Answer:

Options:

(B) Gravitational waves are predicted to travel through space at the speed of light

D) The first direct detection of gravitational waves came in 2015

(E) The existence of gravitational waves is predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity

Explanation:

Gravitational waves are invisible and very fast ripples that take place in space. The waves have speeds of 186  000 miles per second. This is the equivalent speed of light. These waves are so powerful that they squeeze anything that falls in their pathway. These waves are caused by the acceleration of mass. The accelerating mass sends energy through the gravitational field just the same way that accelerating charges send energy waves through electromagnetic fields.

The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory operated by Caltech and MIT in the US was the first entity to officially detected gravitational waves on September 14, 2015.

Explanation :

The points regarding the gravitational waves are as follows :

(1) Gravitational waves are predicted to travel through space at the speed of light. So, the speed of gravitational waves is also equals c=3\times 10^8\ m/s.

(2) The first direct detection of gravitational waves came in 2015. It is detected using a advanced LIGO detectors.

(3) The existence of gravitational waves is predicted by Einstein's general theory of relativity.

Hence, the correct options are (B), (D) and (E).

Why are the wheels on a roller coaster hot after a ride. (I know it’s due to friction but I need more of a detailed answer).
telo118 [61]
2 someone's glasses could fall of because of the inertia
roller coaster is in motion but your glasses are opposing and resisting that motion due to inertia....

1 there is a possibility that electrons move from wheels to the rail and vice versa which also means that it is producing some kind of electrical energy

Inside a television picture tube there is a build-up of electrons (charge of 1.602 × 10^–19 C) with an average spacing of 38.0 n
Brut [27]
The magnitude of electric field is produced by the electrons at a certain distance.

E = kQ/r²

where: 
E = electric field produced
Q = charge
r = distance
k = Coulomb Law constant 9 x10^9<span> N. m</span>2<span> / C</span><span>2

Given are the following:
Q = </span><span>1.602 × 10^–19 C
</span><span>r = 38 x 10^-9 m

Substitue the given:
E = </span>\frac{( 1.602 x 10^{-19} )( 9.0x10_{9} )}{(38x10^{-9}) ^{2} }

E = 998.476 kN/C
