Answer:

c. They will be shifted toward the red end of the spectrum.

Explanation:

When the absorption or emission lines of a moving object away from from the earth at very high speed then the spectral lines will be shifted toward the red end of the spectrum.This effect can be easily understand by Doppler effect..

So the our option c is correct.

c. They will be shifted toward the red end of the spectrum.

Answer:

0.453 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the handle has diameter of 0.4 m while inner part diameter is 0.1 m then the circumference of outer part is $\pi d_h$ where d is diameter and subscript h denote handle. By substituting 0.4 for the handle's diameter then cirxumference of outer part is $\pi\times 0.4\approx 1.256 m$

The rate of rotation will then be 1.81/1.256=1.441 rev/s

Similarly, circumference of inner part will be $\pi d_i$ where subscript i represent inner. Substituting 0.1 for inner diameter then

$\pi\times 0.1\approx 0.3142 m$

The rate of rotation found for outer handle applies for inner hence speed will be 0.3142*1.441=0.453 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is about 1/6 of the acceleration due to gravity on the earth. A net force F acts hor

uysha [10]

Answer:

c. $a_m$

Explanation:

We are given that

Acceleration due to gravity on the moon= $a_m$

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth= $a_e$

$g_m=\frac{1}{6}g_e$

Net force due to am on an object on moon= $F_{net}=ma_m$

There is no friction and no drag force and there is no gravity involved

Then, the force acting on an object on earth= $F=ma_e$

$F=F_{net}$ (given)

$ma_m=ma_e$

$a_e=a_m$

Hence, option c is true.

Calculate the change in length of concrete sidewalk (coefficient of linear expansion for concrete is 12*10^-6/celcius) that is 1

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 5.4 cm

Explanation:

This problem refers to calculate the change in length in one dimension due to a change in temperature.

Data

α = 12 x 10⁻⁶

Lo = 150 meters

ΔT = 30 °C

Formula

ΔL/Lo = αΔT

solve for ΔL

ΔL = αLoΔT

Substitution

ΔL = (12 x 10⁻⁶)(150)(30)

Simplification

ΔL = 0054 m = 5.4 cm

An eagle carries a fish up 50 m into the sky using 90 N of force. How much work did the eagle do on the fish? (Work: W = Fd)

Leno4ka [110]

<span>Work: W = Fd. 50(distance) multiplied by 90(force) would equal 4500 J or, answer D</span>
