reduce reverberation.
Reverberation means an echoing sound which persists for some time. For example, when we bang on a huge piece of metal, we hear the reverberation even after we stop banging.
Hence, option (A) and (D) are correct.
