The average radial velocity of galaxies in the Hercules cluster is 10,800 km/s. (a) using H0 = 73 km/s/Mpc, find the distance to

the Hercules cluster in Mpc. (b) How would your answer to (a) differ if the Hubble constant had a smaller value?

Answer:

a) 147.95 Mpc

Explanation:

Using Hubble's formula

v = H_od

where;

v = radical velocity

H_o = Hubble's constant

d = distance

Given that:

The average radial velocity of galaxies in the Hercules cluster v =  10,800 km/s

Also using H_o = 73 km/s/ Mpc ; we  make distance d the subject of the formula:

Then distance d can be written as:

d = \frac{v}{H_o}

d = \frac{10,800  \ km/s}{73 \ km/s/Mpc}

d = 147.95 Mpc

b)

Now, if the Hubble constant had a smaller value, then for a  given velocity the distance to the galaxy will increase because distance d is inversely proportional to H_o

i.e  

d  ∝ \frac{1}{H_0}

A cord of mass 0.65 kg is stretched between two supports 28 m apart. if the tension in the cord is 150 n, 2 how long will it tak
MaRussiya [10]
Ans: Time <span>taken by a pulse to travel from one support to the other = 0.348s
</span>
Explanation:
First you need to find out the speed of the wave.

Since
Speed = v = \sqrt{ \frac{T}{\mu} }

Where
T = Tension in the cord = 150N
μ = Mass per unit length = mass/Length = 0.65/28 = 0.0232 kg/m

So
v = \sqrt{ \frac{150}{0.0232} } = 80.41 m/s

Now the time-taken by the wave = t = Length/speed = 28/80.41=0.348s

The work function for a metal surface is 4.98 eV. What is the largest wavelength of light in nm that will produce photoelectrons
bulgar [2K]

Answer:\lambda =248.99 nm

Explanation:

Given

Work function\left ( \phi \right )=4.98\approx 1.602\times 10^{-19}\times 4.98

h=6.626\times 10^{-34} J

c=2.998\times 10^8

\phi =\frac{hc}{\lambda }

\lambda =\frac{hc}{\phi }

\lambda =\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 2.998\times 10^8}{4.98\times 1.602\times 10^{-19}}

\lambda =248.99 nm
