The correct answer:

The color of a star is primarily determined by its Surface temperature.

The explanation:

-Stars emit colors of many different wavelengths, but the wavelength of light where a star's emission is concentrated is related to the star's temperature - the hotter the star, the bluer it is; the cooler the star, the redder it is.

The surface temperature is used to estimate the wavelength that radiated within. the star with lower wavelength tends to have purple-ish color, while the one with higher wavelength tends to have orange-ish color.

For example, the really hot stars, called White Dwarf stars, have a white surface temperature, while a cooler star would have a more red color.

What is the magnetic force on a proton that is moving at 2.5 107 m/s to the left through a magnetic field that is 3.4 T and poin
evablogger [386]

Answer: C. 1.4 10-11 N up

Explanation:

The magnetic force, F on a charge q moving with velocity v in a magnetic field B at an angle θ is given by:

F = q v B sin θ

Charge of proton, q = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

Strength of magnetic field, B = 3.4 T pointing outwards

velocity of the proton, v = 2.5 × 10⁷ m/s towards left

Magnetic force is given by:

F =  1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C× 2.5 × 10⁷ m/s ×3.4 T× sin 90 = 13.6 × 10⁻¹² N = 1.4 × 10⁻¹¹ N up

The direction of the force is given by Lorentz Right hand rule. The fingers point magnetic field, the thumb points towards velocity, then the force on the proton is given by the direction perpendicular to the palm.  

The magnetic field acts outwards with velocity of the proton towards left. The force would act perpendicular to the two -upwards.

A boy reaches out of a window and tosses a ball straight up with a speed of 10 m/s. The ball is 20 m above the ground as he rele
e-lub [12.9K]

MARK ME BRAINLIEST PLEASE!!!!!

The total energy TE = mgh + 1/2 mU^2; where h = 20 m, g = 9.81 m/sec^2, and U = 10 mps. When the ball reaches max height H, all that TE will be potential energy PE = mgH = TE.

So there you are. TE = mgh + 1/2 mU^2 = mgH = TE from the conservation of energy. Solve for H.

1) H = (gh + 1/2 U^2)/g = h + U^2/2g = ? meters where everything on the RHS is given. You can do the math.

2) As the ball drops from H to h, it picks up KE as the potential energy mgH is converted when the potential energy is diminished to mgh, where h < H. So PE - pe = ke = mg(H - h) = 1/2 mv^2 so solve for v = sqrt(2g(H - h)) and, again, everything is given. You can do the math.

3) Same deal as 2) except now its V = sqrt(2gH) because all the PE = mgH = 1/2 mV^2 = KE when it is about to hit the ground. You can do the math.

Three ideal polarizing filters are stacked, with the polarizing axis of the second and third filters at 29.0and 58.0, respective
Kryger [21]

Answer:

     I₂ = 143.79

Explanation:

To solve this problem, work them in two parts. A first one where we look for the intensity of the incident light in the set and a second one where we silence the light transmuted by the other set,

Let's start with the set of three curling irons

Beautiful light falls on the first polarized is not polarized, therefore only half the radiation passes

              I₁ = I₀ / 2

this light reaches the second polarized and must comply with the Mule law

             I₂ = I₁ cos² tea

The angle between the first polarized and the second is Tea = 29.0º

             I₂ = I / 2 cos² 29

The light that comes out of the third polarized is

              I₃ = I₂ cos² tea

the angle between the third - second polarizer is

             tea = 58-29

             tea = 29th

               I3 = (I₀ / 2 cos² 29) cos² 29

indicate the output intensity

                I3 = 110

we clear

              I₀ = 2I3 / cos4 29

              I₀ = 2 110 / cos4 29

              I₀ = 375.96 W / cm²

Now we have the incident intensity in the new set of three polarizers

back to the for the first polarizer

                 I₁ = I₀ / 2

when passing the second polarizer

                     I₂ = I1 cos² 29

                    I2 = IO /2 cos²29

let's calculate

                I₂ = 375.96 / 2 cos² 29

               I₂ = 143.79
