Which of these cultures did NOT make major contributions to astronomy?

1 answer:

6 0

I can't particularly place what Icelandic contributed.

But every other culture contributed majorly.

So I would go for option b.

Answer:

I'm going to say b. gasoline is a chemical and when it combusts, it causes heat (thermal energy) and when the piston rotates because of the thermal expansion, you get mechanical force.

A police car chases a speeder along a straight road towards a cliff both vehicles move at 160km/h the siren on the police car pr

natta225 [31]

Answer:

f ’= 97.0 Hz

Explanation:

This is an exercise of the doppler effect use the frequency change due to the relative movement of the fort and the observer

in this case the source is the police cases that go to vs = 160 km / h

and the observer is vo = 120 km / h

the relationship of the doppler effect is

f ’= f₀ (v + v₀ / v- $v_{s}$ )

let's reduce the magnitude to the SI system

v_{s} = 160 km / h (1000 m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 44.44 m / s

v₀ = 120 km / h (1000m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 33.33 m / s

we substitute in the equation of the Doppler effect

f ‘= 100 (330+ 33.33 / 330-44.44)

f ’= 97.0 Hz

A yellow train of mass 100 kg is moving at 8 m/s towards an orange train of mass 200 kg traveling on the opposite direction on t

vladimir1956 [14]

Mass of yellow train, my = 100 kg

Initial Velocity of yellow train, = 8 m/s

mass of orange train = 200 kg

Initial Velocity of orange train = -1 m/s (since it moves opposite direction to the yellow train, we will put negative to show the opposite direction)

To calculate the initial momentum of both trains, we will use the principle of conservation of momentum which

The sum of initial momentum = the sum of final momentum

Since the question only wants the sum of initial momentum,

(100)(8) + (200)(-1) = 600 m/s

A grating has 2000 slits/cm/cm. How many full spectral orders can be seen (400 to 700 nmnm) when it is illuminated by white ligh

Anton [14]

With the use of the formula SinФ = nλ / d, there are 16 spectral orders which can be seen when it is illuminated by white light.

Given that a grating has 2000 slits/cm. That is,

d = 0.01 / 2000

d = 5 x $10^{-6}$ m

The wavelength λ = (700 - 400) nm

λ = 300 x $10^{-9}$ m

To calculate how many full spectral orders that can be seen (400 to 700 nm) when it is illuminated by white light, we will use the below formula

SinФ = nλ / d

Φ = $Sin^{-1}$ (nλ / d)

When n = 1

Φ = $Sin^{-1}$ (300 x $10^{-9}$ / 5 x $10^{-6}$ )

Φ = 3.4 degrees

when n = 2

Φ = $Sin^{-1}$ (2 x 300 x $10^{-9}$ / 5 x $10^{-6}$ )

Ф = 6.9 degrees

When n = 3

Ф = $Sin^{-1}$ (3 x 300 x $10^{-9}$ / 5 x $10^{-6}$ )

When n = 16

Ф = $Sin^{-1}$ (16 x 300 x $10^{-9}$ / 5 x $10^{-6}$ )

Ф = $Sin^{-1}$ (0.96)

Ф = 73.7 degrees

when n = 17

Ф = $Sin^{-1}$ (17 x 300 x $10^{-9}$ / 5 x $10^{-6}$ )

Ф = $Sin^{-1}$ (1.05)

Ф = Error ( that is, it does not exist)

Therefore, there are 16 spectral orders which can be seen when it is illuminated by white light.
