Explain how we can deduce the temperature of a star by determining its color.

Physics

ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Stars are bright and have the ability to emit lights of various wavelength. The color of a star plays a significant role. It helps us in determining its temperature. It ranges from reddish color to a bluish-white color. A red color star indicates that the star is of low temperature, whereas   a bluish-white star indicates that the star is of high temperature.

A cannon, located 60.0 m from the base of a vertical 25.0-m-tall cliff, shoots a 15-kg shell at 43.0o above the horizontal towar
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

a)   v₀ = 32.64 m / s , b)  x = 59.68 m

Explanation:

a) This is a projectile launching exercise, we the distance and height of the cliff

         x = v₀ₓ t

         y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

We look for the components of speed with trigonometry

         sin 43 = v_{oy} / v₀

         cos 43 = v₀ₓ / v₀

         v_{oy} = v₀ sin 43

         v₀ₓ = v₀ cos 43

Let's look for time in the first equation and substitute in the second

         t = x / v₀ cos 43

         y = v₀ sin 43 (x / v₀ cos 43) - ½ g (x / v₀ cos 43)²

          y = x tan 43 - ½ g x² / v₀² cos² 43

          1 / v₀² = (x tan 43 - y) 2 cos² 43 / g x²

           v₀² = g x² / [(x tan 43 –y) 2 cos² 43]

Let's calculate

          v₀² = 9.8 60 2 / [(60 tan 43 - 25) 2 cos 43]

          v₀ = √ (35280 / 33.11)

          v₀ = 32.64 m / s

.b) we use the vertical distance equation with the speed found

         y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

         .y = v₀ sin43 t - ½ g t²

        25 = 32.64 sin 43 t - ½ 9.8 t²

        4.9 t² - 22.26 t + 25 = 0

         t² - 4.54 t + 5.10 = 0

We solve the second degree equation

         t = (4.54 ±√(4.54 2 - 4 5.1)) / 2

         t = (4.54 ± 0.46) / 2

         t₁ = 2.50 s

         t₂ = 2.04 s

The shortest time is when the cliff passes and the longest when it reaches the floor, with this time we look for the horizontal distance traveled

         x = v₀ₓ t

         x = v₀ cos 43 t

         x = 32.64 cos 43  2.50

         x = 59.68 m

A car accelerates at a rate of 13m/s^2[S]. If the car's initial velocity is 120km/h[N]. What will its final velocity be in m/s,
Delvig [45]

Answer:

the final velocity of the car is 59.33 m/s [N]

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration of the car, a = 13 m/s²

initial velocity of the car, u = 120 km/h = 33.33 m/s

duration of the car motion, t = 2 s

The final velocity of the car in the same direction is calculated as follows;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity of the car

v = 33.33 + (13 x 2)

v = 59.33 m/s [N]

Therefore, the final velocity of the car is 59.33 m/s [N]
