Answer:

A, b, c

Explanation:

Doppler effect can be used to determine the speed at which stars and galaxies are moving towards or away from us. This mechanism can be either blueshift or redshift.

Redshift occurs when light that is observed to be coming from an object is moving away and it wavelength increases proportionally or moved towards the red spot of the spectrum. This mechanism is vice versa for a blue shift. Because blue light's frequency is higher than that of red light, the spectral lines of an astronomical light moving towards us displays a blue shift and the one moving away exhibits a red shift.

Answer:The answer is A,B and C

Explanation: it can be use to learn universe behavior,it is also use for the measurements of velocity of galaxy,and is can also be use to indicate,galaxy motion.

Doppler effect,measures the speed which star and galaxy are moving away from us or towards us. It shows the color of wavelength to be either red shift or blue shift.

A motorcycle that is slowing down uniformly. The motorcycle covers 1 ????m=1000 m in 80 sec⁡. The motorcycle then covers the nex

Lynna [10]

Answer:

Part a)

acceleration = -0.042 m/s/s

Part b)

initial speed = 14.17 m/s

final speed = 5.77 m/s

Explanation:

Part a)

Let the initial velocity of the motorcycle is

$v_i = v_o$

now at the end of 80 s let the speed is

$v_f = v_1$

after another 120 s let the speed will be

$v_f' = v_2$

now we know that

$d = \frac{v_i + v_f}{2} (t)$

$d = \frac{v_o + v_1}{2}(80)$

$1000 = 40(v_o + v_1)$

also we know that

$v_1 - v_o = a(80)$

also we have

$1000 = \frac{v_1 + v_2}{2}(120)$

$1000 = 60(v_1 + v_2)$

now we can say

$(v_2 + v_1) - (v_o + v_1) = \frac{50}{3} - \frac{50}{2}$

also we know

$v_2 - v_o = a(120 + 80)$

$-8.33 = 200 a$

$a = -0.042 m/s^2$

Part b)

now we have

$v_1 + v_o = 25$

$v_1 - v_o = (-0.042)(80)$

$v_1 = 10.83 m/s$

so the starting velocity of the trip is

$v_o = 25 - 10.83 = 14.17 m/s$

now speed after t = 200 s is given as

$v_2 = v_o + at$

$v_2 = 14.17 - (0.042)(200)$

$v_2 = 5.77 m/s$

A wheelbarrow is pushed with a force of 40 N. If 6,000 J of work is

stepladder [879]

Answer:

Distance = 150 meters

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Work done = 6,000 Joules

Force = 40 Newton

To find the total distance covered by the wheelbarrow;

Workdone = force * distance

Substituting into the formula, we have;

6000 = 40 * distance

Distance = 6000/40

Distance = 150 meters

Therefore, the total distance the wheelbarrow was pushed is 150 meters.

How much will the kinetic energy of a school bus increase if its velocity is tripled?

son4ous [18]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given a school bus.

Let say initially the school bus is traveling with speed "v"

Let assume mass of school bus is "m"

Then, the initial kinetic energy is

K.E_initial = ½mv²

Now, if the initial velocity is tripled,

Then, the new velocity is

v_new = 3v.

Note: the mass of the school does not change it is constant

Then, new kinetic energy is

K.E_new = ½m(v_new)²

v_new = 3v

Then,

K.E_new = ½m(3v)²

K.E_new = ½m × 9v²

K.E_new = 9 × ½mv²

Since K.E = ½mv²

Then,

K.E_new = 9 × K.E

So, the new kinetic energy will be 9 times the initial kinetic energy.

So, option D is correct

D. It will be nine times greater.
