8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

a) the speed=

V=√2gr²/2r

=√gr/2

√10*637/2

V=31850m/s²

Magnitude of the acceleration

a=Gm/r²

10*238/(6370)²

2380/12740

=0.187

A spring is hung from the ceiling. When a coffee mug is attached to its end, it stretches 2.5 cm before reaching its new equilib
densk [106]

Answer:

Explanation:

In equilibrium , weight of mug is equal to restoring force .

mg = kx where m is mass of mug , k is spring constant and x is extension .

k / m = g / x = 9.8 ms⁻² / .025 m

= 392

frequency of oscillation n = \frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

n=\frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{392 }

= 4.46 per second.

the blackbody curve for a star named Theta is shown below. What is the surface temperature of this star rounded to the nearest w
Ronch [10]

The image of the black body curve is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

T ≈ 3372 K

Explanation:

From the attached curve of the black star, if we trace the peak value of the wavelength from the graph, we will see that it is approximately 859.5 nm.

Thus; λ_peak = 859.5 × 10^(-9) m

From wiens law, we know that;

T•λ_peak = 2.898 × 10^(-3) m.K

Where T is surface temperature.

Plugging in the relevant values, we can find the temperature T

Thus;

T = (2.898 × 10^(-3))/(859.5 × 10^(-9))

T ≈ 3372 K
