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.

A person is initially driving a car east down a straight road. the magnitude of the instantaneous acceleration is decreasing wit

Alexxandr [17]

By definition, acceleration is the change in velocity per change of time. As time passes by, the time increases in value. So, when the acceleration is decreasing while the time is increasing, then that means that the change of velocity is also decreasing with time. So, optimally, the initial velocity and the velocity at any time are very relatively close to each other,

You need to put a metal rod

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

-- Put the rod into the freezer for a while. As it cools,
it contracts (gets smaller) slightly.

-- Put the cylinder into hot hot water for a while. As it heats,
it expands (gets bigger) slightly.

-- Bring the rod and the cylinder togther quickly, before the
rod has a chance to warm up or the cylinder has a chance
to cool off.

-- I bet it'll fit now.

-- But be careful . . . get the rod exactly where you want it as fast
as you can. Once both pieces come back to the same temperature,
and the rod expands a little and the cylinder contracts a little, the fit
will be so tight that you'll probably never get them apart again, or even
move the rod.

A string is tied between two posts separated by 2.4 m. When the string is driven by an oscillator at frequency 567 Hz, 5 points

Alex787 [66]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Length (l) = 2.4 m

Frequency (f) = 567 Hz

Formula to calculate the speed of a transverse wave is as follows.

f = $\frac{5}{2l} \times v$

Putting the gicven values into the above formula as follows.

f = $\frac{5}{2l} \times v$

567 Hz = $\frac{5}{2 \times 2.4 m} \times v$

v = 544.32 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that the speed (in m/s) of a transverse wave on this string is 544.32 m/s.

Select the correct location on the image.<br> Identify the magnetic north pole of Earth’s magnet.

OverLord2011 [107]

The magnetic north pole of the earth's magnet is in the geographic south pole.

There are two magnetic and geographic poles each, north and south
The two geographic poles are the locations where the earth's axis of rotation passes through which is imaginary
The magnetic north and south poles are not the same as the geographic north and south poles
In a compass, the needle points to the magnetic north pole
By convention, the magnetic north pole corresponds to the geographic south pole
The magnetic south pole corresponds to the geographic north pole
The magnetic field lines of a magnet start from the magnetic north pole and end at the magnetic south pole

The magnetic north pole of the earth's magnet is the geographic south pole.
