Which of the following cannot be determined from the spectrum of a star?

1 answer:

4 0

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above would be the last option. It is the chemicals in the core of the star that cannot be determined from the spectrum of a star. Spectrum shows the different classification of the stars depending on their spectral characteristics. It usually involves the light, the wavelength and the distance.

A charged particle enters into a uniform magnetic field such that its velocity vector is perpendicular to the magnetic field vec

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The charged particle will follow a circular path.

Explanation:

The magnetic force exerted on the charged particle due to the magnetic field is given by:

$F=qvB sin \theta$

where

q is the charge

v is the velocity of the particle

B is the magnetic field

$\theta$ is the angle between v and B

In this problem, the velocity is perpendicular to the magnetic field, so $\theta = 90^{\circ}, sin \theta=1$ and the force is simply

$F=qvB$

Moreover, the force is perpendicular to both B and v, according to the right-hand rule. Therefore, we have:

- a force that is always perpendicular to the velocity, v

- a force which is constant in magnitude (because the magnitude of v or B does not change)

--> this means that the force acts as a centripetal force, so it will keep the charged particle in a uniform circular motion. So, the correct answer is

The charged particle will follow a circular path.

A clam dropped by a seagull takes 3.0 seconds to hit the ground. What is the seagull's approximate height above the ground at th

ankoles [38]

<h2>The seagull's approximate height above the ground at the time the clam was dropped is 4 m</h2>

Explanation:

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

Acceleration, a = 9.81 m/s²

Time, t = 3 s

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

s = 0 x 3 + 0.5 x 9.81 x 3²

s = 44.145 m

The seagull's approximate height above the ground at the time the clam was dropped is 4 m

A 300 kg box rests on a platform attached to a forklift shown. Starting from rest at time t = 0 seconds, the box is lowered with

Tasya [4]

Answer:

N = 2490 N

Explanation:

Determine the upward force exerted by the horizontal platform on the box as it is lowered.

It is given that,

Mass of a box, m = 300 kg

Starting from rest at time t = 0 seconds, the box is lowered with a downward acceleration of 1.5 m/s².

It is assumed to find the upward force exerted by the horizontal platform on the box. It is given by :

mg-N=ma

$N=m(g-a)\\\\N=300\left(9.8-1.5\right)\\\\N=2490\ N$

So, the normal force is 2490 N.
