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

In measuring the width of a hair sample, a light of wavelength 500 nm is used. The hair sample is 40 um in radius. With the scre

Answer:

The distance of the second dark band away from the central bright spot be located is $5.625\times10^{-2}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Wave length = 500 nm

Radius $d= 40\ \mu m$

Distance from the hair sample D= 6 m

We need to calculate the distance of the second dark band away from the central bright spot be located

$\sin\theta=\dfrac{y}{D}$

$\sin\theta=\dfrac{y}{6}$

Using formula for dark fringe

$(n-\dfrac{1}{2})\lambda=2d\sin\theta$

Put the value into the formula

$(2-\dfrac{1}{2})\times500\times10^{-9}=2\times40\times10^{-6}\times\dfrac{y}{6}$

$y=\dfrac{(2-\dfrac{1}{2})\times500\times10^{-9}\times6}{2\times40\times10^{-6}}$

$y=0.05625\ m$

$y=5.625\times10^{-2}\ m$

Hence, The distance of the second dark band away from the central bright spot be located is $5.625\times10^{-2}\ m$

When are objects in thermal equilibrium? *

frutty [35]

Thermal equilibrium is achieved when two objects or systems reach the same temperature and cease to exchange energy through heat. When two objects are placed together, the object with more heat energy will lose that energy to the object with less heat energy.
