Answer the following. (a) What is the surface temperature of Betelgeuse, a red giant star in the constellation of Orion, which r
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

(a) T = 2987.6 k

(b) T = 19986.2 k

Explanation:

The temperature of a star in terms of peak wavelength can be given by Wein's Displacement Law, which is as follows:

T = \frac{0.2898\ x\ 10^{-2}\ m.k}{\lambda_{max}}

where,

T = Radiated surface temperature

\lambda_{max} = peak wavelength

(a)

here,

\lambda_{max} = 970 nm = 9.7 x 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore,

T = \frac{0.2898\ x\ 10^{-2}\ m.k}{9.7\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m}

<u>T = 2987.6 k</u>

(b)

here,

\lambda_{max} = 145 nm = 1.45 x 10⁻⁷ m

Therefore,

T = \frac{0.2898\ x\ 10^{-2}\ m.k}{1.45\ x\ 10^{-7}\ m}

<u>T = 19986.2 k</u>

Near the top of the Citigroup Center building in New York City, there is an object with mass of 4.8 x 105 kg on springs that hav
Vikki [24]

Answer:

The force constant is  k =1.316 *10^{7} \  N/m

The energy stored in the spring is  E =  1.68 *10^{7} \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of the object is  M  = 4.8*10^{5} \ kg

    The period is T  = 1.2 \ s

The period of the spring oscillation is  mathematically represented as

         T  =2 \pi \sqrt{ \frac{M}{k}}

where  k is the force constant

   So making k the subject

       k = \frac{4 \pi ^2 M }{T^2}

substituting values

       k = \frac{4 (3.142) ^2 (4.8 *10^{5}) }{(1.2)^2}

      k =1.316 *10^{7} \  N/m

The energy stored in the spring is mathematically represented  as

       E =  \frac{1}{2} k x^2

Where x is the spring displacement which is given as

        x =  1.6 \ m

substituting values

      E =  \frac{1}{2} (1.316 *10^{7}) (1.6)^2

       E =  1.68 *10^{7} \ J

A ball having a mass of 200 g is released from rest at a height of 400 mm above a very large fixed metal surface. If the ball re
AysviL [449]

Answer:

0.9

Explanation:

h = 400 mm, h' = 325 mm

Let the coefficient of restitution be e.

h' = e^2 x h

325 = e^2 x 400

e^2 = 0.8125

e = 0.9

Two fans are watching a baseball game from different positions. One fan is located directly behind home plate, 18.3 m from the b
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

  • 0.317 s

Explanation:

distance of fan A = 18.3 m

distance of fan B = 127 m

speed of sound (s) = 343 m/s

What is the time difference between hearing the sound at the two locations?

time (T) = distance / speed

  • time for sound to reach fan A = 18.3 / 343 = 0.053 s
  • time it takes for sound to reach fan B = 127 / 343 = 0.370 s
  • time difference = 0.370 - 0.053 = 0.317 s
