How many cycles have been completed after 3 seconds on the graph​
Reptile [31]

Answer:

3 Cycles

Explanation:

Every cycle on a cosine function are marked by the completion of 5 key points when moving along the x-axis:

An object is launched with an initial speed of 30 m/s at an angle of 60° above the horizontal . What is the maximum height reach
matrenka [14]

Answer:

H = 34.43 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the object, u = 30 m/s

The angle of projection, \theta=60^{\circ}

We need to find the maximum height reached by the object. Let it is H. Using the formula for maximum height reached by the projectile.

H=\dfrac{u^2\sin^2\theta}{2g}\\\\H=\dfrac{(30)^2\times \sin^2(60)}{2\times 9.8}\\\\H=34.43\ m

So, the maximum height reached by the object is 34.43 m.

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.
