Answer:

The answer is actually absorption of light in a star’s atmosphere

Explanation:

I chose "dispersion of light as it enters Earth's atmosphere" in a test and got it wrong. It showed the correct answer to be absorption of light in a star’s atmosphere.

The correct option is DISPERSION OF LIGHT AS IT ENTERS EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE. Scientists use astronomical spectrometer to analyse the composition of the sun and the stars. Astronomical spectrometer works on the basis of dispersion of light as it enters the earth's atmosphere.

A toy car is moving horizontally and started its motion from a position of X1 = 2 cm, then after 3 seconds it reached at a posit
ahrayia [7]

Since distance is a scalar and not a vector, the total distance traveled is the sum of all the distances covered throughout the journey.

In Physics, we have two categories of quantities;

  • Vectors
  • Scalars

The difference between vectors and scalars is that vectors has direction but scalars do not have direction. Both quantities posses magnitude.

The total distance covered can be obtained algebraically since distance is a scalar.

Hence, total distance covered = 2 cm + 6cm + 5 cm = 13 cm

Four waves are described by the following equations, where distances are measured in meters and times in seconds. I. y = 0.12 co
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Wave 1 and Wave 2.      

Explanation:

We know that the general equation of a wave is given by :

y=A\ sin(kx-\omega t)    

or

y=A\ cos(kx-\omega t)    

We know that the speed of a wave is given by :

v=\dfrac{\omega}{k}

Where

\omega = angular speed

k = propagation constant

Wave 1.

y=0.12\ cos(3x-21t)

v_1=\dfrac{21}{3}=7\ m/s

Wave 2.

y=0.15\ cos(6x+42t)

v_2=\dfrac{42}{6}=7\ m/s

Wave 3.

y=0.13\ cos(6x+21t)

v_3=\dfrac{21}{6}=3.5\ m/s

Wave 4.

y=-0.23\ cos(3x-42t)

v_1=\dfrac{42}{3}=14\ m/s

It is clear that wave 1 and 2 have the same speed i.e. 7 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
