Answer:

doppler effect

Explanation:

When the relative motion of two bodies results in the wavelength becoming shorter this means that the bodies are getting closer. This is known as blue shift.

When the relative motion of two bodies results in the wavelength becoming longer this means that the bodies are getting farther. This is known as red shift.

Collectively this phenomenon is known as the Doppler effect.

A bullet of 10g strikes a sand bag at a speed of 100 m/s and gets embedded after travelling
Tasya [4]

Answer:

Solving for time :

(There are 4 formulas from linear motion. These formulas are very helpful as it allows us to prevent complicated calculations. Choose among the four that has : 1. The most constants known

2. The unknown constant that we want to solve)

s = (1/2)(u+v)t <--- one of the formulas

from linear motion

s (distance) = 0.05m

u (initial velocity) = 100m/s

v (final velocity) = 0 m/s (it stops)

t (time taken for change in velocity) = to be found

0.05 = (1/2)(100+0)t

t = 0.001 seconds

Solving for the resistant force :

Since the bullet hits the bag with an impulsive force and stops, the force that stops the bullet is the resistant force.

When the bullet stops :

F net = 0

F r = F imp

F r = (mu -mv)/t

F r = (0.01x100-0.01x0)/0.001

F r = 1/0.001

F r = 1000N

What causes the bright lines seen in the emission spectrum?
Snezhnost [94]
Base in your questions that ask what cause the bright lines seen in the emission spectrum and i think the best answer to that is the H2 gas is used when protons was heated so the electron absorb all the photons and get exited and resulted by given of a light.

suppose the same chest is at rest. you push it horizontally with force of 110N but it does not budge. What is the contact force
Radda [10]

Answer:

110 N

Explanation:

When a force is applied on a body and body does not move, it means the body remains at rest.

In this condition, there is a contact force between the body and the floor which is called static friction.

Th static friction force is a self adjusting force and comes into play when the body is at rest.

Here, the applied force is 110 N and the chest is not moving, that means a static friction force is acting between the chest and the floor. This static friction force is the force of contact between the chest and the floor. The static friction force is equal to the applied force when the body does not move.

So, the contact force between the chest and the floor is 100 N.

What class of solids is made up of regularly repeating subunits of tightly packed, orderly arrangements of atoms, ions, or molec
xxTIMURxx [149]
The answer is crystalline solid. Crystalline solids have a regular arrangement of particles, because of that, they possess definite geometry.
This means that if you take a look at the crystal under the microscope you would notice that there is a pattern that constantly repeats. This pattern is called a unit cell, and crystal is made up of stacked unit cells.

Imagine a box sitting on a shelf. What forces are acting on the box?
mel-nik [20]

In case of an object sitting at rest on another base, there are two equal and opposite forces – Normal force and the gravity.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation: </u>

When an object is placed at rest position on another object, there is a force exerted by the surfaces of the two contact objects. This force is denoted as Normal Force.

When an object such as a box is placed on a shelf, its surface exerts a contact force on the base of the shelf- The Normal force directed upward. Meanwhile, the gravity stays at its action and tries to pull the box towards itself.  

Both of these forces however are equal and opposite and therefore, there is zero net force on the box. That's why it remains at rest, holding on Newton's third law.
