It all comes to the doppler effect, the red shift means that the galaxy is moving away from us. The redshift is a result from the doppler effect, so as the galaxy moves away the wavelength expands, increasing the wavelength which responds to the red light.

When a wave enters a new medium from an angle, both the speed and the ________ change
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

B: Amplitude

Explanation:

When a wave travels from one medium to the other from an angle, the things that change are amplitude, wavelength, intensity and velocity.

The frequency doesn't change because the frequency depends upon the source of the wave and not the medium by which the wave is propagated.

water has an index of refraction of 1.33. What is the critical angle for light leaving a pool of water into air? 0 37 90 49
vesna_86 [32]
When light travels from a medium with higher refractive index into a medium with lower refractive index, there is a maximum angle (called critical angle) for which all the light is reflected, so there is no refraction.

The value of the critical angle is given by:
\theta = \arcsin ( \frac{n_2}{n_1} )
when n1 is the refractive index of the first medium, while n2 is the refractive index of the second medium. In our case, n1=1.33 (the water) and n1=1.00 (the air). Putting numbers in, we get
\theta = \arcsin ( \frac{1.00}{1.33} )=49^{\circ}

How is fission used to produce electricity? a. the heat generated from the fission reaction is used to boil water, which rises a
denis-greek [22]

According to the research, the correct option is a. The heat generated from the fission reaction is used to boil water, which rises and spins a turbine.

<h3>How is fision used to produce electricity?</h3>

In fusion, two atoms come together to form a larger one, releasing enormous amounts of energy in the process, this is used by generators to produce electricity.

As a result of nuclear fusion, large amounts of heat are generated that are used to produce pressurized steam, which allows mechanical energy to be obtained to start up electric power generators.

Therefore, we can conclude that according to the research, the correct option is a. The heat generated from the fission reaction is used to boil water, which rises and spins a turbine.

Voltage needed to raise current to 3.75a using 20,20,200 resistor set
Varvara68 [4.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The voltage needed is 35.7 V

<u>Explanation:</u>

Assuming that the resistors are arranged in parallel combination.

For the resistors arranged in parallel combination:

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}

We are given:

R_1=20\Omega\\R_2=20\Omega\\R_3=200\Omega

Using above equation, we get:

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{200}\\\\\frac{1}{R}=\frac{10+10+1}{200}\\\\R=\frac{200}{21}=9.52\Omega

Calculating the voltage by using Ohm's law:

V=IR         .....(1)

where,

V = voltage applied

I = Current = 3.75 A

R = Resistance = 9.52\Omega

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

V=3.75\times 9.52\\\\V=35.7V

Hence, the voltage needed is 35.7 V

Using Rayleigh's criterion, what is the smallest separation between two pointlike objects that a person could clearly resolve at
atroni [7]

 Answer:

y = 52.44 10⁻⁶  m

Explanation:

It is Rayleigh's principle that two points are resolved if the maximum of the diffraction pattern of one matches the minimum the diffraction pattern of the other

Based on this principle we must find the angle of the first minimum of the diffraction expression

         a sin θ= m λ

The first minimum occurs for m = 1

       sin θ =  λ  / a

Now let's use trigonometry the object is a distance L = 0.205 m

        tan θ = y / L

Since the angles are very small, let's approximate

        tan θ = sin θ/cos θ = sin  θ

        sin θ = y / L

We substitute in the diffraction equation

         y / L =  λ  / a

         y =  λ  L / a

Let's calculate

        y = 550 10⁻⁹ 0.205 / 2.15 10⁻³

        y = 52.44 10⁻⁶ m
