Answer:

the doppler technique

Explanation:

The doppler technique was an indirect method for finding extrasolar planets and brown dwarfs from radial-velocity measurements using observation of Doppler shifts in the spectrum of the planet's parent star.

Answer:

A Transits

B Doppler technique

Explanation:

The techniques used for the location of extra solar planets are both transit method and the Doppler technique. Extra solar planets are those that orbit a star other than the Sun of our solar system.

Transit method uses the method of measuring light curve from the stars and the reduction of the brightness over time is noted. This is an indirect method.

Doppler technique is a much more reliable method to discover exoplanets. It is also called wobble method. This is much more reliable to detect exoplanets. When there is no exoplanet for a given star, the Doppler shift pattern does not change. If exoplanet exists, it changes.

k0ka [10]

The formula is Force = coefficient of friction times the weight or normal force (in newtons). Plug the numbers in the formula. Do the simple division math. The coefficient of friction should be any number between 0 and 1. If your answer is smaller than 0 or greater than 1, go back and check your work. The answer for this question is C. 0.38

A gas is compressed in a cylinder from a volume of 20.0 l to 2.0 l by a constant pressure of 10.0 atm. calculate the amount of w

jok3333 [9.3K]

First, we need to convert the pressure in SI units. Keeping in mind that $1 atm = 1.01 \cdot 10^5 Pa$ :
$p=10.0 atm =1.01 \cdot 10^6 Pa$

The initial and final volume of the gas are (keeping in mind that $1.0 L = 0.001 m^3$ ):
$V_i = 20.0 L=0.020 m^3$
$V_f = 2.0 L=0.002 m^3$

So, the work done on the gas by the surrounding is
$W= -p \Delta V=-p(V_f-V_i)=-(1.01 \cdot 10^6 Pa)(0.002 m^3-0.020 m^3)=18180 J$
And the final positive sign means that this work corresponds to an increase in internal energy of the gas.
