Answer: The correct answer is A.

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

Doppler effect is the phenomenon in which there is an apparent change in the frequency of the wave when there is a relative motion between the observer and the source.

Scientists use the Doppler effect to understand the universe by determining the motion of the object.

Therefore, the correct answer is A.

Light changes as the object in space (such as star) moves away from us then the light is shifted to red end. In this case, the light is shifted to longer wavelength.

Light changes as the object in space (such as star) moves towards us then the light is shifted to blue end. In this case, the light is shifted to shorter wavelength.

In the given problem, the when the stars are moving towards each other then the blue shift in the light will occur.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

*PLEASE HELP*

Answer: The focal length of the lens = 3.32 cm.

Explanation:

Lens formula : $\dfrac1f=\dfrac1v-\dfrac1u$ (i)

f= focal length , v=image distance , u =object distance.

magnification: m = $\dfrac{v}{u}$ (ii )

Given: v= -12.8 cm , m =2.85

Put values in (ii), we get

$2.85=\dfrac{-12.8}{u}\\\\\Rightarrow\ u=\dfrac{-12.8}{2.85}\\\\\Rightarrow\ u=-4.49\ cm$

substitute values of u , v in (i)

$\dfrac1f=\dfrac1{-12.8}-\dfrac{1}{4.49}\\\\\Rightarrow\dfrac1f=-0.30084214922\\\\\Rightarrow\ f=\dfrac{-1}{-0.30084214922}\approx3.32\ cm$

Hence, the focal length of the lens = 3.32 cm.

3. Does a wire with a current running through it

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

as net charge of a current carrying conductor is zero so no electric field is associated with at.

And

as moving charges give rise to magnetic field so magnetic field is associated with it

Usually, large amount of curent flows in a<br> Circuit due to two reasons ———— and ————.

omeli [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Possible causes for overcurrent include short circuits, excessive load, incorrect design, an arc fault, or a ground fault. Fuses, circuit breakers, and current limiters are commonly used overcurrent protection (OCP) mechanisms to control the risks

You are pulling a sled using a horizontal rèpe, as shown in the diagram. The rope pulls the sled. exerting a force of 50 N to th

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Part 1

20 N

Part 2

0.4 m/s²

Part 3

4 m/s

Explanation:

The force which pulls the sled right = 50 N

The friction force exterted towards left by the snow = -30 N

The mass of the sled = 50 kg

Part 1

The sum of the forces on the sled, F = 50 N + (-30) N = 20 N

Part 2

The acceleration of the sled is given as follows;

F = m·a

Where;

m = The mass of the sled

a = The accelertion

a = F/m

∴ a = (20 N)/(50 kg) = 0.4 m/s²

The acceleration of the sled, a = 0.4 m/s²

Part 3

The initial velocity of the sled, u = 2 m/s

The kinematic equation of motion to determine the speed of the sled is v = u + a·t

The speed, <em>v</em>, of the sled after t = 5 seconds is therefore;

v = 2 m/s + 0.4 m/s² × 5 s = 4 m/s.
