Answer: C. Expanding

Explanation:

When an object moves away from an observer, the light waves emitted by the object are stretched out making them have move towards the red end of the electromagnetic spectrum, where light has a longer wavelength. This phenomenon is known as the redshift (cosmological redshift). For most astronomical objects, the observed spectral lines are all shifted to longer wavelengths. It is caused solely by the expansion of the Universe and thus, the value of a redshift indicates the recession velocity of the expanding object, or its distance.

Redshift is opposed to the blueshift. Blue light wavelengths tend to be closer together hence blueshift light tends to be emitted from objects that are collapsing.

In models of magnetic and electric fields, why are field vectors depicted by arrows?
taurus [48]

The arrows in models of magnetic and electric fields show  both their magnitude and direction.

In Physics, a vector refers to a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. Hence, a vector always points in a given direction. The direction in which the arrow points is the direction of the vector in space.

In models of magnetic and electric fields, field vectors depicted by arrows  because they represent both their magnitude and direction. The length of the arrow shows magnitude.

Yamin is running 50 feet of No. 14 wire (with a cross section of 4,110 cmils) to a load that draws current of 11 amps. What appr
castortr0y [4]

Resistance per 1000 feet for gauge 14 wire is given as

R = 2.525 ohm

now if wire is of length 50 feet only then the resistance is given as

R = \frac{2.525}{1000}\times 50

R = 0.126 ohm

now if 11 A current flows through the wire then the voltage drop is given by ohm's law

V = iR

V = 11 \times 0.126

V = 1.4 Volts

so most appropriate answer in given options is

A. 1.8 Volts
