Answer:

B it decreases

Explanation:

the movement of a positive test charge in the direction of an electric field would be like a mass falling downward within Earth's gravitational field. Both movements would be like going with nature and would occur without the need of work by an external force. This motion would result in the loss of potential energy

The x vector component of a displacement vector has a magnitude of 86.2 m and points along the negative x axis. The y vector com
Flauer [41]

Answer:

(a) Magnitude of Vector = 207.73 m

(b) Direction = 65.48°

Explanation:

(a)

The formula to find out the magnitude of a resultant vector with the help of its x and y components is given as follows:

Magnitude\ of\ Vector = \sqrt{d_{x}^{2} + d_{y}^{2}} = \sqrt{(86.2\ m)^{2} + (189\ m)^{2}}\\\\

<u>Magnitude of Vector = 207.73 m</u>

(b)

For the direction of the vector we have the formula:

Direction = tan^{-1}(\frac{y}{x})\\\\Direction = tan^{-1}(\frac{189\ m}{86.2\ m})\\\\

<u>Direction = 65.48°</u>

Explain how the visible light spectrum is a spectrum within a spectrum.
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

In the visible spectrum of light, the color of the light depends on the frequency. The visible spectrum is always the same for a rainbow or the separated light from a prism. The order of colors is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.

According to your graph, does the wave speed change with wave length?
fiasKO [112]

Yes

Explanation:

From the graph, we can deduce that the wavelength changes with the speed of the wave.

This is a simple linear graph. A linear graph has a steady gradient and it shows two variables that increases proportionately.

Using the graph, we can establish that as the wavelength of the wave increases the time taken for one wave to pass through increases.

The speed of a wave is given as:

                     V = fλ

   f is the frequency of the wave i.e the number of waves that passes through a point per unit of time

  λ is the wavelength of the wave

The vertical axis on the graph shows the time for 1 wave trip, this is the wave period, T

            f = \frac{1}{T}

Therefore;

    speed of the wave = \frac{λ}{T}

This can be evaluated by solving slope of the graph and finding the inverse.

We can see that as the speed of the wave changes, the wavelength will change.

In a white dwarf, electrons are packed in so tightly that they physically cannot get any closer to one another. This provides an
Natalka [10]

Answer:

The white dwarf will start to get darker.

Explanation:

The white dwarf will keep is spherical shape, since electron degeneracy pressure (outward direction) will counteract the force of gravity due to its own mass (inward direction) which lead to hydrostatic equilibrium.

A nuclear reaction occurs when light elements combine into heavier elements (that is know as nucleosynthesis). Exist different ways in which that can happen, but the most common is the Proton-Proton chain. In that fusion reaction, two atoms of Hydrogen combine to form helium, while the fusion takes place, photons are created.

Photons are the elementary particles that constitute light and taking into account that in white dwarfs the production of photons has ceased because there are no nuclear fusions, then, it is clear that the white dwarf will start to get darker as it cools since is emitting into space the photons produced in the past.
