Answer:

Period of the signal.

Explanation:

So, this question is all about a concept in physics or astronomy which is called or known as Radiation Astronomy and Galactic Nuclei that are active. This concept talks most about Quasars; a powerful radiating object which derives its power from black holes.

When You take a look at Quasars, we get the to know that the more you think you can see, the more they move away from us.

Thus, when "You are observing the radiation from a distant active galaxy and you notice that the amplitude of the signal varies in strength regularly over a certain period. The maximum possible size for the source of this radiation can now be calculated from the "PERIOD OF THE SIGNAL.

NB: not the amplitude but the period.

If the resultant of two velocity vectors of equal magnitude is also of the same magnitude, then which statement must be correct?
Tamiku [17]

The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°.

Why?

We can solve the problem and find the correct option using the Law of Cosine.

Let A and B, the given two sides and R the resultant (sum),

Then,

R=A=B

So, using the law of cosines, we have:

R^{2}=A^{2}+B^{2}+2ABCos(\alpha)\\ \\A^{2}=A^{2}+A^{2}+2*A*A*Cos(\alpha)\\\\0=A^{2}+2*A^{2}*Cos(\alpha)\\\\Cos(\alpha)=-\frac{A^{2}}{2*A^{2}}=-\frac{1}{2}\\\\\alpha =Cos(-\frac{1}{2})^{-1}=120\°

Hence, we have that the angle between the vectors is 120°. The correct option is C) The angle between the vectors is 120°

Have a nice day!

An Airbus A350 is initially moving down the runway at 6.0 m/s preparing for takeoff. The pilot pulls on the throttle so that the
alexdok [17]

Answer:

t=67.7s

Explanation:

From this question we know that:

Vo = 6m/s

a = 1.8 m/s2

D = 1500m

And we also know that:

X=V_{o}*t + \frac{a*t^{2}}{2}   Replacing the known values:

1500=6t+0.9*t^{2}    Solving for t we get 2 possible answers:

t1 = -44.3s   and t2 = 67.7s    Since negative time represents an instant before the beginning of the movement, t1 is discarded. So, the final answer is:

t = 67.7s

Galileo's observational contributionsGalileo Galilei was the first scientist to perform experiments in order to test his ideas.

<h2>Answer: </h2><h2>- Jupiter has orbiting moons.</h2><h2>- The Sun has sunspots and rotates on its axis.</h2><h2>- The Moon has mountains, valleys, and craters.</h2><h2>- Venus goes through a full set of phases.</h2>

Explanation:

In 1609 Galileo built a telescope, with which he observed mountains and craters on the Moon, discovered Jupiter’s major satellites and the next year he published these discoveries in his book <em>The Sidereal Messenger</em>.

In addition, Galileo observed that Venus presented phases (such as those of the moon) together with a variation in size; observations that are only compatible with the fact that Venus rotates around the Sun and not around Earth. This is because <u>Venus presented its smaller size when it was in full phase and the largest size when it was in the new one, when it is between the Sun and the Earth.  </u>

<u />

On the other hand, <u>although Galileo was not the first to observe sunspots</u>, he gave the correct explanation of their existence, which supported the idea that planets revolve around the Sun.

These observations and discoveries were presented by Galileo to the Catholic Church (which supported the geocentric theory at that time) as a proof that completely refuted Ptolemy's geocentric system and affirmed Copernicus' heliocentric theory.

A 1.80-kg monkey wrench is pivoted 0.250 m from its center of mass and allowed to swing as a physical pendulum. The period for s
asambeis [7]

Answer:

I=0.0987kg.m^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass M=1.80kg

Deviation d=0.250

Time t=0.940s

Generally the equation for moment of inertia is mathematically given by

 I=\frac{T}{2\pi}^2(mgd)

 I=\frac{0.94}{2.3.142}^2(1.80*9.8*0.250)

 I=0.0987kgm^2

If the force of a golf club on a golf ball is 200 N forward, what will the force of the ball on the club be? A. 200 N forward B.
Korolek [52]

The ball should put 200 N of force towards the golfer.

Newton's Third Law is every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

It's the ball exerting 200 N of force towards the club as well, but the opposite reaction is that it flies away.
