A typical stellar spectrum (a plot of intensity versus wavelength) includes a number of deep indentations in which the intensity

abruptly falls and then rises. These deep indentations are called ____ lines.

Answer:

They are called absorption lines

Explanation:

Absorption lines are defined as dark lines or lines having reduced intensity, on an ongoing spectrum. A typical example is noticed in the spectra of stars, where gas existing in the outer layers of the star absorbs some of the light from the underlying thermal blackbody spectrum.

How much ice (at 0°C) must be added to 1.90 kg of water at 79 °C so as to end up with all liquid at 8 °C? (ci = 2000 J/(kg.°
muminat

m = mass of the ice added = ?

M = mass of water = 1.90 kg

c_{w} = specific heat of the water = 4186 J/(kg ⁰C)

c_{i}  = specific heat of the ice = 2000 J/(kg ⁰C)

L_{f} = latent heat of fusion of ice to water = 3.35 x 10⁵ J/kg

T_{ii}  = initial temperature of ice = 0 ⁰C

T_{wi} = initial temperature of water = 79 ⁰C

T = final equilibrium temperature = 8 ⁰C

using conservation of heat

Heat gained by ice = Heat lost by water

m c_{w}  (T - T_{ii} ) + m L_{f}  = M c_{w}  (T_{wi} - T)

inserting the values

m (4186) (8 - 0) + m (3.35 x 10⁵ ) = (1.90) (4186) (79 - 8)

m = 1.53 kg

A famous physics tale is about a rich man who was found dead. He was
anyanavicka [17]
<h2>Answer: C) He could have thrown the bag of money sideways, creating a  horizontal reaction force on himself.</h2>

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion, when two bodies interact between them, appear equal forces and opposite senses in each of them.

To understand it better:

Each time a body or object exerts a force on a second body or object, it (the second body) will exert a force of equal magnitude and direction but in the opposite direction on the first.

So, if the rich man had pushed the bag of money horizontally opposite of where he was, he could have saved himself.

Momentum = mass x velocity

So both mass and velocity affect an object's momentum.
