1. it is difficult to search for it . Because infrared rays will never penetrate through earth atmosphere.

2. we are unaware of how it looks like and we only know it is red and will glow . A damaged star also looks like this.

3. Dust also makes is hard to detect Dyson spheres . So we will get confused between Dyson sphere and a star surrounded by dust.

Answer:

A dyson sphere is a hypothetical structure, it is thought of as a way in which an advanced civilization could harness the energy of a star.

Detecting dyson spheres can be a way to find signs of life in space, since they are a sign of a civilization capable of contructing such mega structure.

The problem with detecting them is that dyson spheres surround the star, making it less visible for telescopes on Earth.

But the spheres would radiate infrared radiation, so they could be detected by infrared detectors.

A tin can has a volume of 1100 cm³ and a mass of 80 g. Approximately how many grams of lead shot can it carry without sinking in

Kruka [31]

Answer:

1020g

Explanation:

Volume of can= $1100cm^3=1100\times 10^{-6}m^3$

$1cm^3=10^{-6}m^3$

Mass of can=80g= $\frac{80}{1000}=0.08kg$

1Kg=1000g

Density of lead= $11.4g/cm^3=11.4\times 10^{3}=11400kg/m^3$

By using $1g/cm^3=10^3kg/m^3$

We have to find the mass of lead which shot can it carry without sinking in water.

Before sinking the can and lead inside it they are floating in the water.

Buoyancy force = $F_b=Weight of can+weight of lead$

$\rho_wV_cg=m_cg+m_lg$

Where $\rho_w=10^3kg/m^3=$ Density of water

$m_c=$ Mass of can

$m_l=$ Mass of lead

$V_c=$ Volume of can

Substitute the values then we get

$1000\times 1100\times 10^{-6}=0.08+m_l$

$1.1-0.08=m_l$

$m_l=1.02 kg=1.02\times 1000=1020g$

$1 kg=1000g$

Hence, 1020 grams of lead shot can it carry without sinking water.

The PE of the box that is on a 2.0 m high self is 1600 J. What is the power expelled to lift the box to this height in 10.0 seco

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

160 W

Explanation:

Power is the ratio of work to time:

(1600 J)/(10 s) = 160 J/s = 160 W

Two cellists, one seated directly behind the other in an orchestra, play the same 220-Hz note for the conductor who is directly

Llana [10]

Answer:

d= 1.56 m

Explanation:

In order to have a constructive interference, the path difference between the sources of the sound, must be equal to an even multiple of the semi-wavelength, as follows:

⇒ d = d₂ - d₁ = 2n*(λ/2)

The minimum possible value for this distance, is when n=1, as it can be seen here:

dmin = λ

In any wave, there exists a fixed relationship between the wave speed, the frequency and the wavelength:

v = λ*f

If v = vsound = 343 m/s, and f = 220 1/s, we can solve for λ:

λ = $\frac{v}{f} = \frac{343 m/s}{220(1/s)} = 1.56 m$

⇒ dmin =λ = 1.56 m
