Answer:

Color

Explanation:

The most common way of determine the temperature of a star is by studying its spectrum. The light coming from the star is measured in two filters: red and blue. The ratio of the two readings give us the temperature of the stars.

Cooler stars will appear red in color and hotter stars will appear blue.

For a layman if the star is blue it is a hot star and if its red it is a cold star.

Give at least one fact about subatomic particles

victus00 [196]

Answer:

- Particles smaller than atoms are called subatomic particles .

- There are three famous subatomic particles, proton, neutron and electron .

- The study of sub atomic particles are called particle physics

- These particles can be divided as Brayons and Leptons

- These particles are often held together by one of the four fundamental particles ( Weak force, strong force, electromagnetic force, gravitational force).

<h3>What is Electric shock ?</h3>

When a high voltage current flows through the body, electrical shock results. When someone unintentionally touches an electrical source, this typically occurs. Treatment for both internal and exterior burns may be necessary as part of the aftercare.

The nervous system may be impacted by a shock.

The tissue that makes up nerves presents extremely minimal resistance to the flow of an electric charge. Electric shocks that impact nerves can cause pain, tingling, numbness, weakness, or trouble moving a limb. These effects might disappear with time or remain for good.

How to Prevent from Electrical Shocks –

Keep the Appliances Away from Moisture and Water.
Never Connect or Disconnect Under Load.
Be Careful with Capacitors.
Use Insulated Tools.
Turn Off the Power.
Check for Improper or Faulty Wiring.
Fix Extension Cord Problems.

You have a two-wheel trailer that you pull behind your ATV. Two children with a combined mass of 76.2 kg hop on board for a ride

marin [14]

a) The spring constant is 12,103 N/m

b) The mass of the trailer 2,678 kg

c) The frequency of oscillation is 0.478 Hz

d) The time taken for 10 oscillations is 20.9 s

Explanation:

When the two children jumps on board of the trailer, the two springs compresses by a certain amount

$\Delta x = 6.17 cm = 0.0617 m$

Since the system is then in equilibrium, the restoring force of the two-spring system must be equal to the weight of the children, so we can write:

$2mg = k'\Delta x$ (1)

where

m = 76.2 kg is the mass of each children

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

$k'$ is the equivalent spring constant of the 2-spring system

For two springs in parallel each with constant k,

$k'=k+k=2k$

Substituting into (1) and solving for k, we find:

$2mg=2k\Delta x\\k=\frac{mg}{\Delta x}=\frac{(76.2)(9.8)}{0.0617}=12,103 N/m$

The period of the oscillating system is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k'}}$

where

And for the system in the problem, we know that

T = 2.09 s is the period of oscillation

m is the mass of the trailer

$k'=2k=2(12,103)=24,206 N/m$ is the equivalent spring constant of the system

Solving the equation for m, we find the mass of the trailer:

$m=(\frac{T}{2\pi})^2 k'=(\frac{2.09}{2\pi})^2 (24,206)=2,678 kg$

The frequency of oscillation of a spring-mass system is equal to the reciprocal of the period, therefore:

$f=\frac{1}{T}$

where

f is the frequency

T is the period

In this problem, we have

T = 2.09 s is the period

Therefore, the frequency of oscillation is

$f=\frac{1}{2.09}=0.478 Hz$

The period of the system is

T = 2.09 s

And this time is the time it takes for the trailer to complete one oscillation.

In this case, we want to find the time it takes for the trailer to complete 10 oscillations (bouncing up and down 10 times). Therefore, the time taken will be the period of oscillation multiplied by 10.

Therefore, the time needed for 10 oscillations is:

$t=10T=10(2.09)=20.9 s$

Proposed Exercise - Circular Movement

notka56 [123]

Answer:

ωB = 300 rad/s

ωC = 600 rad/s

Explanation:

The linear velocity of the belt is the same at pulley A as it is at pulley D.

vA = vD

ωA rA = ωD rD

ωD = (rA / rD) ωA

Pulley B has the same angular velocity as pulley D.

ωB = ωD

The linear velocity of the belt is the same at pulley B as it is at pulley C.

vB = vC

ωB rB = ωC rC

ωC = (rB / rC) ωB

Given:

ω₀A = 40 rad/s

αA = 20 rad/s²

t = 3 s

Find: ωA

ω = αt + ω₀

ωA = (20 rad/s²) (3 s) + 40 rad/s

ωA = 100 rad/s

ωD = (rA / rD) ωA = (75 mm / 25 mm) (100 rad/s) = 300 rad/s

ωB = ωD = 300 rad/s

ωC = (rB / rC) ωB = (100 mm / 50 mm) (300 rad/s) = 600 rad/s
