irius, the brightest star in the sky, is 2.6 parsecs (8.6 light-years) from Earth, giving it a parallax of 0.379 arcseconds. Ano
Norma-Jean [14]

The actual distance of Regulus from Earth is 23.81 parsecs.

Given:

Parallax of Regulus, p = 0.042 arc seconds

Calculation:

When an observer changes their position, an apparent change in the object's position takes place. This change can be calculated using the angle ( or semi-angle) made by the observer and object i.e. the angle made between the two lines of observation from the object to the observer.

Thus from the relation of parallax of a celestial body we get:

S = 1/ tan p ≈ 1 / p

where S is the actual distance between the object and the observer

            p is the parallax angle observed

Here for Regulus, we get:

S = 1 / p

  = 1 / (0.042)                                     [ 1 parsecs = 1 arcseconds ]

  = 23.81 parsecs

We know that,

1 parsecs = 3.26 light-years = 206,000 AU

Converting the actual distance into light years we get:

23.81 parsecs = 23.81 × (3.26 light yrs) = 77.658 light-years

Therefore, the actual distance of Regulus from Earth is 23.81 parsecs which is 77.658 in light years.

Help me, please with this queastion
sergejj [24]

Answer:

Kinetic energy is the energy due to motion. Potential energy is energy stored in matter. The joule (J) is the SI unit of energy and equals (kg×m2s2) ( kg × m 2 s 2 ) .

Two beams of coherent light are shining on the same piece of white paper. with respect to the crests and troughs of such waves,
defon

Answer:

"where crests and troughs have their maxima at the same time"

Crests and troughs are 180 deg out of phase and when they have their maxima at the same time and place, their net contribution will be zero"

I got part c right but idk why the other parts are wrong HELP!
dedylja [7]

a) The impulse is 76.5 Ns

b) The average force is 546.4 N

c) The final speed is 31.5 m/s

Explanation:

a)

The impulse exerted on an object is defined as

J=\int F\Delta t

where

F is the magnitude of the force exerted on the object

\Delta t is the time interval during which the force is applied

If we consider a graph of the force applied vs time, it follows that the impulse exerted is equal to the area under the graph.

Therefore, in this problem, we can calculate the impulse by computing the area under the graph. We have a trapezium, whose bases are

B=0.14-0 = 0.14s\\b=8-5=3s

and whose height is

h=900 N

Therefore, the area (and the impulse) is

J=\frac{(B+b)h}{2}=\frac{(0.14+0.03)(900)}{2}=76.5 Ns

b)

In this problem, the force applied is not constant. However, we can rewrite the impulse also as

J=F_{avg} \Delta t

where

F_{avg} is the average force exerted during the whole time \Delta t

In this problem we have

J = 76.5 Ns is the impulse (calculated in part a)

\Delta t = 0.14 s is the time interval

Solving for the average force, we find

\Delta t = \frac{J}{F_{avg}}=\frac{76.5}{0.14}=546.4 N

c)

According to the impulse theorem, the impulse exerted on an object is equal to the change in momentum of the object:

J=\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

In this problem, we have

J = 76.5 Ns

m = 3.0 kg is the mass

u = 6.0 m/s is the initial velocity

Solving for v, we find the final velocity (and speed):

v=u+\frac{J}{m}=6.0+\frac{76.5}{3}=31.5 m/s
