What is Astronomy , planets and stars

Physics

Answer:

Astronomy is a natural science that studies celestial objects and phenomena which uses maths physics and chemistry in order to explain their origin and evolution. Planets and stars are linked with astronomy.

Planets are large natural objects that orbit, or travel around, stars.  A planet must do three things: it must orbit a star, it must be big enough to have enough gravity to force a spherical shape, and it must be big enough that its gravity cleared away any objects of a similar size near its orbit.

A star is an astronomical object consisting of a luminous spheroid of plasma held together by its own gravity. Represents the most fundamental building blocks of galaxies. Stars form within amorphous clouds of gas and dust called nebulae.

Answer:

Astronomy (from Greek: ἀστρονομία) is a natural science that studies celestial objects and phenomena. It uses mathematics, physics, and chemistry in order to explain their origin and evolution. Objects of interest include planets, moons, stars, nebulae, galaxies, and comets.

A planet is an astronomical body orbiting a star or stellar remnant that is massive enough to be rounded by its own gravity, is not massive enough to cause thermonuclear fusion, and has cleared its neighbouring region of planetesimals.

A star is an astronomical object consisting of a luminous spheroid of plasma held together by its own gravity. The nearest star to Earth is the Sun.

An object is dropped from a platform 100 feet high. Ignoring wind resistance, what will its speed be when it reaches the ground?

You push a disk-shaped platform tangentially on its edge 2.0 m from the axle. The platform starts at rest and has a rotational a
Natali [406]

Answer: 40.84 m

Explanation:

Given

Radius of the disk, r = 2m

Velocity of the disk, v = 7 rad/s

Acceleration of the disk, α = 0.3 rad/s²

Here, we use the formula for kinematics of rotational motion to solve

2α(θ - θ•) = ω² - ω•²

Where,

ω• = 0

ω = v/r = 7/2

ω = 3.5 rad/s

2 * 0.3(θ - θ•) = 3.5² - 0

0.6(θ - θ•) = 12.25

(θ - θ•) = 12.25 / 0.6

(θ - θ•) = 20.42 rad

Since we have both the angle and it's radius, we can calculate the arc length

s = rθ = 2 * 20.42

s = 40.84 m

Thus, the needed distance is 40.84 m

The shortest wavelengths that we can see are experienced as what colors?
astra-53 [7]
If you think about the colors of the rainbow red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.  That list of colors shows you the spectrum of visible light and the further right (towards violet) you go the more energy the waves have while the more left (towards red) you go the less energy the waves have.  wavelength and energy are inversely proportional meaning that as energy goes up, wavelength goes down.  therefore the more right (towards violet) you move in the spectrum, the smaller the wavelengths get.
