It's a speed.    Other ways to describe it are:

8 meters per second 

roughly 0.0556 meter per hour

roughly 0.000035 mile per hour

A star is moving away from an observer at 1% of the speed of light. At what wavelength would the observer find an emission line
Ivan

Answer:

  λ = 5940 Angstroms

Explanation:

This is an exercise of the relativistic Doppler effect

        f’= f  √((1- v / c) / (1 + v / c))

Where the speed in between the strr and the observer is positive if they move away

Let's use the relationship

         c = λ f

         f = c /λ

We replace

              c /λ’ = c /λ  √ ((1- v / c) / (1 + v / c))

              λ = λ’ √ ((1- v / c) / (1 + v / c))

Let's calculate

             v = 0.01 c

             v = 0.01 3 10⁸

             v=  3 10⁶ m / s

             λ = 6000 √ [(1- 3 10⁶/3 10⁸) / (1+ 3 10⁶/3 10⁸)]

             λ = 6000 √ [0.99 / 1.01]

             λ = 5940 Angstroms

Describe the pattern of air circulation between an area of low pressure and high pressure
lakkis [162]
The sinking of cold air creates regions of high pressure and this air travels to lower pressure regions produced by the rising motion of warm air. This process results in air circulation.

A railroad freight car rolls on a track at 3.50 m/s toward two identical coupled freight cars, which are rolling in the same dir
ladessa [460]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello! To solve this problem we must be clear about the concept of energy conservation, and kinetic energy with the following sentence

The kinetic energy of the two cars (v = 1.2m / S) plus the kinetic energy of the third car (v = 3.5m / S) must be equal to the kinetic energy of the three cars together.

The kinetic energy is calculated by the following equation.

E=0.5mV^2

m= mass of the cars=26500kg

V=speed

E=kinetic energy

taking into account the above, the following equation is inferred

1=  the cars are separated

2= the cars are togheter

E1=E2

E1=0.5mV1^2+0.5mV1^2+0.5m(Va)^2

where

m= mass of each car

V1= 1.2m/s

Va=3.5,m/S

E2=0.5(3)(m)V^2

m= mass of each car

V=speed (in m/s) of the three coupled cars after the first couples with the other two

Solving

0.5mV1^2+0.5mV1^2+0.5m(Va)^2=0.5(3)(m)V^2

V1^2+V1^2+(Va)^2=(3)V^2.\\2V1^2+(Va)^2=(3)V^2\\V^2=\frac{2V1^2+(Va)^2}{3} \\

V=\sqrt{\frac{2V1^2+(Va)^2}{3}} \\V=\sqrt{\frac{2(1.2)^2+(3.5)^2}{3}} \\\\V=2.245m/s

the speed  of the three coupled cars after the first couples with the other two is 2.245m/s
