How did ALS impact Stephen Hawking?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Professor Hawking had just turned 21 when he was diagnosed with a very rare slow-progressing form of ALS, a form of motor neurone disease (MND). He was at the end of his time at Oxford when he started to notice early signs of his disease. He was getting more clumsy and fell over several times without knowing why.

An egg is thrown upward with a velocity of 4.5 m/s. How long will it take to reach it's maximum height?
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

0.45 seconds

Explanation:

Letting the value of g = 10 m/s/s

final velocity (v) = 0 m/s (since the egg will come to rest at the maximum height)

initial velocity(u) = 4.5 m/s

acceleration = -10 m/s/s (since the gravity is acting against the egg)

time = t seconds

From the first equation of motion:

<em>v = u + at</em>

<em>0 = 4.5 + (-10)t</em>

<em>t = -4.5 / -10</em>

t = 0.45 seconds

Monochromatic light of wavelength λ=136.8μ m is shone at normal incidence through a thin film of thickness t resting atop a full
inn [45]

Answer:

1.8 × 10⁻⁸ Hm

Explanation:

Given that:

The refractive index of the film = 19

The wavelength of the light = 136.8 μ m

The thickness can be calculated by using the formula shown below as:

Thickness=\frac {\lambda}{4\times n}

Where, n is the refractive index of the film

{\lambda} is the wavelength

So, thickness is:

Thickness=\frac {136.8\ \mu\ m}{4\times 19}

Thickness = 1.8 μ m

Since,

1 μ m = 10⁻⁸ Hm

So,

Thickness = 1.8 × 10⁻⁸ Hm

How do scientists use the Doppler effect to understand the universe?
professor190 [17]
There's a very subtle thing going on here, one that could blow your mind.

Wherever we look in the universe, no matter what direction we look,
we see the light from distant galaxies arriving at our telescopes with
longer wavelengths than the light SHOULD have.

The only way we know of right now that can cause light waves to get
longer after they leave the source is motion of the source away from
the observer. The lengthening of the waves on account of that motion
is called the Doppler effect.  (The answer to the question is choice-c.)

But that may not be the only way that light waves can get stretched.  It's
the only way we know of so far, and so we say that the distant galaxies
are all moving away from us. 

From that, we say the whole universe is expanding, and that right there is
one of the strongest observations that we explain with the Big Bang theory
of creation.

Now:  If ... say tomorrow ... a competent Physicist discovers another way
for light waves to get stretched after they leave the source, then the whole
"expanding universe" idea is out the window, and probably the Big Bang
theory along with it !


Now that our mind has been blown, come back down to Earth with me,
and I'll give you something else to think about:

It's true that when we look at distant galaxies, we do see their light
arriving in our telescopes with longer wavelengths than it should have.
And then we use the Doppler effect to calculate how fast that galaxy
is moving away from us.  That's all true.  Astronomers are doing it
every day.                                   I mean every night.

So here's the question for you to think about ... maybe even READ about:

When the light from a distant galaxy pours into our telescope, and we
look at it, and we measure its wavelength, and we find that the wavelength
is longer than it should be ... how do we know what it should be ? ? ?
