An astronomer is measuring the electromagnetic radiation emitted by two stars, both of which are assumed to be perfect blackbody

emitters. For each star she makes a plot of the radiation intensity per unit wavelength as a function of wavelength. She notices that the curve for star A has a maximum that occurs at a shorter wavelength than does the curve for star B. What can she conclude about the surface temperatures of the two stars?
a. Star A has the greater surface temperature.
b. There is not enough information to draw a conclusion about the temperatures.
c. Star B has the greater surface temperature.
d. Both stars, being perfect blackbody emitters, have the same surface temperature.

Harman [31]

Answer: D <u>(chemical</u>  -> <u>heat</u> -> <u>mechanical</u>)

In automobile engines the petrol/diesel fuel enter in to the engine cylinder, due to spark at the end of the compression, fuel burnt increase the temperature and pressure, develops heat <em>(chemical energy -> heat energy). </em><em>This heat energy acts on a piston develops the work on the crankshaft </em><em>( Heat energy -> Mechanical energy)</em><em>. </em>

Two wires with the same resistance have the same diameter but different lengths. If wire 1 has length L 1 and wire 2 has length
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Length of wire 1=L_1

Length of wire 2=L_2

Resistivity of copper wire=\rho_1=1.7\times 10^{-5}\Omega-m

Resistivity of aluminum wire=\rho_2=2.82\times 10^{-5}\Omega-m

Wire 1=Copper wire

Wire 2=Aluminum wire

Diameter of both wires are same and resistance of both wires are also same.

We know that

Resistance =\frac{\rho l}{A}

When diameter of wires are same then their cross section area are also same .

l=\frac{RA}{\rho}

When resistance and area are same then the length of wire depend upon the resistivity of wire .

The length of wire is inversely proportional to resistivity.

When resistivity is greater then the length of wire will be short and when the resistivity  is small then the length of wire will be large.

\rho_1

Therefore, L_1>L_2

Hence, the length of wire 1 (copper wire) is greater than the length of wire 2 (aluminum).

\frac{L_1}{L_2}=\frac{\frac{RA}{1.7\times 10^{-5}}}{\frac{RA}{2.82\times 10^{-5}}}=1.66

L_1=1.66L_2

Which of the following is a possible measurement of velocity? A. 25 m B. 25 m/s C. 25 m east D. 25 m/s east
Kazeer [188]
Answer is B.
Because velocity is vector quantity, so magnitud and direction are needed to define it.
Since velocity means the speed(magnitude) of some object in a given direction, so it’s units are usually measured by meters/ seconds
