If you detected radio signals with an average wavelength of 67 cm and suspected that they came from a civilization on a distant

Earth-like exoplanet, roughly how much of a change in wavelength (in cm) should you expect to detect as a result of the orbital motion of the distant exoplanet?

Answer:

0.0066553 cm

Explanation:

v = Earth's average orbital velocity = 29.8 km/s

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

\lambda = Wavelength = 67 cm

\Delta\lambda = Change in wavelength

The Doppler shift is given by

\dfrac{v}{c}=\dfrac{\Delta \lambda}{\lambda_0}\\\Rightarrow \Delta \lambda=\dfrac{v\lambda_0}{c}\\\Rightarrow \Delta \lambda=\dfrac{29800\times 0.67}{3\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow \Delta\lambda=0.000066553\ m=0.0066553\ cm

The change in wavelength is 0.0066553 cm

l o which of the following can move from one atom to another A. protons Msideus. B. neutrons C. electrons the nucleus
Tanzania [10]
Electrons can move from one atom to another. 

When a lot of them are doing it at the same time,
you have an electric current.

We asked around here at Brainly, and nobody knows
what an "Msideus" is, but we all know that there aren't
any of them in atoms.

The angular speed of the hour hand of a clock, in rad/min, is:___________
lapo4ka [179]

The angular speed is defined as:

<h2>                                      ω=\frac{2\pi}{T}</h2>

        where

                                     T=12*60=720min

                                     \omega=\frac{2\pi}{720}

                                     \omega=4.4**10^{-3} rad/min

A car starts from rest and accelerates at a constant rate after the car has gone 50 m it has a speed of 21 m/s what is the accel
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

4.41 m/s^2

Explanation:

(v_f)^2 - (v_i)^2 = 2a * change in distance

(21)^2 - (0)^2 = 2a * 50

a = (21^2)/(2*50)

a = 4.41 m/s^2

a typical cmall flashlight contains two batteries each having na emf of 2.0 v connected in series with a bulb havin ga resistanc
Helen [10]

Answer:

P = 0.25 W

Explanation:

Given that,

The emf of the battry, E = 2 V

The resistance of a bulb, R = 16 ohms

We need to find the power delivered to the bulb. We know that, the formula for the power delivered is given by :

P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}\\\\P=\dfrac{2^2}{16}\\\\=0.25\ W

So, 0.25 W power is delivered to the bulb.
