Universe contains billions and billions of stars, galaxies, planets, asteroids, comets and many more different type of bodies. These objects emit radiations of varied frequency. In order to study these different kind of objects, different kind of technology is required. There are different type of missions: some contain probes which land on the surface, some orbit the bodies etc. These are for solar system. Yet some are space observatories having detectors to study light from distant objects. Further, there are different detectors for different wavelengths of electromagnetic spectrum.

Answer:

The technology uses devices and concepts related to optics,  spectroscopy, communication . biotechnology etc in order to study the cosmos, by the astronomers .

Explanation:

To land on the planets like Mars or on to the moon, space shuttles are used. Basic laws of motion are technologically applied for the landing of a space shuttle. Optical instruments are used to record and take photos of various regions and communication technology is widely and efficiently applied to transfer the data back to earth, from the devices used. Spectrometer is used to study and analyse the light . Biological study is necessary to understand the possibility of life beyond the earth. Like this , in all its aspects, astronomers apply the principles and concepts via technology as well to study the universe and also the various planets, stars , atmosphere beyond the earth.

A(n) 55.5 g ball is dropped from a height of 53.6 cm above a spring of negligible mass. The ball compresses the spring to a maxi
Serggg [28]

Answer:

The spring force constant is  k=243\ \frac{N}{m} .

Explanation:

We are told the mass of the ball is m=0.0555\ kg, the height above the spring where the ball is dropped is h=0.536\ m,  the length the ball compresses the spring is d=0.04897\ m and the acceleration of gravity is 9.8\ \frac{m}{s^{2}} .

We will consider the initial moment to be when the ball is dropped and the final moment to be when the ball stops, compressing the spring. We supose that there is no friction so the initial mechanical energy E_{mi} is equal to the final mechanical energy E_{mf} :

                                                    E_{mf}=E_{mi}

Initially there is only gravitational potential energy because the force of the spring isn't present and the speed is zero. In the final moment there is only elastic potential energy because the height is zero and the ball has stopped. So we have that:

                                                   \frac{1}{2}kd^{2}=mgh

If we manipulate the equation we have that:

                                                    k=\frac{2mgh}{d^{2} }

                                         k=\frac{2\ 0.0555\ kg\ 9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}\ 0.536\ m}{(0.04897)^{2}m^{2}}

                                              k=\frac{0.58306\ \frac{kgm^{2}}{s^{2}}}{2.398x10^{-3}m^{2}}

                                                     k=243\ \frac{N}{m}

A fuse in an electric circuit is a wire that is designed to melt, and thereby open the circuit, if the current exceeds a predete
zmey [24]

Answer:

The diameter of wire should be 4.04 \times 10^{-4} m

Explanation:

Given:

Current density J = 500 \times 10^{4} \frac{A}{m^{2} }

Current I = 0.64 A

From the formula of current density,

  J = \frac{I}{A}

Where A = area of cylindrical wire = \pi r^{2}

  \pi r^{2} = \frac{I}{J}

  r^{2} = \frac{I}{\pi J }

   r = \sqrt{\frac{0.64}{3.14 \times 500 \times 10^{4} } }

   r = 2.02 \times 10^{-4}m

For finding the diameter of wire,

   d = 2r

   d = 4.04 \times 10^{-4}m

Therefore, the diameter of wire should be 4.04 \times 10^{-4} m

Question #6a) You were told to assume that the ball bounced to a height of 1.2 m and that the distance between the bounces measu
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

In the problem they give the case of a ball that bounces on the vertical axis the height is getting smaller, on the x axis it is the same distance all the time.

Questions about the aspect of the x-axis

- Since the distance traveled between the rebounds is the same, the speed must be the same or constant throughout the entire journey.

- Since the distance and speed are equal, the time between rebounds is the same

- There can be no acceleration because the bounce gap should change, the acceleration is zero all the time

Questions about the Y axis

- The vertical speed of the first boat would be the greatest of all, so it has the highest height

b) Evidence or not Evidence

1  evidence, because the graphs are different, one is a straight line and he gives a parable

2 no evidence, nothing involved on the x axis

3  no evidence, the acceleration on the y axis is independent of the acceleration on the x axis

4  no evidence, the time that is cast is the only change that is the same for both movements

5  evidence, the fact that no mixture of components is found allows the variable to be separated into different equations

6  no evidence, says nothing about the x-axis

A person weighing 645 N climbs up a ladder to a height of 4.55 m what is the increase in gravitational energy
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer: 2934.75 Joules

Explanation:

Potential energy can be defined as energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

<em>P.E = mgh</em>

Where P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per second square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

Given the following data;

Weight =645

Height = 4.55

<em>P.E = mgh</em>

But we know that weight = mg = 645N

Substituting into the equation, we have;

<em>P.E = 645 • 4.55</em>

<em>P.E = 2934.75J</em>

Potential energy, P.E = 2934.75 Joules.
