Compared with the peak wavelength given off by the Sun, what is the peak wavelength given off by a hotter star?
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

A. Shorter in wavelength and higher in energy

Explanation:

The peak wavelength of a star can be found by using Wien's displacement law:

\lambda=\frac{b}{T}

where

b is the Wien's displacement constant

T is the surface temperature of the star

From the equation, we see that the peak wavelength \lambda is inversely proportional to the temperature: therefore, a star which is hotter then the sun (greater T) will have shorter wavelength.

Moreover, the energy of the emitted radiation is inversely proportional to the wavelength:

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where h is the Planck constant, c is the speed of light. Therefore, shorter wavelength means higher energy.

So, the correct answer is

A. Shorter in wavelength and higher in energy

Simpson drives his car with an average velocity of 48.0 km/h to the east. How long will it take him to drive 144 km on a straigh
Lorico [155]

Answer:

The time save by Simpson is 25.8 minutes.

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of the car, v = 48 km/h

Distance covered by the car, d = 144 km

Let t is the time taken by the car. Speed of an object is given by distance covered per unit time. It is given by :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{144\ km}{48\ km/h}

t = 3 hours

If the velocity is increased to 56 km/h to the east. Time taken is given by :

t'=\dfrac{144\ km}{56\ km/h}

t' = 2.57 seconds

The time save by Simpson increasing his average velocity is given by :

\Delta t=t-t'

\Delta t=3-2.57

\Delta t=0.43\ hours

or

\Delta t=25.8\ min

So, the time save by Simpson is 25.8 minutes. Hence, this is the required solution.

Calculate the force of earth's gravity on a 1kg mass at earth's surface. the mass of the earth is 6.0
jonny [76]

Force of earth gravity on 1 kg mass is 9.8 N.

Since the mass is at earth surface, therefore its distance from the centre of earth is equal to the radius of the earth i.e. 6400 km.

The force of earth gravity is calculated as

F=GMm/r^2 =(6.67*〖10〗^(-11)*6*〖10〗^24*1)/〖(64*〖10〗^6)〗^2 =9.8 N
