Answer: 2859.78 k

Explanation: By using the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the meteor equals the heat energy.

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv^2

Heat energy = mcΔθ

Where m = mass of meteor , v = velocity of meteor = 1623 m/s

c = specific heat capacity of meteor (iron) = 460.548 j/kg/k

Δθ = change in temperature of meteor = ?

From law ofconservation of energy, we have that

1/2mv^2 = mcΔθ

By cancelling "m" on both sides, we have that

v^2/2 = cΔθ

v^2 = 2cΔθ

(1623)^2 = 2× 460.548 × Δθ

2634129 = 921.096 × Δθ

Δθ = 2634129 / 921.096

Δθ = 2859.78 k

Describe the evolution of a pulsar over time, in particular how the rotation and pulse signal changes over time.
madam [21]

Answer:

As beams of particles and their associated energy are given off, the pulsar will lose energy slowly, which will decrease the rate of its rotation. The frequency of pulses would therefore decrease, so that fewer pulses are observed in a given time span. The strength of the pulse signal will also decrease so the pulses will become fainter. Eventually, the pulsar should rotate so slowly and have such a low emission of radiation that it would no longer be observable.

Compare green and orange light from the visible spectrum. You are currently in a labeling module. Turn off browse mode or quick
77julia77 [94]

Green: nm 495–570. Yellow: nm 570–590. 590–620 nm for orange. Red: 620-750 nm (400–484 THz frequency)

Solids' molecules are strongly attracted to one another. As a result, the molecules are barely moving and tightly packed. Because of this, shape and volume are fixed.

The forces of attraction and repulsion in liquids are comparable. Compared to the solid state, they move a little bit more. They then assume the shape of the container while still having a fixed capacity.

The attraction forces between the molecules in gases are quite weak. They move quite freely and grow in an effort to fill as much space as they can. Consequently, their volume and shape vary (adopt the shape of the container).

A wave with a frequency of 80 Hz travels through rubber with a wavelength of 7.0 m. What is the velocity of the wave?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

560 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

Frequency ( f ) = 80 hz

Wavelength ( λ ) = 7.0 m = 7m

To find : Velocity ( v )

Formula : -

v = f λ

v = 80 x 7

v = 560 m/s

Hence, the velocity of the wave is 560 m/s.
