When the light ftom a star is observed at wavelengths shorter than they SHOULD BE, that indicates that the star is moving toward Earth. The wavengths don't shift while you're watching them. They're constant, at a wavelength shorter than they should be. The trick is how to know what the wavelengths of the light you're watching should be.

A hollow ball with a diameter of 3.81 cm has an average density of 0.0842 g/cm3. What force must be applied to hold it stationar
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

0.26

Explanation:

Given that :

Diameter of ball = 3.81 cm = 3.81/100 = 0.0381 m

Radius (r) = 0.0381 / 2 = 0.01905 m

Average density of ball (Db) = 0.0842 g/cm³ = (0.0842 / 1000)kg / 10^-6 = 0.0842/ 1000 * 10^6 = 84.2kg/m³

Density of water (Dw) = 1000kg/m³

Volume of hollow ball: (4/3) * pi * r³

V = (4/3) * π * 0.01905^3

V = 0.0000289583 m³

Required force = (Dw * V * g) - (Db * V * g)

= (1000 * 0.0000289583 * 9.8) - (84.2 * 0.0000289583 * 9.8)

= 0.259896109172

= 0.2598 N

A projectile is fired with a velocity of 22 m/s at an angle of 25°. What is the vertical component of the velocity?
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Vertical component of velocity is 9.29 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of projection of a projectile, v = 22 m/s

It is fired at an angle of 22°

The horizontal component of velocity is v cosθ

The vertical component of velocity is v sinθ

So, vertical component is given by :

v_y=v\ sin(25)

v_y=22\ m/s\times\ sin(25)

v_y=9.29\ m/s

Hence, the vertical component of the velocity is 9.29 m/s

The Sears Tower vibrates back and forth, it makes about 8.6
Leni [432]

Answer: Frequency is 0.143 Hz; Period is 7 seconds

Explanation:

Number of vibrations = 8.6

Time required = 60 seconds

Period (T) = ?

Frequency of the vibrations (F) = ?

A) Recall that frequency is the number of vibrations that the Sears tower completes in one second.

i.e Frequency = (Number of vibrations / time taken)

F = 8.6/60 = 0.143Hz

B) Period, T is inversely proportional to frequency. i.e Period = 1/Frequency

T = 1/0.143Hz

T = 7 seconds

Thus, the frequency and period of the vibrations of the Sears Tower are 0.143 Hz

and 7 seconds respectively.

4. Why isn't full employment the same as zero unemploy-<br>ment?​
Marina CMI [18]

Explanation:

Structural: This is a type of unemployment due to a change in demand or skill. ... Full employment is the same as zero employment because full employment is reached when there is no cyclical unemployment in the US. Zero unemployment is the idea where everyone is working and not one person doesn't have a job.
