A loess is...

<em>A clastic, silt-sized sediment that is formed by the accumulation of wind-blown dust. 10% of the earth's area is covered by loess or similar deposits. </em>

A distant galaxy emits light that has a wavelength of 434.1 nm. On earth, the wavelength of this light is measured to be 438.6 n
maksim [4K]

Answer:

A) receding from the earth

B) 3.078x10^6m/s

Explanation:

  • A) receding from the earth

The wavelength went from 434.1nm to 438.6nm, there was an increase in wavelength (also knowecn as redshift due to the doppler efft), this increase is due to the fact that the source that emits the radiation (the distant galaxy) is moving away and therefore the light waves it emits are "stretched", causing us to see a wavelength greater than the original.

  • B) 3.078x10^6m/s

to calculate the relative speed we use the following formula:

v_{rel}=c(1-\frac{\lambda_{1}}{\lambda_{2}} )

where c is the speed of light: c=3x10^8m/s

\lambda_{1} is the wavelength emited by the source, and

\lambda_{2} is the wavelength measured on earth.

we substitute all the values and do the calculations:

v_{rel}=(3x10^8m/s)(1-\frac{434.1nm}{438.6nm} )\\\\v_{rel}=(3x10^8m/s)(1-0.98974)\\\\v_{rel}=(3x10^8m/s)(0.01026)\\\\v_{rel}=3.078x10^6m/s

the relative speed is: 3.078x10^6m/s

Describe the relationship between temperature and energy
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

The Temperature is the measure of Average Kinetic Energy  of the molecule in the substance.

Temperature and Kinetic Energy of molecules are related by the equation

= \frac{3}{2} kT

Where

<E> denotes average kinetic energy

k - Boltzmann constant

T - Temperature of the substance

Explanation:

The energy inside the substance is characterised by translational and vibrational motion.

The molecules in a substance have a range of kinetic energies because they don't all move at the same speed. As a substance absorbs heat the particles move faster so the average kinetic energy and therefore the temperature increases.

As the molecules of a substance vibrate faster their temperature increases.

Thus an increase energy corresponds to an increase in temperature

<E> α T (α denotes proportionality)

= \frac{3}{2} kT
