Astronomers build optical telescopes on tops of mountains because a. there is less air to dim the light. b. the seeing is better

V125BC [204]

Answer: choices a and b

Explanation:

Telescope can be defined as am optical instrument which is designed to observe the distant objects clear and nearer. It comprises of arrangement of lenses which allow the rays of light to be collected. The collected light is focused and the image so produced is magnified in the form of an image. The telescopes are prepared and manufactured on mountains top as this will help in preventing the distortion of light obtain from the star due to the fluctuation of air mass in the atmosphere. The atmospheric distortion affects the resolution, and affects the vision. The atmospheric pressure is low at the mountain tops so it will help in better observation of the sky.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Scientists measure the time between the arrival of an earthquake's __P____ and ___S____ waves to help determine the distance between the recording seismograph and the earthquake epicenter.

Explanation:

P- (compressional) and S- (shear) waves produced in earthquakes travel at different speeds. P waves are faster than S waves and hence will be detected first by a seismograph after an earthquake. The further away a seismograph is from the epicenter of an earthquake, the longer the time difference between the two (2) waves will be.

Using several, at least 3, seismographs located at different geoghraphical locations and detecting earthquakes, geologists can extrapolate the epicenter of an earthquake using the time differences in arrivals of the two waves in each of the seismographs, using the mathematics of triangulation.

A body of mass 2.7 kg makes an elastic collision with another body at rest and continues to move in the original direction but w

kramer

Answer:

1.35 kg

2.67 ms⁻¹

Explanation:

$m_{1}$ = mass of first body = 2.7 kg

$m_{2}$ = mass of second body = ?

$v_{1i}$ = initial velocity of the first body before collision = $v$

$v_{2i}$ = initial velocity of the second body before collision = 0 m/s

$v_{1f}$ = final velocity of the first body after collision =

using conservation of momentum equation

$m_{1} v_{1i} + m_{2} v_{2i} = m_{1} v_{1f} + m_{2} v_{2f}\\(2.7) v + m_{2} (0) = (2.7) (\frac{v}{3} ) + m_{2} v_{2f}\\(2.7) (\frac{2v}{3} ) = m_{2} v_{2f}\\v_{2f} = \frac{1.8v}{m_{2}}$

Using conservation of kinetic energy

$m_{1} v_{1i}^{2}+ m_{2} v_{2i}^{2} = m_{1} v_{1f}^{2} + m_{2} v_{2f}^{2} \\(2.7) v^{2} + m_{2} (0)^{2} = (2.7) (\frac{v}{3} )^{2} + m_{2} (\frac{1.8v}{m_{2}})^{2} \\(2.7) = (0.3) + \frac{3.24}{m_{2}}\\m_{2} = 1.35$

$m_{1}$ = mass of first body = 2.7 kg

$m_{2}$ = mass of second body = 1.35 kg

$v_{1i}$ = initial velocity of the first body before collision = 4 ms⁻¹

$v_{2i}$ = initial velocity of the second body before collision = 0 m/s

Speed of the center of mass of two-body system is given as

$v_{cm} = \frac{(m_{1} v_{1i} + m_{2} v_{2i})}{(m_{1} + m_{2})}\\v_{cm} = \frac{((2.7) (4) + (1.35) (0))}{(2.7 + 1.35)}\\\\v_{cm} = 2.67$ ms⁻¹

A box of paper is labeled 24lb paper. This means that 500 sheets (counted number) of paper size 17in x 22in weighs 24 pounds (Th

Tresset [83]

Answer:

The mass of a single paper is approximately 0.047 lb/paper which in SI Units is approximately 21.77 g/paper

Explanation:

The given information on the size and the weight of paper are;

The mass of a box of 500 sheets of paper = 24 lb

The number of sheets in the paper = 500 sheets

The dimensions of the paper = 17 in. × 22 in., which is equivalent to 43.18 cm × 55.88 cm

The mass of a single paper = The mass of the box of paper/(The number of sheets of paper present in the box)

The mass of a single paper = 24 lb/500 = 0.047 lb/paper

Given that 1 lb = 453.6 g, we have;

0.047 lb/paper = 0.047 lb/paper×453.6 g/(lb) = 21.77 g/paper

The mass of a single paper = 0.047 lb/paper = 21.77 g/paper.
