Answer:

<em>Infrared telescope and camera</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

An infrared telescope uses infrared light to detect celestial bodies. The infrared radiation is one of the known forms of electromagnetic radiation. Infrared radiation is given off by a body possessing some form of heat. All bodies above the absolute zero temperature in the universe radiates some form of heat, which can then be detected by an infrared telescope, and infrared radiation can be used to study or look into a system that is void of detectable visible light.

Stars are celestial bodies that are constantly radiating heat. In order to see a clearer picture of the these bodies, <em>Infrared images is better used, since they are able to penetrate the surrounding clouds of dust,</em> and have located many more stellar components than any other types of telescope, especially in dusty regions of star clusters like the Trapezium cluster.

Well, I'm not sure right now that it actually does.

But if it does, that's because the sun is about 400 times

A crate slides down a ramp that makes a 20o angle with the ground. To keep the crate moving at a steady speed, Paige pushes back
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

-223.64684 J

Explanation:

F = Force that is applied to the crate = 68 N

s = Displacement of the crate = 3.5 m

\theta = Angle between the force and displacement vector = (180-20)

Work done is given by

W=Fscos\theta\\\Rightarrow W=68\times 3.5\times cos(180-20)\\\Rightarrow W=-223.64684\ J

The work that Paige does on the crate is -223.64684 J

1 7.1.2 Quiz: Electrostatics
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

charge and distance

Explanation:

The electric force between the two particles are calculated using the formular:

F = kQ₁Q₂ / d²

where:

F = force.

k= Coulomb's law constant.

Q1 and Q2 are the charges.

d= distance.

the equation above is called Coulomb's law.

It can be seen from the equation above that the electric forces between the objects are majorly affected by the substance's charges and distance.

so the correct option is charge and distance.
