Answer:

Well, the options are not given in the questions. But the correct option is:

"Gamma rays do not completely penetrate earth atmosphere."

Explanation:

Most of the gamma rays coming from the stars and sun can not penetrate the earth's atmosphere because atmosphere is as thick to the gamma rays as a 12 foot thick plate of aluminium. They rather absorb in the atmosphere and knock out electrons by reacting with the atoms and produce ions and electrons.  These secondary ions and electrons then came to earth during rain fall. Due to this reason gamma ray telescope was not get funded for the study of black holes.

Answer:

Option C = Gamma rays don't completely penetrate Earth's atmosphere.

Explanation:

A telescope is a scientific and engineering instrument or apparatus which has the characteristics of making small objects to turn to big objects when been viewed with the telescope. Like the one used by a federal body known as the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA), the gamma ray telescope is use in the detection of radiation.

Another term we are going to check in this question is the Gamma rays. Gamma rays is an Electromagnetic radiation which has high energy and they also short wavelength.

A gamma ray telescope located in Antarctica that is to be used to look for evidence of black holes in the centers of galaxies would not get funded because of option "c" which says that Gamma rays don't completely penetrate Earth's atmosphere.

Explain the relationship between electrical charge and force.
Radda [10]
The relationship between electrical and charge force is that electrical force strengthens and increases the energy pulses and reflects off an object and makes the force about two times greater with charge.

A 0.105- kg hockey puck moving at 24 m/s is caught and held by a 75-kg goalie at rest. With what speed does the goalie slide on
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

<u><em>0.03 m/s</em></u>

Explanation:

<em>Applying law of conservation of momentum, </em>

  • <em>m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v</em>
  • <em>0.105(24) + 75(0) = (0.105 + 75)v</em>
  • <em>75.105v = 2.52</em>
  • <em>v = 2.52/75.105</em>
  • <em>v = </em><u><em>0.03 m/s</em></u>

Why does an energy transfer not always result in phase change?
mash [69]

Answer:

These energy exchanges are not changes in kinetic energy. They are changes in bonding energy between the molecules. "If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance

Compare and contrast potential and kinetic energy
inysia [295]
Kinetic and Potential Energy HistoryA roller coaster train going down hill represents merely a complex case as a body is descending an inclined plane. Newton's first two laws relate force and acceleration, which are key concepts in roller coaster physics. At amusement parks, Newton's laws can be applied to every ride. These rides range from 'The Swings' to The 'Hammer'. Newton was also one of the developers of calculus which is essential to analyzing falling bodies constrained on more complex paths than inclined planes. A roller coaster rider is in an gravitational field except with the Principle of Equivalence.Potential EnergyPotential energy is the same as stored energy. The "stored" energy is held within the gravitational field. When you lift a heavy object you exert energy which later will become kinetic energy when the object is dropped. A lift motor from a roller coaster exerts potential energy when lifting the train to the top of the hill. The higher the train is lifted by the motor the more potential energy is produced; thus, forming a greater amount if kinetic energy when the train is dropped. At the top of the hills the train has a huge amount of potential energy, but it <span>has very little kinetic energy.Kinetic Energy The word "kinetic" is derived from the Greek word meaning to move, and the word "energy" is the ability to move. Thus, "kinetic energy" is the energy of motion --it's ability to do work. The faster the body moves the more kinetic energy is produced. The greater the mass and speed of an object the more kinetic energy there will be. Hope this helped:))))</span>

A weightlifter exerts an upward force on a 1000-N barbell and holds it at a height of 1 meter for 2 seconds. Approximately how m
Alex73 [517]

Amount of work done is zero and so power = 0 watts.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Power is the rate at which work is done, or W divided by delta t. Since the barbell is not moving, the weightlifter is not doing work on the barbell.Therefore, if the work done is zero, then the power is also zero.It may seem unusual that the data given in question is versatile i.e. A weightlifter exerts an upward force on a 1000-N barbell and holds it at a height of 1 meter for 2 seconds. But, still the answer is zero watts , this was a tricky question although conceptual basis of question was good! Power is dependent on amount of work done which is further related to displacement and here the net displacement is zero ! Hence, amount of work done is zero and so power = 0 watts.
