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

Why does a balloon stick to a wall questions and problems answers?
Akimi4 [234]
<span>The reason that the balloon will stick to the wall is because the negative charges in the balloon will make the electrons in the wall move to the other side of their atoms and this leaves the surface of the wall positively charged.</span>

Problem 4: A uniform flat disk of radius R and mass 2M is pivoted at point P A point mass of 1/2 M is attached to the edge of th
brilliants [131]

From the case we know that:

  1. The moment of inertia Icm of the uniform flat disk witout the point mass is Icm = MR².
  2. The moment of inerta with respect to point P on the disk without the point mass is Ip = 3MR².
  3. The total moment of inertia (of the disk with the point mass with respect to point P) is I total = 5MR².

Please refer to the image below.

We know from the case, that:

m = 2M

r = R

m2 = 1/2M

distance between the center of mass to point P = p = R

Distance of the point mass to point P = d = 2R

We know that the moment of inertia for an uniform flat disk is 1/2mr². Then the moment of inertia for the uniform flat disk is:

Icm = 1/2mr²

Icm = 1/2(2M)(R²)

Icm = MR² ... (i)

Next, we will find the moment of inertia of the disk with respect to point P. We know that point P is positioned at the arc of the disk. Hence:

Ip = Icm + mp²

Ip = MR² + (2M)R²

Ip = 3MR² ... (ii)

Then, the total moment of inertia of the disk with the point mass is:

I total = Ip + I mass

I total = 3MR² + (1/2M)(2R)²

I total = 3MR² + 2MR²

I total = 5MR² ... (iii)
