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.

Burka [1]

Answers:

a) 5400000 J

b) 45.92 m

Explanation:

a) The kinetic energy K of an object is given by:

K=\frac{1}{2}mV^{2}

Where:

m=12000 kg is the mass of the train

V=30 m/s is the speed of the train

Solving the equation:

K=\frac{1}{2}(12000 kg)(30 m/s)^{2}

K=5400000 J This is the train's kinetic energy at its top speed

b) Now, according to the Conservation of Energy Law, the total initial energy is equal to the total final energy:

E_{i}=E_{f}

K_{i}+P_{i}=K_{f}+P_{f}

Where:

K_{i}=5400000 J is the train's initial kinetic energy

P_{i}=0 J is the train's initial potential energy

K_{f}=0 J is the train's final kinetic energy

P_{f}=mgh is the train's final potential energy, where g=9.8 m/s^{2} is the acceleration due gravity and h is the height.

Rewriting the equation with the given values:

5400000 J=(12000 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})h

Finding h:

h=45.918 m \approx 45.92 m

Radda [10]

Answer:

Neither technician

Explanation:

Neither technician is correct.

two bulbs are connected in series one bulb burn out  

If one bulb in the series burns out then the circuit will break.

In a series circuit same current passes each resistor.

so, both the technician is incorrect bulb B will not work and current will not increase in the other bulb.

Determine the energy in joules of a photon whose frequency is 3.55 x10^17 hz
asambeis [7]
By using the Plancks-Einstein equation, we can find the energy;
E = hf
where h is the plancks constant = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴
f = frequency = 3.55 x 10¹⁷hz
E = (6.63 x 10⁻³⁴) x (3.55 x 10¹⁷)
E = 2.354 x 10⁻¹⁶J
