Which feature of the sun appears in cycles of about 11 years?

Physics
1 answer:
goldfiish [28.3K]3 years ago
8 0
The Sun's magnetic field goes through a cycle, called the solar cycle. Every 11 years or so, the Sun's magnetic field completely flips. This means that the Sun's north and south poles switch places. Then it takes about another 11 years for the Sun's north and south poles to flip back again.

How much heat is required to heat 2 kg of water from 25°C to 40°C?
Dominik [7]

Answer:

126000 J

Explanation:

Applying,

Q = cm(t₂-t₁).................. Equation 1

Where Q = Amount of heat, c = specifc heat capacity of water, m = mass of water, t₁ = Initial temperature, t₂ = Final temperature.

From the question,

Given: m = 2 kg, t₁ = 25°C, t₂ = 40°C

Constant: c = 4200 J/kg.°C

Substitute these value into equation 1

Q = 2×4200(40-25)

Q = 2×4200×15

Q = 126000 J

Suppose you monitor a large number (many thousands) of stars over a period of 3 years, searching for planets through the transit
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

2. You must be able to precisely measure variations in the star's brightness with time.

5. As seen from Earth, the planet's orbit must be seen nearly edge–on (in the plane of our line-of-sight).

6. You must repeatedly obtain spectra of the star that the planet orbits.

Explanation:

The transit method is a very important and effective tool for discovering new exoplanets (the planets orbiting other stars out of the solar system). In this method the stars are observed for a long duration. When the exoplanet will cross in front of theses stars as seen from Earth, the brightness of the star will dip. To observe this dip following conditions must be met:

1. The orbit of the planet should be co-planar with the plane of our line of sight. Then only its transition can be observed.

2. The brightness of the star must be observed precisely as the period of transit can be less than a second as seen from Earth. Also the dip in brightness depends on the size of the planet. If the planet is not that big the intensity dip will be very less.

3. The spectrum of the star needs to be studied and observe during the transit and normally to find out the details about the planets.

4. Also, the orbital period should be less than the period of observation for the transit to occur at least once.

It took a crew 9 h 36 min to row 8 km upstream and back again. If the rate of flow of the stream was 2 km/h, what was the rowing
babunello [35]

Answer:

3 km/h

Explanation:

Let's call the rowing speed in still water x, in km/h.

Rowing speed in upstream is: x - 2 km/h

Rowing speed in downstream is: x + 2 km/h

It took a crew 9 h 36 min ( = 9 3/5 = 48/5) to row 8 km upstream and back again. Therefore:

8/(x - 2) + 8/(x + 2) = 48/5      (notice that: time = distance/speed)

Multiplying by x² - 2², which is equivalent to (x-2)*(x+2)

8*(x+2) + 8*(x-2) =  (48/5)*(x² - 4)

Dividing  by 8

(x+2) + (x-2) = (6/5)*(x² - 4)

2*x = (6/5)*x² - 24/5

0 =  (6/5)*x² - 2*x - 24/5

Using quadratic formula

x = \frac{2 \pm \sqrt{(-2)^2 - 4(6/5)(-24/5)}}{2(6/5)}

x = \frac{2 \pm 5.2}{2.4}

x_1 = \frac{2 + 5.2}{2.4}

x_1 = 3

x_2 = \frac{2 - 5.2}{2.4}

x_2 = -1\; 1/3

A negative result has no sense, therefore the rowing speed in still water was 3 km/h
