Answer:

they stay shifted the same amount to the red

Explanation:

Redshift is given by

z=\dfrac{\lambda_o-\lambda_e}{\lambda_e}

Where,

\lambda_o = Wavelength observed

\lambda_e = Wavelength emitted

Also

Transverse redshift is given by

1+z=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{1-v^2/c^2}}

v = Velocity of object

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

So, if the velocity is constant the redshift remains the same

A 59kg child starting from rest slides down a water slide with a vertical height of 5.0m. what is the child's speed halfway down
KIM [24]
<span>EP (potential energy) = mgy -> (59)(9.8)(-5) = -2,891
   EP + EK (kinetic energy) = 0; but rearranging it for EK makes it EK = -EP, such that EK = 2891 when plugged in.
   EK = 0.5mv^2, but can also be v = sqrt(2EK/m).
   Plugging that in for sqrt((2 * 2891)/59), we get 9.9 m/s^2 with respect to significant figures.</span>

If a 5.5 kg object experiences 15 N of force for .15 seconds what is the speed change
Nady [450]

The speed change : Δv = 0.41 m/s

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass = 5.5 kg

Force = 15 N

time = 0.15 s

Required

the speed change

Solution

Newton 2nd's law

Impulse and momentum

F = m.a

F = m . Δv/t

F.t = m.Δv

Input the value :

15 N x 0.15 s = 5.5 kg x Δv

Δv = 0.41 m/s

Neko [114]
The answer is letter C. <span>A train travels from the bottom of a hill to the top of a hill, its moves slower by the time it reaches the top is an example of negative acceleration.

In physics, acceleration can be described as an objects change of velocity. When an object gains velocity, it is positive acceleration, and negative acceleration for the opposite.

A distance of 0.002 m separates two objects of equal mass. If the gravitational force between them is
Alika [10]

Answer: 24.97 kg

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects of masses M1, and M2 respectively, and separated by a distance R, is:

F = G*(M1*M2)/R^2

Where G is the gravitational constant:

G = 6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2)

In this case, we know that

R = 0.002m

F = 0.0104 N

and that M1 = M2 = M

And we want to find the value of M, then we can replace those values in the equation to get

0.0104 N = (6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2))*(M*M)/(0.002m)^2

(0.0104 N)*(0.002m)^2/(6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2)) = M^2

623.69 kg^2 = M^2

√(623.69 kg^2) = M = 24.97 kg

This means that the mass of each object is 24.97 kg
