Explain why cooler stars are red and hotter stars are blue
sergey [27]
More cool stars produce much of their light in the red part of the spectrum, so you see them, and bam, the color red. More hot stars, however, produce much more of their light in the green and or yellow spectrums, with much more tinier amounts of red / blue. This balance of the colors, your eye, sees simply as white. The more hot something is, the greater frequency of radiation it produces! Blue light has a higher frequency than red light, so the stars that glow red are cooler, than the stars that glow blue. :)

Hope this helped!

A 600 kg car is at test and then accelerated to 5m/s , what is its original kinetic energy
ycow [4]

Answer:

0 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined as:

KE = 1/2 m v²

where m is mass and v is velocity.

The car starts at rest, so it has zero velocity.  Therefore, its initial kinetic energy is 0 J.

How much would it cost to cover the entire land area of the U.S. in dollar bills?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

  $900 trillion

Explanation:

If Alaska is 20% of the contiguous US, then the approximate area of interest is ...

  1200 miles × 3000 miles = 3.6×10^6 square miles.

The size of a dollar bill is about ...

  (6.5 cm)·(15.5 cm) = 100.75 cm^2

One mile is 160,934.4 cm, so 1 square mile is about ...

  1 mi^2 = (160,934.4 cm)^2 ≈ 2.59·10^10 cm^2

The number of dollars of interest is then ...

  (3.6 · 10^6 mi^2)(2.59 · 10^10 cm^2)/(100.75 cm^2) ≈ 9.3·10^14

  ≈ 930 × 10^12 . . . dollars

It would cost about 900 trillion dollars to cover the land area of the US in $1 bills.

Una bola de acero rueda y cae por el borde de una mesa desde 4ft por encima del piso. Si golpea el suelo a 5ft de la base de la
ycow [4]

Answer:

     \large\boxed{\large\boxed{10ft/s}}

Explanation:

The question, translated, is:

  • <em>A steel ball rolls and falls off the edge of a table from 4ft above the floor. If you hit the ground 5ft from the base of the table, what was your initial horizontal velocity?</em>

<em />

<h2>Solution</h2>

<em />

This is a projectile motion, for which, the equations that you will need are:

    V_x_0= V_x=x\cdot t

     y=y_0+Vy_o\cdot t-g\cdot t^2/2

<u />

<u>1. Calculate the time that it takes the ball to fall 4ft</u>

    0=4ft-g\cdot t^2/2\\\\t^2=2\times 4ft/( 32.174ft/s^2)=0.24865s^2\\\\t=0.4986s

<u />

<u>2. Calculate the horizontal velocity:</u>

     V_x_0= V_x=x\cdot t\\\\V_x_0=5ft/0.4986s=10.027ft/s\approx 10ft/s
