The lowest surface temperature in the solar system (-200°c occurs on

1 answer:

3 0

The lowest surface temperature in the solar system was recorded on Uranus (-224 degrees Celsius). The temperature of a planet does not only depend on the amount of solar radiation that it receives but also on the amount of heat that it gives off. Because of Uranus' orientation it absorbs little radiation which makes it colder than Neptune although Neptune is further away from the Sun. <span />

A train whistle is 580 Hz when stationary. It is moving away from you at 18.8 m/s. What frequency do you hear?

Natalija [7]

Answer

613.63Hz

Explanation:

Fobs = (V/V-Vsource)Force

V=speed of sound

Fobs= (343/343-18.8)580

Fobs= 613.63Hz

Fobs = frequency observed

If two point sources of light are being imaged by this telescope, what is the maximum wavelength λ at which the two can be resol

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The maximum wavelength is 492 nm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular separation $\theta=3.0\times10^{-5}\ rad$

Suppose a telescope with a small circular aperture of diameter 2.0 cm.

We need to calculate the maximum wavelength

Using formula of angular separation

$\sin\theta=\dfrac{1.22\lambda}{d}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{d\sin\theta}{1.22}$

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{2.0\times\sin(3\times10^{-5})}{1.22}$

For small angle $\sin\theta\approx\theta$

$\lambda=\dfrac{0.02\times3\times10^{-5}}{1.22}$

$\lambda=4.92\times10^{-7}\ m$

$\lambda=492\ nm$

Hence, The maximum wavelength is 492 nm.

An astronomy student, for her PhD, really needs to estimate the age of a cluster of stars. Which of the following would be part

LiRa [457]

Answer:

A. plot an H-R diagram for the stars in the cluster.

Explanation:

A star cluster can be defined as a constellation of stars, due to gravitational force, which has the same origin.

The astronomy student would have to plot an H-R diagram for the stars in the cluster and determine the age of the cluster by observing the turn-off point. The turn-off is majorly as a result of gradual depletion of the source of energy of the star. Thus, it projects off the constellation.
