<span>A star's motion towards or away from us is detected by the wavelength of the spectral lines.
Because when a star is moving toward us or away from us, the apparent color does not change but there is a change in the wavelength of spectral lines, when the stars are moving towards us, the spectral lines are towards red end and when they are moving away from us the spectral lines are towards the blue end.</span>

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

5.3 m/s

Explanation:

First, find the time it takes for him to fall 7m.

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

0 = 7 + (0) t + ½ (-9.8) t²

0 = 7 − 4.9 t²

t ≈ 1.20 s

Now find the velocity he needs to travel 6.3m in that time.

x = x₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

6.3 = 0 + v₀ (1.20) + ½ (0) (1.20)²

v₀ ≈ 5.27 m/s

Rounded to two significant figures, the man must run with a speed of 5.3 m/s.

A 2,000 kg rocket is launched 12 km straight up at a constant acceleration into the sky at which point the rocket is travelling
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

797700000 J

Explanation:

From the question,

The work done by the rocket, is given as,

W = Ek+Ep............. Equation 1

Where Ek and Ep are the potential and the kinetic energy of the rocket respectively.

Ep = mgh............ Equation 2

Ek = 1/2mv²............. equation 3

Substitute equation 2 and equation 3 into equation 1

W = mgh+1/2mv².............. Equation 4

Where m = mass of the rocket, h = height, v = velocity of the rocket, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: m = 2000 kg, h = 12 km = 12000 m, v = 750 m/s, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 4

W = 2000(12000)(9.8)+1/2(2000)(750²)

W = 235200000+562500000

W = 797700000 J

What is the force felt by the electrons and the nuclei in the rod when the external field described in the problem introduction
fomenos

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the uploaded image

Answer:

The nuclei experience a force that will move it to the right of the conductor rod while the electrons experience a force that will move it to the left side of the conductor rod.

Explanation:

The force that act on the charges(both the positive and the negative charge ) is Mathematically expressed as

                      F = qE   => E = F/q

where F is the force, q is the charge and E is the electric field

we can see that the force is directly proportional to the electric field,so an increase in the electric field would increase the force.

we can also see that the electric field is given as force per unit charge and generally the direction of this field is taken to be the direction of the force it would exert on a positive test charge

Now from the question we are being told that the external electric field is the direction of the positive x axis

Hence this field would drive the positive charge i.e the nuclei to the right.

In order to further explain let consider this

Generally the electric field is always radially outward  originating from a positive point charge and radially in toward a negative point charge.

what  this means for this question, is that the positive point charge is on the left side of the electric field while the negative point charge is at the right side of the field.

According to Coulomb's law which states that unlike term attract while like terms repel, it means that  the electron would move to the left of the conductor rod   while the nuclei would move to the right side of the conductor rod.
