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.

Radio waves travel at a speed of 300,000,000 m/s. WFNX broadcasts radio waves at a

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

Wavelength, $\lambda=2.94\ m$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of radio waves is $v=3\times 10^8\ m/s$

Frequency of radio waves is f = 101,700,000 Hz

We need to find the wavelength of WFNX’s radio waves. The relation between wavelength, frequency and speed of a wave is given by :

$v=f\lambda$

$\lambda$ is wavelength

$\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{101,700,000}\\\\\lambda=2.94\ m$

So, the wavelength of WFNX’s radio waves is 2.94 m.

Q.Solve the following circuit find total resistance RT. Also find value of voltage across resister RC.

Drupady [299]

Answer:

14.57 ohms

Explanation:

Here in the figure ,Rb & R₄are in series & also Rc & R₅ are in series. As they are in series , ( Rb + R₄ ) & (Rc & R₅) are in parallel . So the equivalent resistance in that branch = ( 2 + 18 ) ║ ( 3 + 12 )

= 20 ║ 15

= (20×15) / (20 + 15)

= 8.57 ohms

Also Ra ( 6 ohm ) is in series with that branch ,. So the equivalent resistance of the whole circuit = 8.57 + 6 = 14.57 ohms.

A freight car with a mass of 10 metric tons is rolling at 108 km/h along a level track when it collides with another freight car

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

20 metric tons

Explanation:

Using the Principle of Conservation of Linear Momentum which states that the total momentum of a system is constant in any direction in which no external force acts.

momentum before collision= momentum after collision

mathematically expressed as

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1+m2v2 =0

where:

m1= mass of rolling freight car = 10 metric tons = 10Mg

1 ton = 1000kg= 1Mg

u1 =initial velocity of freight car = 108km/h,

m2 = mass of stationary freight car = ?, this the unknown we are finding

u2 = initial velocity of

m2 = 0, because it is at rest,

v1= final velocity of m1,

v2= final velocity of m2

since they move together in the same direction they share a common final velocity as such

v1=v2= 36km/h

substituting valves in expression give

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2= 0

10Mgx 108km/hr + m2 x 0 = 10Mg x 36km/h + m2x36km/h

1080( Mg x km/hr) + 0 = 360 (Mg x Km/h) + 36m2 (km/h)

1080 (Mgx km/hr) - 360(Mg x km/h) = 36m2 (km/h)

720(Mg x km/h) = 36m2 (km/h)

divide both side by 36 (km/h) gives

m2 = 20Mg =20 metric tons
