Convex Lenses are used to focus light and form a image. They are transparent.

They are one type of lenses. Different type of lenses are used to focus light differently. The basic lenses are concave and convex. Convex lenses converge light falling on it whereas concave lenses diverge light falling on it.

Find the speed for a star in which this line appears at wavelength 120.2 nm . Express your answer to three significant figures a
levacccp [35]

Answer:

The speed of the star is -3.45x10^{6}m/s

Explanation:

Spectral lines will be shifted to the blue part of the spectrum if the source of the observed light is moving toward the observer, or to the red part of the spectrum when it is moving away from the observer (that is known as the Doppler effect).

Redshift: \lambda_{measured}  >  \lambda_{0}

Blueshift: \lambda_{measured}  <  \lambda_{0}

The wavelength at rest is 121.6 nm (\lambda_{0} = 121.6nm)

Due to that shift the velocity of the star can be determined by means of Doppler velocity.

v = c\frac{\Delta \lambda}{\lambda_{0}} (1)

Where \Delta \lambda is the wavelength shift, \lambda_{0} is the wavelength at rest, v is the velocity of the source and c is the speed of light.

v = c(\frac{\lambda_{measured}- \lambda_{0}}{\lambda_{0}})

In this case \lambda_{measured} is equal to 120.2 nm.

v = (3x10^8m/s)(\frac{120.2 nm - 121.6 nm}{121.6 nm)})

v = -3.45x10^{6}m/s

Hence, the speed of the star is -3.45x10^{6}m/s.

Notice that the negative velocity means that the star is moving toward the observer.

The local newspaper has published the passage below. Last week, scientists released incredible images of aurora australis, known
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

The statement as aurora australis known as northern lights is incorrect. As the designation of aurora australis is for the southern lights i.e. which occur in the southern hemisphere.

Explanation:

Aurora or natural lights is a phenomenon that occurs at the poles of the Earth due to interaction between the Earth's magnetic field and cosmic rays. This interaction results in the beautiful display of colors on both poles. These are named, aurora borealis or aurora australis depending on their geographical location. If they occur on the northern pole they are termed as aurora borealis while those occurring on the southern pole are named aurora australis.

A coin is resting on the bottom of an empty container. The container is then fi lled to the brim three times, each time with a d
ahrayia [7]

when we placed in the container of real depth assuming = d

if the container filled with liquid A then its apparent depth d' = 7cm

so the refractive index nA = real depth / apparent depth

                                       = d/7cm = 0.1428d

if the container filled with liquid B then its apparent depth d' = 6cm

so the refractive index nB = real depth / apparent depth

                                       = d/6cm = 0.166d

if the container filled with liquid C then its apparent depth d' = 5cm

so the refractive index nC = real depth / apparent depth

                                       = d/5cm = 0.2d

Since the refractive index is inversely proportional to the apparent depth

then the refractive indices are nC > nB > nA
