Answer:

a. apparent magnitude

Explanation:

Apparent magnitude is a measure of the brightness of a star (that is, amount of light) received on Earth. Star's apparent magnitude depends on:

  • star luminosity
  • star distance from Earth
  • extinction of the light, for example, caused by interstellar dust.

Apparent magnitude because Apparent is kinda like when something is obvious. So that's how I think of it.

What is the colour of a shirt which has blue and white stripes when put under yellow light? Explain.​
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Black and yellow strips.

Explanation:

Color of shirt is blue and white stripes

When the shirt is seen in the yellow light, the blue color do not reflect any color so it appears black and the white color reflects the yellow light so it appears yellow.

Thus, the color of shirt is blue appears black and white appears yellow.

Consider two slides, both of the same height. One is long and the other is short. From which slide will a child have a greater f
Lunna [17]

Answer:

The final speed will be the same for the children on the shorter side and on the longer side.

Explanation:

This is because since the they are the same distance above the ground, their potential energy which is a function of mass, acceleration due to gravity and vertical height are the same.

PE = Mass × gravity × vertical height

At this point, we can deduce that the horizontal length of the slide has no effect on the potential energy. Only the vertical height does.

All this potential energy is converted to kinetic energy at the end of the slide. Since the potential energy is the same, then the kinetic energy will be the same and thus their velocity is the same.

Mathematically, consider that PE = mgh and KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

at the bottom of the slide, since energy has to be conserved, PE must be equal to KE.

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

final velocity of the child , v = \sqrt{2gh}

It shows the final velocity is only a function f acceleration due to gravity and height.

Thus, making their velocities equal.

The speed of an arrow fired from a compound
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

A.) The arrow`s range is 624,996 m

B.) The arrow`s range is 846.887 m, when the horse is galloping

Explanation:

We have a case of oblique movement. In these cases the movement in the X axis is a Uniform Rectelinear Movement (URM), and a Uniform Accelerated Movement (UAM) in the Y axis.

By the way, the equations that we use for the X axis will be from URM, and those for the Y axis wiil be from UAM.

<u>Equations</u>

X axis:

X=v_{ox}*t

v_{0x} =v_0cos(\alpha)

Y axis:

Y= Y_0 +v_{y0} t - \frac{g}{2} t^2

A.) First, it is necessary to know t, total time.

To figure out t value, we use UAM, since time is determined by this movement.

Now, at the end of the movement, Y=0, then

0= Y_0 +v_{y0} t - \frac{g}{2} t^2

0=2.4m+79m/s*sin(39)t-(1/2*9.81m/s^2)t^2

Caculate the segcond degree equation to obtain the two possible values for t:

t_1= 10.18 \\t_2= -0.04046

But, in physics, time it could not be negative, so we take t_1= 10.18

Caculate now:

X=79m/s*cos(\39)*10.18s= 624.996 m

B.) Now, the narrow has an additional speed, that could be sum to the speed due to the bow.

v_0= 79m/s+13m/s= 92m/s

Using the same procedure that item A, caculate X

First, we need to know the new time

0=2.4m+92m/s*sin(39)t-(1/2*9.81m/s^2)t^2

And we obtain:

t_1=11.845s\\t_2=-0.041s

One more time, we take the positive time: t_1=11.845s

Finally:

X=92m/s *cos(39)*11.845s=846.887 m
