To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concept related to wavelength, specifically when the wavelength is observed from a source that is in motion to the observer.

By definition the wavelength is given defined by,

$\lambda_{obs} = \lambda_s \sqrt{\frac{1+u/c}{1-u/c}}$

Where

$\lambda_{obs}$ = Observed wavelength

$\lambda_s$ = Wavelength of the source

c = Speed of light in vacuum

u = Relative velocity of the source to the observer

According to our data we have that the wavelength emitted from the galaxy is 1875nm which is equal to the wavelength from the source, while the wavelength from the observer is $\lambda_{obs}=1945nm$

Therefore replacing in the previous equation we have,

$1945 = 1875 \sqrt{\frac{1+\frac{u}{c} }{1-\frac{u}{c} }}$

$\sqrt{\frac{1+u/c}{1-u/c}} = 1.03733$

$\frac{1+\frac{u}{c} }{1-\frac{u}{c} }=1.03733^2$

$1+\frac{u}{c} =1.03733^2*(1-\frac{u}{c} )$

Solving for u,

$1+\frac{u}{c} =1.03733^2*(1-\frac{u}{c} )$

$1+\frac{u}{c} =1.03733^2-1.03733^2(\frac{u}{c} )$

$\frac{u}{c} +1.03733^2\frac{u}{c} =1.03733^2-1$

$2.88595\frac{u}{c}=1.03733^2-1$

$\frac{u}{c} = \frac{1.03733^2-1}{2.88595}$

$u = \frac{1.03733^2-1}{2.88595}*c$

$u = 0.02635c$

Therefore the speed of the gas relative to earth is 0.02635 times the speed of light.

You have a piece of cork with a volume of 2 cm^3 and a density of 210kg/m^3. You hold it under water and release it.

I am sorry if it didn't helped

answers;

Calculate the buoyant force of a piece of cork of 8cm3 that floats in water. Density of cork is 207kg/m3. ?

I need the mass, in order to get the volume to apply t to the Buoyancy formula of: B=(W)object=(m)object(g)

Explanation:

From Archimedes Principle, any object partially or totally submerged in a fluid is buoyed upwards with a force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid.

A 26.2-kg dog is running northward at 3.02 m/s, while a 5.30-kg cat is running eastward at 2.74 m/s. Their 65.1-kg owner has the

REY [17]

Answer:

Angle with the +x axis is θ = 79.599degree

Then the velocity of owner = 1.235m/s

Explanation:

Given that the mass of dog is m1 =26.2 kg

velocity of dog is u1 = 3.02 m/s (north)

mass of cat is m2 = 5.3 kg

velocity is u2 = 2.74 m/s (east )

Mass of owner is M = 65.1 kg

Consider the east direction along +x axis andnorth along +y

momentum of dog is Py = m1 x u1

= 79.124 kg.m/s (j)

momentum of cat is Px = m2 x u2

= 14.522 kg.m/s (i)

Then the net magnitude of momentum is P = (Px2 + Py2)1/2

= 80.445

Angle with the +x axis is θ =tan-1(Py / Px ) = 79.599 degree

Then the velocity of owner is v = P / M = 1.235 m/s
