Answer: By Doppler effect

Explanation:

The spectrum of the objects in the universe such as stars and galaxies is taken and studied. The apparent change in the frequency/wavelength of the light suggests the motion of these objects.

If the apparent frequency is greater, the light would be blue -shifted which means it is moving towards Earth and if it is red shifted, it would be moving away from the earth. This is apparent change in observed frequency is known as Doppler's effect which studied to determine the motion of objects in the universe.

What is a good scientific question on a baloon powered car? (it's for my science fair)
Salsk061 [2.6K]

<u>Answer: </u>

Balloon powered car works on the principle of Newtons III law. Escaping air from the balloon, the car accelerates forward. The reaction is the air behind the car, pushing against it, and with the same force car moves forward is the action.

<em>Some scientific questions are:</em>

1. What is the energy stored in the balloon?

Ans: Potential energy (Potential energy is stored in elastic balloon)

2. Which energy is used in balloon-powered car?

Ans: Kinetic energy. (Whenever the balloon escapes the air, potential energy is converted into Kinetic energy)

3. What is the principle involved in balloon powered car?

Ans: Newtons III law.

Is momentum proportional or inversely proportional to mass?
aivan3 [116]

Answer:In terms of an equation, the momentum of an object is equal to the mass of the object times the velocity of the object. where m is the mass and v is the velocity. The equation illustrates that momentum is directly proportional to an object's mass and directly proportional to the object's velocity.

Prove that acceleration due to gravity is independent to the mass of falling object.<br>​
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

The value of acceleration due to gravity is independent of mass of the body.

Explanation:

Let us consider the mass of the object as m and mass of earth as M

Therefore, force between the object and earth would be given by: F = GMm/d²

This force is equal to the weight of the object, i.e. mg

Thus;

mg = GMm/d²

g = GM/d²

Therefore, the value of acceleration due to gravity is independent of mass of the body.

You are approaching a railroad crossing with no warning devices and are unable to see 400 feet down the tracks in one direction.
azamat

Answer: The speed limit is 15 mph when you come within 100 feet of a railroad crossing and you cannot see the tracks for 400 feet in both directions. You may go faster than 15 mph if the crossing is controlled by gates, a warning signal, or a flagman.

Explanation: hope this helps
