One of the characteristics of the luminous gas clouds is that they do not have direct affectation by some type of external electric or magnetic fields.

In addition, we must bear in mind that color is a variable that is depending on the gas in the mixture. Therefore its relationship with spectroscopy allows us to deduce that scientists take advantage of the wavelength spectrum to know the type of composition of one of the clouds. The speed of a cloud is measured by determining the Doppler shift of its spectral lines. From wine's law, wavelength of light emitting from the object depends on temperature of object

Therefore the correct option is D

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

√35 square units

Explanation:

Area of square = 35square units

Formula of area of square is a =s*s where a is area and s is side

So,

s*s = 35

s^2= 35

s = √35

Each of 100 identical blocks sitting on a frictionless surface is connected to the next block by a massless string. The first bl

o-na [289]

Answer:

The tension in the string connecting block 50 to block 51 is 50 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of block = 100

Force = 100 N

let m be the mass of each block.

We need to calculate the net force acting on the 100th block

Using second law of newton

$F=ma$

$100=100m\times a$

$ma=1\ N$

We need to calculate the tension in the string between blocks 99 and 100

Using formula of force

$F_{100-99}=ma$

$F_{100-99}=1$

We need to calculate the total number of masses attached to the string

Using formula for mass

$m'=(100-50)m$

$m'=50m$

We need to calculate the tension in the string connecting block 50 to block 51

Using formula of tension

$F_{50}=m'a$

Put the value into the formula

$F_{50}=50m\times a$

$F_{50}=50\times1$

$F_{50}=50\ N$

Hence, The tension in the string connecting block 50 to block 51 is 50 N.

A careful photographic survey of Jupiter’s moon Io by the spacecraft Voyager 1 showed active volcanoes spewing liquid sulfur to

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

529.15 m/s

Explanation:

h = Maximum height = 70000 m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 2 m/s²

m = Mass of sulfur

As the potential and kinetic energies are conserved

$mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gh}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 2\times 70000}\\\Rightarrow v=529.15\ m/s$

The speed with which the liquid sulfur left the volcano is 529.15 m/s

Under the Neutrality Acts, all of the following conditions were agreed to except which?

solniwko [45]

Under the Neutrality Act, all of the following conditions were agreed to except America would provide aid to any nation attacked by Axis Powers. The correct option in regards to all the options given in the question is option"a". During the 1930's the United Nations Congress passed the Neutrality Act. It was passed keeping in mind the turmoil Europe and Asia were passing through during that time. Eventually the turmoil led to the starting of World War II. The Acts were modified several times and ultimately withdrawn when the United States ships were attacked by German submarines.

How do you tell a stars life expectancy based on an hr diagram?

e-lub [12.9K]

The X-axis of the H-R Diagram indicates the star's surface temperature in degrees Kelvin. The Y-axis, on the other hand, indicates luminosity, or brightness.

Main sequence refers to a roughly diagonal, slightly S-curved line stretching between the upper-left and lower-right corners on which main sequence stars chart. They maintain a predictable relationship between luminosity and temperature: the brighter, the hotter. The upper-right quadrant of the H-R diagram is home to newly discovered red giants while the lower-left quadrant of the H-R Diagram belongs almost exclusively to white dwarfs.
