You observe a distant galaxy. You find that a spectral line, resulting from an electron transition in hydrogen, is shifted from

its normal location in the visible part of the spectrum into the infrared part of the spectrum. What can you conclude?

Answer:

The galaxy is moving away from the observer

Explanation: when a galaxy is moving away from us, the light we percieve from it is "streched". Since the wavelength has an inverse raltionship whith frequency, the longer the wavelength is, the lower the frequency. And lower frequencies correspond to red and infrarred light.

So when we see the light has shifted to the infrarred part of the spectrum, it means the source is traveling away from us, making the light waves we percieve streched and move from visible light to infrarred.

A bullet travels at 850 m/s. how long will it take a bullet to go 1 km?
Dmitrij [34]
The speed of bullet =
850 m/s

Distance given = 1 km = 1000m

S = D/t
t • S = D/t • t
St = D
St/S = D/S
t = D/S
t = 1000m/850m/s
t = 1.176 s

It will take the bullet 1.176 or about 1.18 seconds to go 1 km.

A high-pass filter consists of a 1.66 μF capacitor in series with a 80.0 Ω resistor. The circuit is driven by an AC source with
Julli [10]

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitor C=1.66\ \mu F

Resistor R=80.0\ \Omega

Peak voltage = 5.10 V

(A). We need to calculate the crossover frequency

Using formula of frequency

f_{c}=\dfrac{1}{2\pi R C}

Where, R = resistor

C = capacitor

Put the value into the formula

f_{c}=\dfrac{1}{2\pi\times80.0\times1.66\times10^{-6}}

f_{c}=1198.45\ Hz

(B). We need to calculate the V_{R} when f = \dfrac{1}{2f_{c}}

Using formula of  V_{R}

V_{R}=V_{0}(\dfrac{R}{\sqrt{R^2+(\dfrac{1}{2\pi fC})^2}})

Put the value into the formula

V_{R}=5.10\times(\dfrac{80.0}{\sqrt{(80.0)^2+(\dfrac{1}{2\pi\times\dfrac{1}{2}\times1198.45\times1.66\times10^{-6}})^2}})

V_{R}=2.280\ Volt

(C). We need to calculate the V_{R} when f = f_{c}

Using formula of  V_{R}

V_{R}=5.10\times(\dfrac{80.0}{\sqrt{(80.0)^2+(\dfrac{1}{2\pi\times1198.45\times1.66\times10^{-6}})^2}})

V_{R}=3.606\ Volt

(D). We need to calculate the V_{R} when f = 2f_{c}

Using formula of  V_{R}

V_{R}=5.10\times(\dfrac{80.0}{\sqrt{(80.0)^2+(\dfrac{1}{2\pi\times2\times1198.45\times1.66\times10^{-6}})^2}})

V_{R}=4.561\ Volt

Hence, This is the required solution.

Determine the binding energy per nucleon of an mg-24 nucleus. the mg-24 nucleus has a mass of 24.30506. a proton has a mass of 1
My name is Ann [436]

The mass of Mg-24 is 24.30506 amu, it contains 12 protons and 12 neutrons.

Theoretical mass of Mg-24:

The theoretical mass of Mg-24 is:

Hydrogen atom mass = 12 × 1.00728 amu = 12.0874 amu

Neutron mass = 12 x 1.008665 amu = 12.104 amu

Theoretical mass = Hydrogen atom mass + Neutron mass = 24.1913 amu

Note that the mass defect is:

Mass defect = Actual mass - Theoretical mass : 24.30506 amu- 24.1913 amu= 0.11376 amu

Calculating the binding energy per nucleon:

\frac{B.E.}{nucleon}=\frac{(0.11376amu)(931Mev/amu}{24nucleons}  = 4.41294 Mev/nucleon

So approximately 4.41294 Mev/necleon
