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.

Beginning at the NW corner of the intersection of Pine &amp; 675, thence north 950 feet, thence west 380 feet, thence south 950
Serjik [45]

Answer:

this description is valid for mediadle displacement, bone is an acceptable description

Explanation:

The description of a person's position must be done with a position vector. These vectors must have magnitude, a given direction and a starting point.

In the description this has a starting point corner NO of pine and 675.

Each displacement occurs with respect to the previous one, indicating the magnitude of the displacement and its direction.

After analyzing  this description is valid for mediadle displacement, bone is an acceptable description

two ships leave a port at the same time. The first ship sails on a bearing of 40 degrees at 18 knots and the second at a bearing
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The distance between the ships is 87.84 km.

Explanation:

Given that,

Angle of first ship= 40°

Speed of first ship = 18 knots

Angle of second ship= 130°

Speed of second ship = 26 knots

We need to calculate the resultant velocity

Using cosine rule

v=\sqrt{v_{1}^2+v_{2}^2-2v_{1}v_{2}\cos\theta}

Put the value into the formula

v=\sqrt{18^2+26^2-2\times18\times26\times\cos90}

v=\sqrt{18^2+26^2}

v=\sqrt{324+676}

v=10\sqrt{10}

We need to calculate the distance between the ships

d =v\times t

Put the value into the formula

d=10\sqrt{10}\times1.5\times1.852

d=87.84\ km

Hence, The distance between the ships is 87.84 km.

A steel wire of length 31.0 m and a copper wire of length 17.0 m, both with 1.00-mm diameters, are connected end to end and stre
Brut [27]

Answer:

The time taken is  t =  0.356 \ s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The length of steel the wire is  l_1  = 31.0 \ m

   The  length of the  copper wire is  l_2  = 17.0 \ m

    The  diameter of the wire is  d =  1.00 \ m  =  1.0 *10^{-3} \ m

     The  tension is  T  =  122 \ N

     

The time taken by the transverse wave to travel the length of the two wire is mathematically represented as

              t  =  t_s  +  t_c

Where  t_s is the time taken to transverse the steel wire which is mathematically represented as

         t_s  = l_1 *  [ \sqrt{ \frac{\rho * \pi *  d^2 }{ 4 *  T} } ]

here  \rho_s is the density of steel with a value  \rho_s  =  8920 \ kg/m^3

   So

      t_s  = 31 *  [ \sqrt{ \frac{8920 * 3.142*  (1*10^{-3})^2 }{ 4 *  122} } ]

      t_s  = 0.235 \ s

 And

        t_c is the time taken to transverse the copper wire which is mathematically represented as

      t_c  = l_2 *  [ \sqrt{ \frac{\rho_c * \pi *  d^2 }{ 4 *  T} } ]

here  \rho_c is the density of steel with a value  \rho_s  =  7860 \ kg/m^3

 So

      t_c  = 17 *  [ \sqrt{ \frac{7860 * 3.142*  (1*10^{-3})^2 }{ 4 *  122} } ]

      t_c  =0.121

So  

   t  = t_c  + t_s

    t =  0.121 + 0.235

    t =  0.356 \ s
