Use the displacement law, peak wavelength = 0.0029/T =0.0029/30000 = 97nm

Answer : Wavelength is 97 nm.

Explanation :

It is given that,

The surface temperature of a star, T=30,000\ K

We have to find the wavelength where the peak radiation occurs.

We can find the wavelength using Wein's displacement law i.e.

\lambda=\dfrac{b}{T}

b is the Wein's constant b=2.88\times 10^{-3}m.K

So, \lambda=\dfrac{2.88\times 10^{-3}\ m.K}{30,000\ K}

\lambda=9.6\times 10^{-8}\ m

or \lambda=97\ nm

Hence, the correct option is (b).

A flatbed truck is carrying an 800-kg load of timber that is not tied down. The maximum friction force between the truck bed and
ycow [4]

Answer:

Acceleration a ≤ 3 m/s^2

the greatest acceleration that the truck can have without losing its load is 3 m/s^2

Explanation:

For the truck to accelerate without losing its load.

Acceleration force of truck must be less than or equal to the maximum friction force between the truck bed and the load.

Fa ≤ F(friction)

But;

Fa = mass × acceleration

Fa = ma

ma ≤ F(friction)

a ≤ (F(friction))/m ......1

Given;

Fa = mass × acceleration

Fa = ma

mass m = 800 kg

F(friction) = 2400 N

Substituting the given values into equation 1;

a ≤ F(friction)/m

a ≤ 2400N/800kg

a ≤ 3 m/s^2

the greatest acceleration that the truck can have without losing its load is 3 m/s^2
