We have seen that starlight passing through the interstellar medium is dimmed and reddened. Look at the photo of a sunset on Ear

th. The Sun’s light also appears reddish at sunset. Given your understanding of the reddening of starlight, why do you think sunsets appear red?

Answer:

Explanation:

Reddening of sun's rays at sunset and sunrise is due to scattering of light . The white light consisting of seven colours coming from the sun are scattered in different directions when they fall on the air particles present in atmosphere . Red coloured light scatters least and it travels straight forward to the viewer on the earth . On the other hand other colours scatter most and therefore they go out of area of vision for the viewer on the earth . Since only red colour reaches the eye of the viewer , sun's ray appear red . This happens during sunrise and sunset . It is so because during this period , sun rays travel far greater distance through  atmosphere , so scattering is most pronounced .

Illustrate a body of mass 5.0kg pulled by horizontal force F . if the body accelerates 2.0ms² and experience a frictional force
Natasha2012 [34]

Explanation:

a. Net force is mass times acceleration (Newton's second law).

∑F = ma

∑F = (5.0 kg) (2.0 m/s²)

∑F = 10 N

b. The net force is the sum of the individual forces.

10 N = F − 5 N

F = 15 N

c. Friction force here is mgμ.

mgμ = 5 N

(5.0 kg) (10 m/s) μ = 5 N

μ = 0.1

If your heart is beating at 76. 0 beats per minute, what is the frequency of your heart's oscillations in hertz?
nikitadnepr [17]

If the heart is beating at 76. 0 beats per minute, the Frequency of heart's oscillations in hertz is 1.25 Hertz.

The Frequency is defined as the number of oscillations completed in 1s.

Our heart beats continuously giving rise to the frequency of the heart.

Measuring frequency would be possible if we measure the time in seconds.

75 beats per minute means that 75 beats occur in 60s.

Frequency = Number of beats / Total time taken

Frequency = 75 / 60

Frequency = 1.25 Hz

Hence, number of beats per second is 1.25 Beats.

Beats per second or Cycles per second is same as the frequency of oscillation called as Hertz (Hz)

Hence, frequency of the heart oscillation is 1.25 Hertz (Hz).
