Which of the following statements is accurate? A. Sound waves passing through the air will do so as transverse waves, which vibr

ate vertically and still retain their horizontal positions. B. Compressions and rarefactions occur throughout a transverse wave. C. Amplitude of longitudinal waves is measured at right angles to the direction of the travel of the wave and represents the maximum distance the molecule has moved from its normal position. D. The wavelength of both transverse and longitudinal waves is measured parallel to the direction of the travel of the wave.

Two identical 7.10-gg metal spheres (small enough to be treated as particles) are hung from separate 700-mmmm strings attached t
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let m be mass of each sphere and θ be angle, string makes with vertex in equilibrium.

Let T be tension in the hanging string

T cosθ = mg ( for balancing in vertical direction )

for balancing in horizontal direction

Tsinθ = F ( F is force of repulsion between two charges sphere)

Dividing the two equations

Tanθ = F / mg

tan17 = F / (7.1 x 10⁻³ x 9.8)

F = 21.27 x 10⁻³ N

if q be charge on each sphere , force of repulsion between the two

F = k q x q / r² ( r is distance between two sphere , r = 2 x .7 x sin17  = .41 m )

21.27 x 10⁻³  = (9 X 10⁹ x q²) / .41²

q² = .3973 x 10⁻¹²

q = .63 x 10⁻⁶ C

no of electrons required  = q / charge on a single electron

= .63 x 10⁻⁶ / 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

= .39375 x 10¹³

3.9375 x 10¹² .

What happens to light waves from a star as the star moves away from Earth?
AURORKA [14]
<h2>Answer: Light waves have a redshift due to the Doppler effect </h2>

The astronomer Edwin Powell Hubble observed several celestial bodies, and when obtaining the spectra of distant galaxies he observed the spectral lines were displaced towards the red (red shift), whereas the nearby galaxies showed a spectrum displaced to the blue.  

From there, Hubble deduced that the farther the galaxy is, the more redshifted it is in its spectrum. <u>The same happens with the stars and this phenomenom is known as the Doppler effect. </u>

This phenomenon refers to the change in a wave perceived frequency (or wavelength=color) when the emitter of the waves, and the receiver (or observer in the case of light) move relative to each other.  For example, as a star moves away from the Earth, its espectrum turns towards the red.

A 60 kg box is lifted by a rope a distance of 10 meters straight up at constant speed. how much power is required to complete th
Nadya [2.5K]
Power=Work/Time
The work done is the energy required to lift the box, fighting the force of gravity. So, Work=Potential energy of the box at 10 meters.

W=PE=mgh=(60)(9.8)(10)=5880J
Finally,
P=W/T=(5880)/(5)=1176Watt

So the answer is 1176 Watts

A minimum temperature thermometer in a standard weather instrument shelter measures an overnight low temperature of 36 degrees F
Rudiy27

Answer:

Explanation:

Even though the minimum temperature is more than the freezing point, Frost was observed on the ground because the ground will cool rapidly as cool air tends to move towards the ground, the temperature of the ground is lower than the atmosphere a few feet above it.

As the thermometer is kept some feet above the ground so ground temperature may be lower than the minimum recorded temperature.
