Answer:

The redshifts of the underlying galaxies match the redshifts of the quasars in their center and thus quasars are at distances indicated by their redshifts.

A stone is dropped from the

ICE Princess25 [194]

Height=h=500m
Acceleration=g=10m/s^2
Initial velocity=u=0
Speed of sound=c=340m/s
TIME TAKEN BY STONE TO HIT WATER=t
Time taken by sound to hear back=T

Now

$\\ \sf\longmapsto h=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto h=0t+\dfrac{1}{2}10t^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 500=5t^2$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto t^2=100$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto t=10s$

Now

$\\ \sf\longmapsto h=cT$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto T=\dfrac{h}{c}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto T=\dfrac{500}{340}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto T=1.47\approx 1.5s$

Total time:-

$\\ \sf\longmapsto T_{net}=t+T=10+1.5=11.5s$

Which wavelength produces fluorescence? Why do you think this wavelength produces fluorescence while the other does not?

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Long wavelength

Explanation:

Wavelengths that corresponds to the bands of blue and red are strongly absorbed whereas the wavelengths that lie in the mid-range corresponds to green light that are absorbed weakly.

Fluorescence produced is always directed towards longer wavelengths of the spectra as compared to the corresponding spectra for absorption.

A very long straight current-carrying wire produces a magnetic field of 25 µT at a distance d from the wire. How far will the ma

daser333 [38]

The magnetic field strength of a very long current-carrying wire is proportional to the inverse of the distance from the wire. The farther you go from the wire, the weaker the magnetic field becomes.

B ∝ 1/d

B = magnetic field strength, d = distance from wire

Calculate the scaling factor for d required to change B from 25μT to 2.8μT:

2.8μT/25μT = 1/k

k = 8.9

You must go to a distance of 8.9d to observe a magnetic field strength of 2.8μT
