The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "all of the above." the following that can be determined by studying the spectrum of a star includes: the chemicals in the atmosphere of the star; the motion of the star; <span>the temperature of the atmosphere of the star.</span>

Answer:

all of the above

Explanation:

The spectrum of the star is is used to study its composition, motion and surface temperature. The absorbed or emitted wavelength indicates the elements present. The peak wavelength determines the surface temperature of the star using Wein's law. Peak wavelength is inversely proportional to temperature. The red-shift or blue shift indicates whether the star is moving away or towards us.

Calculate the acceleration of a bus whose speed changes from 7 m/s to 16 m/s over a period of 5 s.

Bezzdna [24]

Let’s do this together!

Okay so the acceleration formula is vf-vi over time .

So the initial velocity (vi) 7m/s final velocity (vf) is 16m/s so we’re going to subtract 16-7 which is 9
M/s

So the time is 5s so 9m/s divided into 5s is 1.8m/s/2

So the answer is 1.8m\s2

You are camping with two friends, Joe and Karl. Since all three of you like your privacy, you don't pitch your tents close toget

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

35.7 m

Explanation:

Let

$\mid A\mid=18.5 m$

$\mid B\mid=41 m$

We have to find the distance between Joe's and Karl'e tent.

$A_x=Acos\theta$

$A_y=Asin\theta$

Substitute the values then we get

$A_x=18.5cos23^{\circ}=17 m$

$A_y=18.5sin 23^{\circ}=7.2 m$

$B_x=41cos37.5^{\circ}=32.5 m$

$B_y=41sin37.5^{\circ}=-24.96 m$

Because vertical component of B lie in IV quadrant and y-inIV quadrant is negative.

By triangle addition of vector

$B=A+C$

$C=B-A$

$C_x=B_x-A_x=32.5-17=15.5 m$

$C_y=B_y-A_y=-24.96-7.2=-32.16\approx=-32.2 m$

$\mid C\mid=\sqrt{C^2_x+C^2_y}$

$\mid C\mid=\sqrt{(15.5)^2+(-32.2)^2}=35.7 m$

Hence, the distance between Joe's and Karl's tent=35.7 m

An inventor develops a stationary cycling device by which an individual, while pedaling, can convert all of the energy expended

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

$Q=94185\ J$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of water, $m=0.3\ kg$

initial temperature of water, $T_i=20^{\circ}C$

final temperature of water, $T_f=95^{\circ}C$

specific heat of water, $c=4186\ J.kg^{-1}.K^{-1}$

<u>Now the amount of heat energy required:</u>

$Q=m.c.\Delta T$

$Q=0.3\times 4186\times (95-20)$

$Q=94185\ J$

Since all of the mechanical energy is being converted into heat, therefore the same amount of mechanical energy is required.

A system gains 757 kJ757 kJ of heat, resulting in a change in internal energy of the system equal to +176 kJ.+176 kJ. How much w

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

581 kJ, work was done by the system

Explanation:

According to the first law of thermodynamics:

$\Delta U = Q-W$

where

$\Delta U$ is the change in internal energy of the system

Q is the heat absorbed by the system (positive if absorbed, negative if released)

W is the work done by the system (positive if done by the system, negative if done by the surrounding)

In this problem,

$Q=+757 kJ$

$\Delta U = +176 kJ$

Therefore the work done by the system is

$W=Q-\Delta U=757 kJ-176 kJ=+581 kJ$

And the positive sign means the work is done BY the system.
