Answer: we can conclude that the wavelength is decreasing. This means that the star is moving towards the observer on earth.

Explanation:

Since light has a constant speed of 3 x 10^8m/s, and this speed is a product of its wavelength and its frequency c = f¥

Where f is the frequency and ¥ is the wavelnght.

For a decreasing wavelength, it is seen that the frequency is increasing.

According to the doppler's effect, a moving body that is a source of a wave of frequency f, moving relatively towards an observer, the frequency will increase as they move closer to a frequency f' which is greater than f. This is known as the doppler shift of light wave.

Answer:

It means that the star is moving towards us.

Explanation:

The star is moving toward us; shift to a shorter wavelength. A shorter wavelength means a shift to the blue end of the spectrum (a blueshift) so that the object is moving toward us.

The emf is induced in the wire will be 1.56 ×10 ⁻³ V. The induced emf is the product of the magnetic field,velocity and length of the wire.

<h3>What is induced emf?</h3>

Emf is the production of a potential difference in a coil as a result of changes in the magnetic flux passing through it.

When the flux coupling with a conductor or coil changes, electromotive Force, or EMF, is said to be induced.

The given data in the problem is;

B is the magnitude of the magnetic field,= 5.0 ×10⁻⁵ T

V(velocity)=125 M/SEC

L(length)=25 cm=0.25 m

The maximum emf is found as;

E=VBLsin90°

E=125 × 5.0 × 10⁻⁵ ×0.25

E=1.56 ×10 ⁻³ V

Hence, the emf is induced in the wire will be 1.56 ×10 ⁻³ V

Transform boundaries are classified under which type of fault?
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Strike-slip fault

Explanation:

Transform boundaries play the role of connecting the other plate boundary segments.

When the plates are rubbed against each other, they result in enormous amount of stresses which leads to the breaking of the part of a rock causing earthquakes. Places of occurrence of these breaks are termed as faults.

Strike slip faults results from compression which takes place horizontally, but but in this the rock displacement  releases energy and takes place in a horizontal direction which is parallel to the force of compression.

5) Find the initial velocity for a 700 kg car that
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Δv = 12 m/s, but we are not given the direction, so there are really an infinite number of potential solutions.

Maximum initial speed is 40.6 m/s

Minimum initial speed is 16.6 m/s

Explanation:

Assume this is a NET impulse so we can ignore friction.

An impulse results in a change of momentum

The impulse applied was

p = Ft = 1400(6.0) = 8400 N•s

p = mΔv

Δv = 8400 / 700 = 12 m/s

If the impulse was applied in the direction the car was already moving, the initial velocity was

vi = 28.6 - 12 = 16.6 m/s

if the impulse was applied in the direction opposite of the original velocity, the initial velocity was

vi = 28.6 + 12 = 40.6 m/s

Other angles of Net force would result in various initial velocities.

A rotating water pump works by taking water in at one side of a rotating wheel, and expelling it from the other side. If a pump
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Explanation:

initial angular velocity, ωo = 0 rad/s

angular acceleration, α = 30.5 rad/s²

time, t = 9 s

radius, r = 0.120 m

let the velocity is v after time 9 s.

Use first equation of motion for rotational motion

ω = ωo + αt

ω = 0 + 30.5 x 9

ω = 274.5 rad/s

v = rω

v = 0.120 x 274.5

v = 32.94 m/s
