Answer : Parallax

Explanation :

The difference in the position of an object when viewed from different points is called Parallax.  

The principle of parallax is used by the astronomers to find the distance of a planet or a star from earth.

A baseline of 1 astronomical unit is used by astronomers to find the distance between the stars and the earth.  Also, they measured tiny angles in arcseconds.

By doing calculations they found the distance of a star from earth is about 93 million miles or 150 million kilometers.

So, the correct option is (C).

A 50.0 kg crate is pulled 375 N of force applied to a rope. The crate slides without friction.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Hi there!

We can use the work-energy theorem to solve.

Recall that:

\large\boxed{W = \Delta KE = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2}

The initial kinetic energy is 0 J because the crate begins from rest, so we can plug in the given values for mass and final velocity:

W = \frac{1}{2}(50)(5.61^2) = 786.8025 J

Now, we can define work:

\large\boxed{W = Fdcos\theta}}

Now, plug in the values:

786.8025 = Fdcos\theta\\\\786.8025 = (375)(3.07)cos\theta

Solve for theta:

cos\theta = .6834\\\theta = cos^{-1}(.6834) = \boxed{46.887^o}

What's the difference between mechanical waves and vibrations
OlgaM077 [116]

A mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium. While waves can move over long distances, the movement of the medium of transmission—the material—is limited. Therefore, the oscillating material does not move far from its initial equilibrium position.
