What is the temperature of a star (in Kelvin) if its peak wavelength is 150 nm (that is, 150 x 10^-9 m)?

Answer:

19320 K

Explanation:

The temperature of a star is related to its peak wavelength by Wien's displacement law:

T=\frac{b}{\lambda}

where

T is the absolute temperature at the star's surface

b=2.898 \cdot 10^{-3}m\cdot K is Wien's displacement constant

\lambda is the peak wavelength

Here we have

\lambda=150 nm = 150\cdot 10^{-9}nm

Substituting into the equation, we find

T=\frac{2.898\cdot 10^{-3}}{150\cdot 10^{-9}}=19320 K

Which of these is a mixture?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Air is a mixture.

Explanation:

Air is a homogeneous mixture. It is made up of gaseous substances such as nitrogen, oxygen, and smaller amounts of others.

Carbon dioxide is a pure substance, not a mixture.

Carbon is another pure substance, it cannot be separated into other substances.

Oxygen is just oxygen, it does not contain any other substance.

A box is pulled up a rough ramp that makes an angle of 22 degrees with the horizontal surface. The surface of the ramp is the x-
kifflom [539]

Magnitude of the force  of tension: 139 N

Explanation:

The surface of the ramp here is assumed to be the positive x-direction.

To solve this problem and find the magnitude of the force of tension, we have to analyze only the situation along the x-direction, since the force of tension lie in this direction.

There are three forces acting along the x-direction:

  • The force of tension, F_T, acting up along the plane
  • The force of friction, F_f=14.8 N, acting down along the plane
  • The component of the weight in the x-direction, F_{gx}, acting down along the plane

We know that the magnitude of the weight is

F_g=70.0 N

So its x-component is

F_{gx}=F_g sin \theta =(70.0)(sin 22^{\circ})=26.2 N

The net force along the x-direction can be written as

F_x = F_T-F_f-F_{gx}

And therefore, since the net force is 98 N, we can find the magnitude of the force of tension:

F_T=F_x+F_f+F_{gx}=98+14.8+26.2=139 N
