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.

Answer:

v =  57.2 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity of the train can be defined as the total distance covered by the train divided by the time taken by the train to cover that distance. Therefore, we will use the following formula to find the average velocity of the train:

v = s/t

where,

s = distance covered = 460 km = (460 km)(1000 m/1 km) = 4.6 x 10⁵ m

t = time taken to cover the distance = 2 h 14 min

Now, we convert it into minutes:

t = (2 h)(60 min/1 h) + 14 min

t = 120 min + 14 min = (134 min)(60 s/1 min)

t = 8040 s

Therefore, the value of velocity will be:

v = (4.6 x 10⁵ m)/8040 s

<u>v =  57.2 m/s</u>

A drowsy cat spots a flowerpot that sails first up and then down past an open window. the pot was in view for a total of 0.49 s,
Alika [10]

For this case, let's assume that the pot spends exactly half of its time going up, and half going down, i.e. it is visible upward for 0.245 s and downward for 0.245 s. Let us take the bottom of the window to be zero on a vertical axis pointing upward. All calculations will be made in reference to this coordinate system. <span>

An initial condition has been supplied by the problem: 

s=1.80m when t=0.245s 

<span>This means that it takes the pot 0.245 seconds to travel upward 1.8m. Knowing that the gravitational acceleration acts downward constantly at 9.81m/s^2, and based on this information we can use the formula:

s=(v)(t)+(1/2)(a)(t^2) 

to solve for v, the initial velocity of the pot as it enters the cat's view through the window. Substituting and solving (note that gravitational acceleration is negative since this is opposite our coordinate orientation): 

(1.8m)=(v)(0.245s)+(1/2)(-9.81m/s^2)(0.245s)^2 

v=8.549m/s 

<span>Now we know the initial velocity of the pot right when it enters the view of the window. We know that at the apex of its flight, the pot's velocity will be v=0, and using this piece of information we can use the kinematic equation:

(v final)=(v initial)+(a)(t) 

to solve for the time it will take for the pot to reach the apex of its flight. Because (v final)=0, this equation will look like 

0=(v)+(a)(t) 

Substituting and solving for t: 

0=(8.549m/s)+(-9.81m/s^2)(t) 

t=0.8714s 

<span>Using this information and the kinematic equation we can find the total height of the pot’s flight:

s=(v)(t)+(1/2)(a)(t^2) </span></span></span></span>

s=8.549m/s (0.8714s)-0.5(9.81m/s^2)(0.8714s)^2

s=3.725m<span>

This distance is measured from the bottom of the window, and so we will need to subtract 1.80m from it to find the distance from the top of the window: 

3.725m – 1.8m=1.925m</span>

 

Answer:

<span>1.925m</span>
