Measuring the amount of deuterium in the universe allows us to set a limit on _________.

Physics
1 answer:
Mademuasel [1]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

the density of ordinary (baryonic) matter in the universe

Explanation:

 Deuterium detection is of interest because the amount of it may be related to the amount of dark matter in the universe, but precise measurements have been difficult to obtain. Due to the way in which deuterium was created in the Big Bang, an exact measurement of the amount of deuterium would allow scientists to set limits on the models of the great explosion.

Also, an exact measure of deuterium would be an indicator of the cosmic density of barions (ordinary matter), and that density of barions would indicate whether ordinary matter is dark and is found in regions such as black holes, gas clouds or brown dwarfs, or it is bright and can be found in the stars. This information will help scientists who try to understand the very beginning of our universe.

A merry-go-round is spinning at a rate of 4.04.0 revolutions per minute. Cora is sitting 0.50.5 m from the center of the merry-g
dsp73

Answer:

angular speed of both the children will be same

Explanation:

Rate of revolution of the merry go round is given as

f = 4.04 rev/min

so here we have

f = \frac{4.04}{60} =0.067 rev/s

here we know that angular frequency is given as

\omega = 2\pi f

\omega = 2\pi(0.067)

\omega = 0.42 rad/s

now this is the angular speed of the disc and this speed will remain same for all points lying on the disc

Angular speed do not depends on the distance from the center but it will be same for all positions of the disc

Consider heat transfer between two identical hot solid bodies and the air surrounding them. The first solid is being cooled by a
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The solution to the question above is explained below:

Explanation:

For which solid is the lumped system analysis more likely to be applicable?

<u>Answer</u>

The lumped system analysis is more likely to be applicable for the body cooled naturally.

<em>Question :Why?</em>

<u>Answer</u>

Biot number is proportional to the convection heat transfer coefficient, and it is proportional to the air velocity. When Biot no is less than 0.1 in  the case of natural convection, then lumped analysis can be applied.

<u>Further explanations:</u>

Heat is a form of energy.

Heat transfer describes the flow of heat across the boundary of a system due to temperature differences and the subsequent temperature distribution and changes. There are three different ways the heat can transfer: conduction, convection, or radiation.

Heat transfer  analysis which utilizes this idealization is known as the lumped system analysis.

The Biot number is a criterion dimensionless quantity used in heat transfer calculations which gives a direct indication of the relative importance of conduction and convection in determining the temperature history of a body being heated or cooled by convection at its surface. In heat transfer analysis, some bodies are observed to behave like a "lump" whose entire  body temperature remains essentially uniform at all times during a heat transfer process.

Conduction is the transfer of energy in the form of heat or electricity from one atom to another within an object and conduction of heat occurs when molecules increase in temperature.

Convection is a transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid. Convection occurs within liquids and gases between areas of different temperature.

Which of the following best describes an action-reaction pair? A. The Moon Pulls on Earth, and Earth pulls back on the moon. B.
Papessa [141]
An action-reaction pair would be a pair in which one of the elements exerts a force on the other element (action), and then the other element would respond to this force by exerting another force in the opposite direction (reaction).

From the given choices, we will see that:
For choice A, the moon exerts a force on the earth by pulling it (action) and the earth responds to this force by pulling the moon (reaction in opposite direction of the action).

Therefore, the correct choice would be: 
A. <span>The Moon Pulls on Earth, and Earth pulls back on the moon.</span>
