The object on the left is a discus, a piece of sports equipment made of a metal core, a plastic inner rim, and a metal outer rim

. The object on the right is a flying disc, a piece of sports equipment made of plastic. In sports games, both pieces of equipment are thrown causing them to rotate on a vertical axis. Does the discus or the flying disc have greater rotational inertia? Why? The has greater rotational inertia because it has more .

Suppose that you observe light emitted from a distant star to be at a wavelength of 525 nm. The wavelength of light to an observ
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The velocity of the star is 0.532 c.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of observer = 525 nm

Wave length of source = 950 nm

We need to calculate the velocity

If the direction is from observer to star.

From Doppler effect

\lambda_{0}=\sqrt{\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}}\times\lambda_{s}

Put the value into the formula

525=\sqrt{\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}}\times950

\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}=(\dfrac{525}{950})^2

\dfrac{c+v}{c-v}=0.305

c+v=0.305\times(c-v)

v(1+0.305)=c(0.305-1)

v=\dfrac{0.305-1}{1+0.305}c

v=−0.532c

Negative sign shows the star is moving toward the observer.

Hence, The velocity of the star is 0.532 c.

Heights of men on a baseball team have a​ bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 166 cm 166 cm and a standard deviation of 5 cm
kaheart [24]

Answer:

95 %

99.7 %

Explanation:

\mu = 166 cm = Mean

\sigma = 5 cm =  Standard deviation

a) 156 cm and 176 cm

166-5\times 2=156

166+5\times 2=176

From the empirical rule 95% of all values are within 2 standard deviation of the mean, so about 95% of men are between 156 cm and 176 cm.

b) 151 cm and 181 cm

166-5\times 3 =151

166+5\times 3=181

The empirical rule tells us that about 99.7% of all values are within 3 standard deviations of the mean, so about 99.7% of men are between 151 cm and 181 cm.

Determine the thrust that a boat with a volume of 1.2m³ receives when it is stranded at sea. The density of seawater is 1020kg /
puteri [66]

Answer:

The maximum possible up-thrust on the boat is 11,995.2 N

Explanation:

According to Archimedes' principle, the thrust received by an object immersed a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced;

The given parameter of the boat in sea water are;

The volume of the boat = 1.2 m³

The density of seawater = 1020 kg/m³

Density = Mass/Volume

Therefore, Mass = Density × Volume

The maximum volume of water that the boat displaces = 1.2 m³

The mass of the water displaced by the boat = (Density of seawater) × (Volume of seawater displaced)

∴ The maximum possible mass of the water displaced by the boat = 1.2 m³ × 1020 kg/m³ = 1224 kg

The maximum possible mass of the water displaced by the boat, m = 1224 kg

Weight = Mass, m × g

Where;

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

The up-thrust on the boat = The weight of the seawater displaced

∴ The maximum possible up-thrust on the boat = m × g = 1224 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 11,995.2 N

The maximum possible up-thrust on the boat = 11,995.2 N.

Olaf takes a picture of his dog using a digital camera. Which is true regarding the image of the dog detected by sensors in the
trasher [3.6K]

Answer: a. forms where light rays coming from the dog converge.

Explanation:

While photographing through digital camera, the light from the object through the lens converges and falls on image sensor.

The image breaks into many pixels and color and brightness of each pixel is measured and stored in form of number. This forms a digital image.

Thus, the correct option is a because the lens converges the light coming from the object onto the sensor.
