Why were quasars and active galaxies not initially recognized as being “special” in some way?

Answer:

In the past, astronomers look into the sky and the universe as a whole with an idea that it is a place where stars are born, transition through their life stages and ultimately die and this is because they couldnt differentiate between stars, quasars and active galaxies because with advanced equipment, they all look similar but as they technological ages arrived, they were able see that they are not the same.

A tree is 257 ft high. To the nearest tenth of a meter, how tall is it in meters? There are 3.28 ft in 1 m.
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Height of tree = 78.35 meters.

Explanation:

We have

          1 meter = 3.28 feet

That is

          1 ft = \frac{1}{3.28}=0.3048m

Here height of tree = 257 ft

Height of tree = 257 x 0.3048 = 78.35 m

Height of tree = 78.35 meters.

At a particular moment in time and space, we measure an electromagnetic wave's electric and magnetic fields. We find the electri
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

The direction of propagation is west.

Explanation:

We know that electromagnetic waves (EM-waves) are transverse in nature. EM-waves containing electric field and magnetic field both are perpendicular to the each other ( E ⊥ B ).

Transverse waves : the direction of propagation is perpendicular to the direction of amplitude which we call transverse waves. eg : light waves, water waves, gravitational waves etc.

Here, in our case the direction of electric field is pointing upward to the plan of the screen and the direction of magnetic field is pointing north

∴ E × B = k

Where E = direction of electric field, B = direction of magnetic field, k = direction of propagation at particular instant.

Above equation follows right hand rule. put your finger toward you (out of the screen) then curl to the north side then  the thumb will give you the direction of the wave propagation ( west side )

In our case west direction is the direction of wave propagation.

Two pro baseball players of the same height are testing how far they can throw. One players throws the ball at a 40.0 degrees an
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The  distance traveled by the ball before it lands in the other player's glove is 130.96 m.

Explanation:

Given;

angle of projection of the ball, θ = 40⁰

initial velocity of the ball, u = 36.1 m/s

The distance traveled by the ball before it lands in the other player's glove is the range of the projectile, calculated as follows;

R = \frac{u^2 sin(2\theta)}{g} \\\\R= \frac{36.1^2 \times sin(2\times 40)}{9.8} \\\\R = \frac{36.1^2 \times sin(80)}{9.8} \\\\R = 130.96 \ m

Therefore, the  distance traveled by the ball before it lands in the other player's glove is 130.96 m.
