Answer:

Solstice usually refers to the condition when there occurs the longest duration of day and night and during this time the north pole of the earth is tilted at the farthest distance from the location of the sun. There are two types of the solstice, namely the summer and the winter solstice.

In the case of the northern hemisphere or the upper half of the equator, the summer solstice usually occurs in June 21st and the winter solstice occurs in December 21st.

The locations on earth where the sunlight is directly incident during the time of summer solstice are the regions lying in the tropic of cancer namely, India, Mexico, the southern portion of China and the Bahamas.

A 6.9 kg object is suspended by a string from the ceiling of an elevator. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Determine t
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Tension, T = 87.63  N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the object, m = 6.9 kg

The string is acting in the upward direction, a = 2.9 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

As the lift is accelerating upwards, it means the net force acting on it is given by :

T = m(a+g)

= 6.9 (2.9+9.8)

= 6.9(2.7)

= 87.63  N

So, the tension in the string is 87.63  N.

Choose the sources of gamma rays. Check all that apply.
harina [27]

Answer:

a. Stars all warm objects

c. Some unstable atomic nuclei

Explanation:

Gamma rays are photons of very high energy (beyond 100keV) enough to remove an electron from its orbit.

They have a very short wavelength, less than 5 meters from the peak, and can be produced by nuclear decay, especially in the breasts of massive stars at the end of life.

They were discovered by the French chemist Paul Villard (1860 to 1934).

While X-rays are produced by electronic transitions in general caused by the collision of an electron with an atom at high speed, gamma rays are produced by nuclear transitions.

 Gamma rays produce damage similar to those caused by X-rays or ultraviolet rays (burns, cancer and genetic mutations).

The sources of gamma rays that we observe in the universe come from <u>massive stars (hypernovas) or some warm objects on the space</u> that end their lives by a gravitational collapse that leads to the formation of a neutron star or a black hole, as well as <u>unstable radioactive nuclei </u>that emit radiation gamma to reach its steady state.
