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

A stone is dropped into a river from a bridge 41.7 m above the water. Another stone is thrown vertically down 1.80 s after the f

hram777 [196]

Answer:

31.75 m/s

Explanation:

h = 41.7 m

Let the initial velocity of the second stone is u

Let the time taken to reach to the bottom by the first stone is t then the time taken by the second stone to reach the ground is t - 1.8.

For first stone:

Use second equation of motion

$h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Here, u = 0, g = 9.8 m/s^2 and t be the time and h = 41.7

So, 41.7= 0 + 0.5 x 9.8 x t^2

41.7 = 4.9 t^2

t = 2.92 s ..... (1)

For second stone:

Use second equation of motion

$h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Here, g = 9.8 m/s^2 and time taken is t - 1.8 = 2.92 - 1.8 = 1.12 s, h = 41.7 m and u be the initial velocity

$h=u\left ( t-1.8 \right )+4.9\left ( t-1.8 \right )^2$ .... (2)

By equation the equation (1) and (2), we get

$41.7=1.12 u +4.9 \times 1.12^{2}$

u = 31.75 m/s

A 2 kg ball is dropped above the surface of Planet X. If the gravitational field strength at the surface of Planet X is 5 N/kg,

Trava [24]

Given data:

* The mass of the ball is 2 kg.

* The gravitational field strength at the surface of planet X is 5 N/kg.

Solution:

The weight of the ball on the planet X is,

$W=ma$

where m is the mass of ball, a is the gravitational field strength,

Substituting the known values,

$\begin{gathered} W=2\times5 \\ W=10\text{ N} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the weight of the ball on the surface of planet X is 10 N.

Review the Four Social Errors and Biases in the Highlights area on page 127 in Ch. 4 of THiNK: Critical Thinking and Logic Skill

AysviL [449]

Answer: Provided in the explanation

Explanation:

I have understood that I have been influenced by the 'affinity bias' for quite a while. It caused me to feel fascination and feel better and right about individuals who had comparable intrigue and thought designs. I sort of began to feel this is the one for me based on those likenesses yet later used to be miserable when I comprehended that those similitudes are not many and insufficient consistently. I have begun to beat this inclination by rehearsing self reflection. I have begun to think about what causes me to feel pulled in to somebody and on the off chance that I introspect that it's exclusively founded on likenesses, at that point I cause myself to get that and monitoring that helps in escaping the inclination.

I make an effort not to get into the snare of paradoxes in my own announcements yet I have been forced to bear deceptions during contentions. One deception which I have encountered most is the 'Foul play' error as there have been a great deal of occurrences when individuals began to tear down me and my family when they couldn't win on a contention regarding balanced and rationale.

Basic reasoning causes us in understanding our defects and those issues of our own which keeps us from taking better choices and furthermore forestalls us tackling issues in more successful manners. Through basic reasoning, one can reflect and recognize utilization of deceptions in the contentions and that will help him in deciphering the circumstance from an alternate perspective. He will assess the circumstance better and through appropriate induction, he will have the option to get over those issues in thinking and subsequently, have the option to take better and more powerful choices for taking care of an issue.

The most fascinating idea which I have learned is that of the utilization of reflection or explicitly self reflection to comprehend ourselves better and furthermore to display basic reasoning appropriately. Being said that, I am a still somewhat confused about the manners by which we can reflect appropriately at each circumstance in a successful manner. This disarray remains in light of the fact that most deceptions and predispositions are oblivious in nature while the basic considering aptitudes reflection is cognizant and I meander whether a cognizant ability will have the option to break down and distinguish each oblivious inclinations or whether a few guards will keep a few inclinations covered up.

(a) Calculate the buoyant force on a 2.00-L helium balloon.

iragen [17]

Answer:

0.0239364 N

0.0057879 N

Explanation:

$\rho$ = Density of the gas

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

V = Volume

Mass of rubber = 1.5 g

Buoyant force is given by

$F_b=\rho gV\\\Rightarrow F_b=1.22\times 9.81\times 2\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow F_b=0.0239364\ N$

The buoyant force is 0.0239364 N

Net vertical force is given by

$F_n=F_b-W_{He}-W_{r}\\\Rightarrow F_n=0.0239364-0.175\times 2\times 10^{-3}\times 9.81-1.5\times 10^{-3}\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=0.0057879\ N$

The net vertical force is 0.0057879 N
