Explanation:

Polaris also called North star is the brightest star in the the constellation Ursa Minor. It remains stationary whereas entire north sky move around it. It the point of north celestial pole.

A) False. This is because All of the stars move in a counterclockwise path around Polaris.

B) False. Reason stated above.

C) True, As the stars move towards the Polaris there orbital radius decreases as they move smaller circles.

D) False, As the stars move towards the Polaris there orbital radius decreases as they move smaller circles.

E) True.

F) False.

Complete Question

A ball having mass 2 kg is connected by a string of length 2 m to a pivot point and held in place in a vertical position. A constant wind force of magnitude 13.2 N blows from left to right. Pivot Pivot F F (a) (b) H m m L L If the mass is released from the vertical position, what maximum height above its initial position will it attain? Assume that the string does not break in the process. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . Answer in units of m.What will be the equilibrium height of the mass?

Answer:

$H_m=1.65m$

$H_E=1.16307m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Mass of ball $M=2kg$

Length of string $L= 2m$

Wind force $F=13.2N$

Generally the equation for $\angle \theta$ is mathematically given as

$tan\theta=\frac{F}{mg}$

$\theta=tan^-^1\frac{F}{mg}$

$\theta=tan^-^1\frac{13.2}{2*2}$

$\theta=73.14\textdegree$

Max angle = $2*\theta= 2*73.14=>146.28\textdegree$

Generally the equation for max Height $H_m$ is mathematically given as

$H_m=L(1-cos146.28)$

$H_m=0.9(1+0.8318)$

$H_m=1.65m$

Generally the equation for Equilibrium Height $H_E$ is mathematically given as

$H_E=L(1-cos73.14)$

$H_E=0.9(1+0.2923)$

$H_E=1.16307m$

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

1.97 * 10^8 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

n = 1.52

Recall : speed of light (c) = 3 * 10^8 m/s

Speed (v) of light in glass:

v = speed of light / n

v = (3 * 10^8) / 1.52

v = 1.9736 * 10^8

Hence, speed of light in glass :

v = 1.97 * 10^8 m/s

shutvik [7]

Answer:

c) The wavelength decreases but the frequency remains the same.

Explanation:

Light travels at different speed in different mediums.

Refractive index is equal to velocity of the light 'c' in empty space divided by the velocity 'v' in the substance.

Or ,

n = c/v.

The frequency of the light does not change but the wavelength of the light changes with change in the speed.

c = frequency × Wavelength

Frequency is constant,

The formula can be written as:

n = λ / λn.

Where,

λn is the wavelength in the medium

λ is the wavelength in vacuum

When the light travels to glass, it speed slows down and also the wavelength decreases as both are directly proportional. There will be no effect on frequency.

How will the gravitational force on a piece of the surface of the star (m1) by the mass of the rest of the star (m2) (effectivel

kiruha [24]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Gravitational force is a force that attracts two bodies (with a mass) towards each other. If an object has a higher mass, the gravitational pull will be greater.

According to Newton’s inverse square law:

"The gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between two bodies."

About this question, the greater the distance between two gravitating bodies, the weaker is the gravitational force between them.
