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.

If the amplitude of a wave is 4 feet, what is the Wave Height?
Alexus [3.1K]

A wave is a disturbance that moves along a medium from one end to the other. If one watches an ocean wave moving along the medium (the ocean water), one can observe that the crest of the wave is moving from one location to another over a given interval of time. The crest is observed to cover distance. The speed of an object refers to how fast an object is moving and is usually expressed as the distance traveled per time of travel. In the case of a wave, the speed is the distance traveled by a given point on the wave (such as a crest) in a given interval of time. In equation form,

A force of 8.0 N is along x direction, another force of 6.0 N is along +y direction. If both forces are acting on a point object
Darya [45]

Answer:

Resultant force, R = 10 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting along +x direction, F_x=8\ N

Force acting along +y direction, F_y=6\ N

Both the forces are acting on a point object located at the origin. Let the resultant force of the object is given by R. So,

R=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2+F_xF_y\ cos\theta}

Here \theta=90^{\circ}

R=\sqrt{F_x^2+F_y^2}

R=\sqrt{8^2+6^2}

R = 10 N

So, the resultant force on the object is 10 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Do you think there might be a point in space between Earth and the Moon where the gravity of each would pull on an object equall
Firlakuza [10]

Answer: Yes.

Explanation:

Assuming Earth and Moon are isolated is space, it is possible to have a point where Earth and Moon will pull at an object with equal force.

That point will be closer to the Moon than the Earth because Moon's gravitational field strength is weaker than Earth's gravitational field strength.

A shopping cart rolls from x=19.9m to x=5.40m with an average velocity of -0.418m/s. How much time did it take? (unit=s)
andrew11 [14]

Given

initial position = Xi= 19.9m

Final position Xf = 5.4m

Average velocity= Va = -0.418m/s

it shows displacement is reverse.

To find  t=?

As   Va = (Xf- Xi) / t

t = (Xf-Xi) / ( Va)

t = ( 5.4-19.9) / (-0.418)

t = (-14.5 ) / (-0.418)   (-ve sign cancel out at numerator and denominator)

t =34.69 s
