What is the speed of a bobsled whose distance-time graph indicates that it traveled 117m in 25s

Consider a small car of mass 1200 kg and a large sport utility vehicle (SUV) of mass 4000 kg. The SUV is traveling at the speed

Karolina [17]

Answer:

63.9 m/s

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass of small car, m = 1200 kg

Mass of SUV, M = 4000 kg

Speed of SUV, V = 35 m/s

Their kinetic energy of the small car is equal to the kinetic energy of the SUV, hence:

0.5 * m * v² = 0.5 * M * V²

=> 0.5 * 1200 * v² = 0.5 * 4000 * 35²

600 * v² = 2450000

v² = 2450000/600

v² = 4083.3

=> v = 63.9 m/s

The speed of the small car is 63.9 m/s.

In which wavelength region(s) would we need to carry out observations in order to study the accretion disk around a white dwarf

Inga [223]

In “Ultraviolet light” and “X-ray” light wavelength regions are needed to carry out observations to study the “accretion disk” around “a white dwarf” in a “binary system”.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Occurrence of an accretion disk is due to presence of diffuse material around a white dwarf in orbital motion. White dwarf is constituted from electron-degenerate matter therefore also called as degenerate dwarf in binary system. Frictional forces and gravitational forces are responsible to compress and high “temperature” of the material, results with emission of “electromagnetic radiation”. “Accretion disks” of white dwarf radiate in the UV-rays and X-rays wavelength region of spectrum.

Gravity can be described as (2 points)

ladessa [460]

Answer:

"the force of attraction between two objects"

Explanation:

According to Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation, gravity is a force of attraction acting between objects that possess mass. The fact that we only observe gravitational attraction (as opposed to repulsion) makes gravity unique among the known forces.

The emission of x rays can be described as an inverse photoelectric effect.

timama [110]

Answer:

The potential difference through which an electron accelerates to produce x rays is $1.24\times 10^4\ volts$ .

Explanation:

It is given that,

Wavelength of the x -rays, $\lambda=0.1\ nm=0.1\times 10^{-9}\ m$

The energy of the x- rays is given by :

$E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}$

The energy of an electron in terms of potential difference is given by :

$E=eV$

So,

$\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}=eV$

V is the potential difference

e is the charge on electron

$V=\dfrac{hc}{e\lambda}$

$V=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.1\times 10^{-9}}$

V = 12431.25 volts

or

$V=1.24\times 10^4\ volts$

So, the potential difference through which an electron accelerates to produce x rays is $1.24\times 10^4\ volts$ . hence, this is the required solution.
