Answer: V = 4.35 × 10^12 m/s

Explanation: To calculate Rigel velocity relative to us, we should use doppler effect formula.

Fo = (c ) / ( c - Vs) × f

Fo/f = (c ) / ( c - Vs)

4.26 × 10^10 = (3×10^8) 6.17×10^14/(3×10^8 - V)

4.26×10^10/6.17×10^14 = (3×10^8)/(3×10^8 - V)

6.9×10^-5 = (3×10^8)/(3×10^8 - V)

Cross multiply

20713.13 - 6.9×10^-5V = 3×10^8

Collect the like terms

6.9×10^-5V = 3×10^8 - 20713.13

6.9×10^-5V = 299979286.9

V = 299979286.9/6.9×10^-5

V = 4.3475 × 10^12 m/s

Therefore, Rigel's velocity relative to us is 4.3475 × 10^12 m/s

Two students walk in the same direction along a straight path, at a constant speed one at 0.90 m/s and the other at 1.90 m/s. a.
creativ13 [48]

Answer: a) 456.66 s ; b) 564.3 m

Explanation: The time spend to cover any distance a constant velocity is given by:

v= distance/time so t=distance/v

The slower student time is: t=780m/0.9 m/s= 866.66 s

For the faster students t=780 m/1,9 m/s= 410.52 s

Therefore the time difference is 866.66-410.52= 456.14 s

In order to calculate the distance that faster student should  walk

to arrive 5,5 m before that slower student, we consider the follow expressions:

distance =vslower*time1

distance= vfaster*time 2

The time difference is 5.5 m that is equal to 330 s

replacing in the above expression we have

time 1= 627 s

time2 = 297 s

The distance traveled is 564,3 m

The chart is quantitative and the beakers are qualitative.

Quantitative things always include numbers or data.
Qualitative things are based on observation.

Light shines through a single slit whose width is 5.7 x 10-4 m. A diffraction pattern is formed on a flat screen located 4.0 m a
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

\lambda = 570\ nm

Explanation:

Given,

Width of slit, W = 5.7 x 10⁻⁴ m

Distance between central bright fringe, L = 4 m

distance between central bright fringe and first dark fringe, y = 4 mm

Diffraction angle

tan \theta = \dfrac{y}{L}

tan \theta = \dfrac{4}{4\times 10^3}

\theta = 0.0572

Now.

W sin \theta = m \lambda

m = 1

5.7 \times 10^{-4} \times sin (0.0572) = 1 \times \lambda

\lambda = 569.99 \times 10^{-9}\ m

\lambda = 570\ nm
