The peak luminosity of a white dwarf supernova is around 1010 Lsun, and it remains brighter than 108 Lsun for about 150 days. In

comparison, the luminosity of a bright Cepheid variable star is about 10,000 Lsun. The Hubble Space Telescope is sensitive enough to make accurate measurements of apparent brightness for Cepheid variable stars up to a distance of about 100 million light-years. Estimate the distance of a fading white dwarf supernova of luminosity 108 Lsun whose apparent brightness is comparable to that of a bright Cepheid variable star 100 million light-years from Earth. How does the distance of that supernova compare to the size of the observable universe?

g A simple pendulum (consisting of a point mass suspended by a massless string) on the surface of the earth has a period of 1.00
leonid [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for time period of a pendulum is given as follows :

T = 2π\sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

l is length of pendulum and g is acceleration due to gravity .

So time period of pendulum  is not dependent on the mass of the pendulum . If time period is same and length is also the same then acceleration due to gravity will also be the same . Hence the acceleration due to gravity at distant planet will be same as that on the earth.

List the elements of the APA's definition of a psychological disorder. (
Elina [12.6K]

What exactly is a psychological disorder? How is a psychological disorder diagnosed? Defining exactly what constitutes a mental disorder can be tricky and, definitions have changed over time.

The first problem is that psychologists must first decide exactly how to define disorder. How do you determine if there is something psychologically wrong or unhealthy about a person? How do you decide what's normal and what's abnormal?

If you were to define disorder as something that lies outside of the statistical norm, then people who are considered exceptionally talented or gifted in a particular area would be regarded as abnormal. So rather than focus on actions that are considered outside of the normal statistically speaking, psychologists tend to concentrate on the results of those behaviors. Behaviors that are considered maladaptive and cause significant personal distress and interrupt daily functioning are more likely to be labeled as abnormal.

Today many psychologists agree that psychological disorders are characterized by both personal distress and impairment in multiple areas of life.

igomit [66]

Answer: Linear speed is 1,670 Kph.

Explanation:

If we assume that the earth is a perfect sphere, and that is spinning itself once every roughly 24 hr, we can get the angular velocity of the Earth, in magnitude, as follows:

ω = 2π / 24 Hr

Now, by definition, an angle is the relationship between the arc s, and the radius r, so we can replace these values in the angular velocity expression, as follows:

ω = (Δs / r) . 1/Δt ⇒ ω = (Δs/Δt). 1/r

But, by definition, Δs/At, is just the linear velocity, v, so we can conclude the following;

ω = v/r ⇒ v = ω. r

So, we can get v, as follows:

v = 2π /24 hr . 6378 Km = 1,670 Km/hr.

A body of mass 2 kg at O has an initial velocity of 3m/s along OE and it is subjected to a force of 4N perpendicular to OE the d
timofeeve [1]
Perpendicular acceleration:
F = ma
a = 4 / 2 = 2 m/s²

Perpendicular distance:

s = ut + 1/2 at²
s = 0 x 4 + 1/2 x 2 x 4²
s = 16 m

Horizontal distance:
s = ut
= 3 x 4
= 12 m

Total distance = √(12² + 16²)
= 20 m.
