Answer:

The other person is right, the answer is they appear to shift towards blue.

Explanation:

This shifts the star’s spectral lines toward the blue end of the spectrum. If the star is moving away from us, it’s waves are effectively stretched out when they reach earth, increasing their wavelength. This shifts the star’s spectral lines toward the red end of the spectrum.

The electric field 1.5 cm from a very small charged object points toward the object with a magnitude of 180,000 N/C. What is the
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

q = 4.5 nC

Explanation:

given,

electric field of small charged object, E = 180000 N/C

distance between them, r = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m

using equation of electric field

E = \dfrac{kq}{r^2}

k = 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

q is the charge of the object

q= \dfrac{Er^2}{k}

now,

q= \dfrac{180000\times 0.015^2}{9\times 10^9}

      q = 4.5 x 10⁻⁹ C

      q = 4.5 nC

the charge on the object is equal to 4.5 nC

A runner of mass 56.0kg runs around the edge of a horizontal turntable mounted on a vertical, frictionless axis through its cent
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer: -0.84 rad/sec (clockwise)

Explanation:

Assuming no external torques act on the system (man + turntable), total angular momentum must be conserved:

L1 = L2

L1 = It ω + mm. v . r = 81.0 kg . m2 .21 rad/s – 56.0 kg. 3.1m/s . 3.1 m  

L1 = -521.15 kg.m2/sec (1)

(Considering to the man as a particle that is moving opposite to the rotation of  the turntable, so the sign is negative).

Once at rest, the runner is only a point mass with a given rotational inertia respect from the axis of rotation, that can be expressed as follows:

Im = m. r2 = 56.0 kg. (3.1m)2 = 538.16 kg.m2

The total angular momentum, once the runner has come to an stop, can be written as follows:

L2= (It + Im) ωf = -521.15 kg.m2/sec  

L2= (81.0 kg.m2 + 538.16 kg.m2) ωf = -521.15 kg.m2/sec  

Solving for ωf, we get:

ωf = -0.84 rad/sec  (clockwise)
