Which part of the electromagnetic spectrum generally gives us our best views of stars forming in dusty clouds?

1 answer:

3 0

<span>We can see stars forming in dusty clouds because of the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. Infrared waves pass through dust in outer space more easily than visible light. Interstellar dust absorbs visible light, a phenomena known as dust extinction.</span>

How do you find the water pressure at the bottom of the 55-m-high water tower?

svp [43]

-- What's the volume of a cylinder with radius=1m and height=55m ?

   ( Volume of a cylinder = π R² h )

-- How much does that volume of water weigh ?

    1 liter of water = 1 kilogram of mass
Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity)

-- What's the area of the bottom of that 1m-radius cylinder ?

   Pressure = (force) / (area)

How does your power output in climbing the stairs compare to the power output of a 100-watt light bulb? if your power could have

cricket20 [7]

1) Assuming an adult person has an average mass of m=80 kg, and assuming it takes about 30 seconds to climb 5 meters of stairs, the energy used by the person is
$E=mgh=(80 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)(5 m)=3924 J$
So the power output is
$P= \frac{E}{t}= \frac{3924 J}{30 s} \sim 130 W$

And since the estimate we made is very rough, we can say that the power output of the person is comparable to the power output of the light bulb of 100 W.

2) Based on the results we found in the previous part of the exercise, since the power output of the person is comparable to the power output of 1 light bulb of 100 W, we can say that the person could have kept burning only one 100-W light bulb during the climb.

Answer:

t = 3.48 s

Explanation:

The time for the maximum height can be calculated by taking the derivative of height function with respect to time and making it equal to zero:

$h(t) = -16t^2+v_ot+h_o\\\\\frac{dh(t)}{dt}=0=-32t+v_o\\\\v_o = 32t$
