Answer:

C. Astrology made contributions to the science of astronomy.

Explanation:

Astrology is predicting the future or personality of someone basis their zodiac signs and the positions of celestial objects at the time of their birth. It is not based on latest facts of astronomy and doesn't take the change in the state of celestial objects in their prediction.

That is why it is called a pseudoscience. It has not contributed in the science of Astronomy. In fact the astrologers used the findings of astronomy to crate this pseudoscience. That is why statement 3 is not true about astrology.

A police radar gun uses X-band microwave radiation at a frequency of 12.2 GHz. Microwaves travel at the speed of light, or 3x108

quester [9]

Answer:

A police radar gun uses X-band microwave radiation at a frequency of 13.1 GHz. Microwaves travel at the speed of light, or 3x108 m/s. Since the frequency shift will be small for practical car speeds and difficult to detect, the shifted frequency is compared to the original frequency, and the resulting beat frequency is used to determine the speed of the car.

a.) If Michael is traveling at 29 m/s, what is the resulting beat frequency that the radar gun detects?

ANSWER: 2533 Hz

A boat is able to move through still water at 20 m/s. It makes a round trip to a town 3.0 km upstream. If the river flows at 5m/

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Option e) 320 s

Explanation:

Here, distance = 3.0 km = 3000 m

The velocity of boat when it is going upstream;

Upstream velocity = velocity of boat in still water - velocity of river flow

So, Upstream velocity $=20m/s-5m/s=15m/s$

So,Time to go upstream

$(t_{1}) =\frac{Distance}{Velocity}=\frac{3000m}{15m/s} =200 s$

The velocity of boat when it is going downstream;

Downstream velocity = velocity of boat in still water + velocity of river flow

So, Downstream velocity $=20m/s+5m/s=25m/s$

So,Time to go downstream

$(t_{2}) =\frac{Distance}{Velocity}=\frac{3000m}{25m/s} =120 s$

So, total time (t) = $t_{1}+t_{2}=200s+120 s=320s$

Option E is the correct answer.

A system that repeats to and from its mean or rest point. that executes harmonic motion. a few examples I've heard of are since the springtime a mass-spring system,a swing, simple pendulum, one more example is a steel ball rolling in a curved is this what you need or do you need three more sentences dish. to get S.H.M a body just displaced away from the resting position and of course then is released. the human body oscillates due to the reinforce that pulls it back do you need anything else answered on this and I'll answer it

The electric field of a sinusoidal electromagnetic wave obeys the equation E=(375V/m)cos[(1.99×107rad/m)x+(5.97×1015rad/s)t].a.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

A) max = Eo = 375 V/m, B) B = 125 10⁻⁸ T , C) f = 9.50 101⁴ Hz, D) λ = 3.158 10⁻⁷ m, E) T = 1.05 10⁻¹⁵ s , F) invisible for humans G) v = c = 3 10⁸ m/s

Explanation:

The expression given for the electric field is

E = 375 cos (1.99 107x + 5.97 105t)

The general formula for the electric field of a transverse traveler is

E = Eo cos (kx-wt)

Where k is the wave number and w the angular velocity

A) The amplitudes as electric is

Emax = Eo = 375 V / m

B) the electric and magnetic field are related

E / B = c

B = E / c

B = 375/3 108

B = 125 10⁻⁸ T

C) angular velocity and frequency is related

.w = 2π f

f = w / 2π

f = 5.97 10¹⁵ / 2π

f = 9.50 101⁴ Hz

D) the speed of light has the formula

c = λ f

λ = c / f

λ = 3 10⁸ / 9.50 10¹⁴

λ = 3.158 10⁻⁷ m

E) The period

T = 1 / f

T = 1 / 9.5 10¹⁴

T = 1.05 10⁻¹⁵ s

F) let's reduce the wavelength nm

λ = 3.158 10⁻⁷ m (10⁹nm / 1m)

λ = 3.158 10²nm = 315.3 nm

The visible radiation range is between 400nm and 700nm. This radiation is ultraviolet and is invisible humans

G) All electromagnetic radiation has a speed at the speed of light (c)

v = c = 3 10⁸ m/s
