What information could you gather about a star if its light curve had multiple
yanalaym [24]

The information that could be gathered about a star whose light curve has multiple symmetrical depths is ; The shape and surface variegation of the star

The light curves of a KBO ( moons and stars ) are measured as a rate of the brightness of a star in relation to time. therefore the study of the light curve having multiple symmetrical depths ( depth of brightness ) will give an information about the shape/size and the surface variegation of the star

Hence we can conclude that The information that could be gathered about a star whose light curve has multiple symmetrical depths is ; The shape and surface variegation of the star

The initial speed of a body is 7.1 m/s. What is its speed after 2.23 s if it accelerates uniformly at 2.64 m/s 2 ? Answer in uni
Nana76 [90]

13.0m/s

1.2m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial speed of the body = 7.1m/s

time taken = 2.23s

Acceleration = 2.64m/s²

Unknown:

Final speed = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

   a = \frac{V - U}{T}

a  = acceleration

V = final speed

U = initial speed

T = time taken

  Input the variables and solve for V;

 

   2.64 = \frac{V - 7.1}{2.23}  

  V - 7.1 = 5.9                              expression 1

  V = 5.9 + 7.1 = 13.0m/s

B

Using the same parameters, the speed after a uniform deceleration of -2.64m/s², the negative sign implies deceleration;

 from expression 1;

           V - 7.1  = -5.9

           V = -5.9 + 7.1 = 1.2m/s

Hanging from a horizontal beam are nine simple pendulums of the following lengths:
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Options d and e

Explanation:

The pendulum which will be set in motion are those which their natural frequency is equal to the frequency of oscillation of the beam.

We can get the length of the pendulums likely to oscillate with the formula;

L =\frac{g}{w^{2} }

where g=9.8m/s

         ω= 2rad/s to 4rad/sec

when ω= 2rad/sec

L= \frac{9.8}{2^{2} }

L = 2.45m

when  ω= 4rad/sec

L=\frac{9.8}{4^{2} }

L = 9.8/16

L=0.6125m

L is between 0.6125m and 2.45m.

This means only pendulum lengths in this range will oscillate.Therefore pendulums with length 0.8m and 1.2m will be strongly set in motion.

Have a great day ahead

In Ch. 1.6, the authors point out that interstellar space is not actually as empty as it seems. There is actually a lot of diffu
wel

Answer:

very small solid particles called interstellar dust.

Explanation:

In the space between the stars there is gas and dust, which represent at least 20% of the mass of our galaxy. In the Milky Way it is considered that there is a gas density of approximately 0.2 to 0.5 atoms / cm3 in the surroundings of the Sun; with respect to the dust an average of 1 g / cm3 is estimated.

Gas is about atoms and molecules, mainly hydrogen; In order of abundance, helium, carbon, oxygen, nitrogen and iron follow. On the other hand, the dust is tiny particles, generally smaller than 10 microns; the dust does not shine and therefore it is only distinguished when it is projected on bright regions (nebulae or clusters).

Interstellar matter is mainly concentrated towards the plane of the galaxy, in the strip corresponding to the Milky Way; there you can see bright nebulas of diffuse character called nebulas. These nebulae are classified according to three types: (a) bright or emission nebulae, (b) reflection nebulae and (c) planetary nebulae.

Hydrogen appears both ionized and neutral; The bright nebulae are composed of ionized hydrogen and other ionized elements. Non-ionized (neutral) hydrogen is found in the spiral arms of the Milky Way and can be detected through radio waves.
