How can we use variations in luminosity to set limits on the size of an active galactic nucleus?

Physics

morpeh [17]3 years ago

Answer:

If we see an object brighten in 1 hour, we know that the object cannot be longer than 1 light-hour in size. If it were, light from the far side of the object would start arriving at our telescopes more than an hour after the light from the front side and we would see the brightening take longer time than an hour to occur.

Explanation:

To understand the question above, let us discuss what variations in luminosity is:

variations in luminosity are two distinct word coming together to form a phenomenon. They are concepts that help us to bring to our understanding how brightness of the Sun significantly affects or impacts on global warming.

Variations as a concept can be describes as the total energy the sun generates in term of output or emission which also can be refereed to as the Luminosity ratio. Luminosity can also be refereed to as a concept caused by changing dark (sunspot) that bright structures on the solar disk during the 11-year sunspot cycle.

Two concentric current loops lie in the same plane. The smaller loop has a radius of 3.6 cm and a current of 12 A. The bigger lo
puteri [66]

Answer:

the radius of bigger loop = 6 cm

Explanation:

given,

two concentric current loops

smaller loop radius = 3.6 cm

]current in smaller loop = 12 A

current in the bigger loop = 20 A

magnetic field at the center of loop = 0

Radius of the bigger loop = ?

B_t = B_1 + B_2

0 = \dfrac{\mu_0I_1}{2R_1} +\dfrac{\mu_0I_2}{2R_2}

now, on solving

\dfrac{I_1}{R_1} = \dfrac{I_2}{R_2}

R_2 = I_2\dfrac{R_1}{I_1}

       = 20\times \dfrac{3.6}{12}

       = 6 cm

hence, the radius of bigger loop = 6 cm

If the length of the air column in the test tube is 14.0 cm, what is the frequency of this standing wave?
GaryK [48]

Answer:

f = 614.28 Hz

Explanation:

Given that, the length of the air column in the test tube is 14.0 cm. It can be assumed that the speed of sound in air is 344 m/s. The test tube is a kind of tube which has a closed end. The frequency in of standing wave in a closed end tube is given by :

f=\dfrac{nv}{4l}

f=\dfrac{1\times 344}{4\times 0.14}

f = 614.28 Hz

So, the frequency of the this standing wave is 614.28 Hz. Hence, this is the required solution.

A mass m1=1.5 kg rests on a 30 degree ramp with a coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.40. Mass m1 is tied to another mass m with
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

m = 2.31 Kg

Explanation:

given,

m₁ is the mass rest on the inclined plane = 1.5 Kg

inclination of plane = 30°

Kinetic friction = μ = 0.4

acceleration of the body = 2.68 m/s²

mass m is hanging  = ?

using equation to solve

T - m₁g sin θ - μ m₁g cos θ = m₁ a

on the block on inclined plane there will be acting tension T on the string,

mg sin θ will be the force acting opposite to the tension on the string and a frictional force will be acting which will oppose moment which will be equal to  μ m₁g cos θ

T = m₁(g sin θ +  μ g cos θ + a )

T = 1.5 (9.8 x sin 30° +  0.4 x 9.8 x cos 30°+ 2.68 )

T = 16.46 N

now, forces on the other side of pulley

m g - T = m a

m (g - a ) = T

m = \dfrac{16.46}{9.8-2.68}

m = 2.31 Kg

A spherically symmetric charge distribution has a charge density given by ρ = a/r , where a is constant. Find the electric field
Airida [17]
Charge dQ on a shell thickness dr is given by 

dQ = (charge density) × (surface area) × dr 

dQ = ρ(r)4πr²dr 

∫ dQ = ∫ (a/r)4πr²dr 

∫ dQ = 4πa ∫ rdr 

Q(r) = 2πar² - 2πa0² 

Q = 2πar² (= total charge bound by a spherical surface of radius r) 

Gauss's Law states: 

(Flux out of surface) = (charge bound by surface)/ε۪ 

(Surface area of sphere) × E = Q/ε۪ 

4πr²E = 2πar²/ε۪ 

<span>E = a/2ε۪
