An astronomer is observing a star which puzzles her. The lines in the star's spectrum indicates that the star is very hot and sh

ould therefore be blue. But the star looks reddish in photographs and in measurements of the continuous spectrum. What is one possible explanation of this puzzle

Answer:

the stars which are red in color are cool.

Explanation:

The stars which has reddish color are cool in nature while those stars which has white and blue in color are very hot in nature. The stars change its color when they becomes hotter , first the star color reddish when they are cool but with increasing temperature it changes the color from reddish to orange then yellow. After yellow it turns green and finally get blue color when the stars are very very hot.

You want to estimate the height of the Empire State Building. You start at its base and walk 15 m away. Then you approximate the
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

429 m

Explanation:

In this exercise you are suppose to simulate a right triangle, the catheti are the distance you walked and the height of the empire state building.

tan(88) = (height) /(distance you walked)

28.64 = height / 15

height = 429 m

A car of mass 2200 kg collides with a truck of mass 4500 kg, and just after the collision the car and truck slide along, stuck t
katovenus [111]

Answer:

37.7m/s: principle of conservation of momentum

Explanation:

The principle to make use of is the principle of conservation of momentum which States that the sum of momentum of bodies before collision is equal to the sum of momentum of bodies after collision. This bodies will move with the same velocity after collision.

Momentum = Mass × velocity

For car of mass 2200kg moving with velocity 33m/s:

Momentum of car before collision = 2200×33

= 72,600kgm/s

For the truck of mass 4500kg;

Momentum = 4500 ×(22-(-18)

= 4500×40

= 180000kgm/s

After collision, their momentum is:

Momentum after collision = (2200+4500)v

= 6700v

Using the principle above to get the common velocity v we have

72600+180000 = 6700v

252600 = 6700v

v = 252600/6700

v = 37.7m/s

Suppose you are planning a trip in which a spacecraft is to travel at a constant velocity for exactly six months, as measured by
QveST [7]

Answer:

0.999958c

Explanation:

Remember that the trip involves traveling for six months at a constant velocity thus returning home at same speed . The time interval of this trip will therefore be one year.

Accurate time interval to be measured by the clock on the spaceship Δt0 = 1.0 years

Time interval as advanced on earth observed from the spacecraft Δt = 110 years

the formula for time dilation is

Δt = Δt0 /√(1-v2/c2)

or v = c*√1-(Δt0/Δt)2

=c*√[1-(1year/110years)2]

= 0.999958c
