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.

Spitting cobras can defend themselves by squeezing muscles around their venom glands to squirt venom at an attacker. Suppose a s
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: 1.289 m

Explanation:

The path the cobra's venom follows since it is spitted until it hits the ground, is described by a parabola. Hence, the equations for parabolic motion (which has two components) can be applied to solve this problem:

<u>x-component: </u>

x=V_{o}cos\theta t  (1)

Where:

x is the horizontal distance traveled by the venom

V_{o}=3.10 m/s is the venom's initial speed

\theta=47\° is the angle

t is the time since the venom is spitted until it hits the ground

<u>y-component: </u>

y=y_{o}+V_{o}sin\theta t+\frac{gt^{2}}{2}   (2)

Where:

y_{o}=0.44 m  is the initial height of the venom

y=0  is the final height of the venom (when it finally hits the ground)

g=-9.8m/s^{2}  is the acceleration due gravity

Let's begin with (2) to find the time it takes the complete path:

0=0.44 m+3.10 m/s sin\theta(47\°)+\frac{-9.8m/s^{2} t^{2}}{2}   (3)

Rewritting (3):

-4.9 m/s^{2} t^{2} + 2.267 m/s t + 0.44 m=0   (4)

This is a quadratic equation (also called equation of the second degree) of the form at^{2}+bt+c=0, which can be solved with the following formula:

t=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a} (5)

Where:

a=-4.9 m/s^{2

b=2.267 m/s

c=0.44 m

Substituting the known values:

t=\frac{-2.267 \pm \sqrt{2.267^{2}-4(-4.9)(0.44)}}{2(-4.9)} (6)

Solving (6) we find the positive result is:

t=0.609 s (7)

Substituting (7) in (1):

x=(3.10 m/s)cos(47\°)(0.609 s)  (8)

We finally find the horizontal distance traveled by the venom:

x=1.289 m

The potential energy of a catapult was completely converted into kinetic energy by releasing a small stone with a mass of 20 gra
DerKrebs [107]

1,000 grams = 1 kilogram
20 grams = 0.02 kilogram

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) x (speed)²
