The stars, Rigel and Betelgeuse, are both found in the constellation, Orion. Rigel is a blue supergiant, and Betelgeuse is a red

supergiant. Which of the following correctly compares the temperatures of Rigel and Betelgeuse?
a
Rigel is hotter than Betelgeuse, because blue stars are hotter than red stars.
b
Betelgeuse is hotter than Rigel, because red stars are hotter than blue stars.
c
Rigel and Betelgeuse are close to the same temperature, because they are both super giants.
d
Betelgeuse and Rigel are close to the same temperature, because they are about the same distance from the Sun.

Answer: a

Explanation: The color of a star is linked to its surface temperature. The hotter the star, the shorter the wavelength of light it will emit. The hottest ones are blue or blue-white, which are shorter wavelengths of light. Cooler ones are red or red-brown, which are longer wavelengths.

Determine the change in velocity of a car that starts at rest and has a final velocity of 20 miles per second North
Katen [24]

Answer: The change in velocity is 20mph

Explanation: The change in velocity is the difference between the final velocity and the initial velocity.

The initial velocity is 0 and the final velocity is 20mph.

Using the formula dV=Vf-Vi

dV=20-0

dV=20mph North

If an electric current of 8.50 A flows for 3.75 hours through an electrolytic cell containing copper-sulfate (CuSO4) solution, t
muminat

Answer:

75.5g

Explanation:

From the ionic equation, we can write

CU^{2+}+SO^{2-}_{4}\\

next we find the number of charge

Note Q=it

for i=8.5A, t=3.75 to secs 3.75*60*60=13500secs

hence

Q=8.5*13500\\Q=114750C

Since one faraday represent one mole of electron which equal 96500C

Hence the number of mole produced by 114750C is

114750/96500=1.2mol

The mass of copper produced is

mol=\frac{mass}{molar mass} \\mass=mole*molar mass\\mass=1.2*63.5\\mass=75.5g

Hence the amount of copper produced is 75.5g

Two families meet at the park at 10:00am. Each family uses a different way of transportation to get there. The Gonzalez family l
pav-90 [236]

Firstly, we need to make the times and distance equal to compare.

1hr=60mins
Gonz drove 90km in 60mins,so they would drive 45km in 30 mins dividing it by 2.
Because the Rivs had gone 30km in 30mins, Gonz were faster.

For the adverage speed, we should first add the speed of each family in mph , so 90+60, which equals 150 and divide that by 2 because there are 2 speeds so the average speed is 75mph.

P.S English is my second language so tell me if you don't understand something and I will try and explain.

A long wire carrying a 5.0 A current perpendicular to the xy-plane intersects the x-axis at x= - 2.0 cm . A second, parallel wir
mario62 [17]

Answer:

a . 0.35cm

b.  11.33cm

Explanation:

a. Given both currents are in the same direction, the null point lies in between them. Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4-x

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in between the wires:

\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi x}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi(4-x)}\\\\5/x=\frac{3.5}{4-x}\\\\x=2.35cm\\\\N=2.35-2=0.35cm

Hence, for currents in same direction, the point is 0.35cm

b. Given both currents flow in opposite directions, the null point lies on the other side.

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in outside the wires:

Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4+x:

\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi(4+ x)}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi x}\\\\5/(4+x)=\frac{3.5}{x}\\\\x=9.33cm\\\\N=9.33+2=11.33cm

Hence, if currents are in opposite directions the point on x-axis is 11.33cm
