Answer:

Magnetic Field Strength

Explanation:

The effect of the splitting of the spectral lines of an atom into several of its components when a static magnetic field is present is referred to as Zeeman Effect.

The spectral lines here corresponds to the various discrete energy levels in the sun at which the emission and absorption of the different energy levels of the sun occurs.

The splitting of the spectral lines occurs due to the presence of the strong magnetic field on the surface of the sun.

Thus the Zeeman Effect is used to measure the magnetic field strength on the sun's surface.

The speed of sound in room temperature (20°C) air is 343 m/s; in room temperature helium, it is 1010 m/s. The fundamental freque
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: f = 927.55Hz

Explanation: Since the the tube is open-closed, the length of air and the wavelength of sound passing through the tube is given below

L = λ/4 where λ = wavelength.

speed of sound in air = v = 343m/s.

fundamental frequency of open closed tube = 315Hz

λ = 4L.

v = fλ

343 = 315 * 4L

343 = 1260 * L

L = 343/ 1260

L = 0.27m

In the same tube of length L = 0.27m but different medium ( helium), the speed of sound is 1010m/s.

The length of tube and wavelength are related by the formulae below

L = λ/4, λ=4L

λ = 4 * 0.27

λ = 1.087m.

v = fλ

1010 = f * 1.087

f = 1010/1.807

f = 927.55Hz

A long, straight metal rod has a radius of 5.75 cm and a charge per unit length of 33.3 nC/m. Find the electric field at the fol
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question;

We will make assumptions of certain values since they are not given but the process to achieve the end result will be the same thing.

We are to calculate the following task, i.e. to determine the electric field at the distances:

a)  at 4.75 cm

b)  at 20.5 cm

c) at 125.0 cm

Given that:

the charge (q) = 33.3 nC/m

= 33.3 × 10⁻⁹ c/m

radius of rod = 5.75 cm

a) from the given information, we will realize that the distance lies inside the rod. Provided that there is no charge distribution inside the rod.

Then, the electric field will be zero.

b) The electric field formula E = \dfrac{kq }{d}

E = \dfrac{9 \times 10^9 \times (33.3 \times 10^{-9}) }{0.205}

E = 1461.95 N/C

c) The electric field E is calculated as:

E = \dfrac{9 \times 10^9 \times (33.3 \times 10^{-9}) }{1.25}

E = 239.76 N/C

The human body is a system of systems that rely on each other to sustain a life. Explain how.
Misha Larkins [42]
The human body is connected in every way. All the organs are connected and help each other be alive. For example, the veins are connected to the heart, which help it by pumping blood and oxygen. If they weren’t there, the heart wouldn’t be able to sustain a life.
I really hope this gave you and ideas and helped you in some way:)
