D. the value of the star's apparent magnitude increases
ExtremeBDS [4]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Apparent magnitude of a star is the brightness of the star observed from the Earth at its actual position. The value extends in both positive and negative direction. Increasing value of apparent magnitude in positive direction means that the brightness is decreasing. Absolute magnitude is the apparent magnitude of the star when the star is at 10 parsecs distance away from earth.

It is given that a star is 500 light-years away from earth moved to be 600 light years away. The value of absolute magnitude of the star does not changes. But the value of apparent magnitude changes with the distance. It would increase as the distance would increase. The star would appear less bright.

Assignment: Can you identify various forces and instances in which electrostatic and magnetic forces occur​
serg [7]

Answer:

Magnetic force, attraction or repulsion that arises between electrically charged particles because of their motion. It is the basic force responsible for such effects as the action of electric motors and the attraction of magnets for iron. Electric forces exist among stationary electric charges; both electric and magnetic forces exist among moving electric charges. The magnetic force between two moving charges may be described as the effect exerted upon either charge by a magnetic field created by the other.

kondor19780726 [428]
I believe it goes as the following::

1) Waves transfer energy without moving particles

2) The two types of waves are longitudinal and transverse waves OR The two types of waves are mechanical and electromagnetic waves. Both are applicable and should be correct!

A very narrow beam of white light is incident at 40.80° onto the top surface of a rectangular block of flint glass 11.6 cm thick
DerKrebs [107]
Dispersion angle = 0.3875 degrees. 
Width at bottom of block = 0.09297 cm 
Thickness of rainbow = 0.07038 cm 
 Snell's law provides the formula that describes the refraction of light. It is:
 n1*sin(θ1) = n2*sin(θ2)
 where
 n1, n2 = indexes of refraction for the different mediums
 Î¸1, θ2 = angle of incident rays as measured from the normal to the surface. 
 Solving for θ2, we get
 n1*sin(θ1) = n2*sin(θ2)
 n1*sin(θ1)/n2 = sin(θ2)
 asin(n1*sin(θ1)/n2) = θ2 
 The index of refraction for air is 1.00029, So let's first calculate the angles of the red and violet rays.
 Red:
 asin(n1*sin(θ1)/n2) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*sin(40.80)/1.641) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*0.653420604/1.641) = θ2
 asin(0.398299876) = θ2
 23.47193844 = θ2 
 Violet:
 asin(n1*sin(θ1)/n2) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*sin(40.80)/1.667) = θ2
 asin(1.00029*0.653420604/1.667) = θ2
 asin(0.39208764) = θ2
 23.08446098 = θ2 
 So the dispersion angle is:
 23.47193844 - 23.08446098 = 0.38747746 degrees. 
 Now to determine the width of the beam at the bottom of the glass block, we need to calculate the difference in the length of the opposite side of two right triangles. Both triangles will have a height of 11.6 cm and one of them will have an angle of 23.47193844 degrees, while the other will have an angle of 23.08446098 degrees. The idea trig function to use will be tangent, where
 tan(θ) = X/11.6
 11.6*tan(θ) = X
 So for Red:
 11.6*tan(θ) = X
 11.6*tan(23.47193844) = X
 11.6*0.434230136 = X
 5.037069579 = X 
 And violet:
 11.6*tan(θ) = X
 11.6*tan(23.08446098) = X
 11.6*0.426215635 = X
 4.944101361 = X 
 So the width as measured from the bottom of the block is: 5.037069579 cm - 4.944101361 cm = 0.092968218 cm 
 The actual width of the beam after it exits the flint glass block will be thinner. The beam will exit at an angle of 40.80 degrees and we need to calculate the length of the sides of a 40.80/49.20/90 right triangle. If you draw the beams, you'll realize that:
 cos(θ) = X/0.092968218
 0.092968218*cos(θ) = X 
 0.092968218*cos(40.80) = X
 0.092968218*0.756995056 = X
 0.070376481 = X 
 So the distance between the red and violet rays is 0.07038 cm.
