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).

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

4 capacitors

Explanation:

Given

n = 5 --- conducting plates

Required

The number of capacitor (c)

This is calculated as:

c = n - 1

So, we have:

c = 5 - 1

c = 4

Students perform an experiment in which they drop two eggs with equal mass from a balcony. In the first trial, the egg hits the
shepuryov [24]

<u> Answer </u>

The impulse on the second trial is smaller is smaller than in the first trial.

<u>Explanation </u>

Impose of a body is that change in momentum during a time interval. If the change of momentum takes longer then, the impulse of a force is less. I a moving object hits a hard surface the rate of change of momentum is very high. e.i in the first trial, the egg breaks because it hits the hard surface(ground).

In the second trial, the foam cushion absorbs the shock and prolongs the time of impact with the egg hence decreasing the impulse.

An engine absorbs 1749 J from a hot reservoir and expels 539 J to a cold reservoir in each cycle. a. What is the engine’s effici
Masja [62]

Answer:

a)η = 69.18 %

b)W= 1210 J

c)P=3967.21 W

Explanation:

Given that

Q₁ = 1749 J

Q₂ = 539  J

From first law of thermodynamics

Q₁   = Q₂ +W

W=Work out put

Q₂=Heat rejected to the cold reservoir

Q₁ =heat absorb by hot  reservoir

W= Q₁- Q₂

W= 1210 J

The efficiency given as

\eta=\dfrac{W}{Q_1}

\eta=\dfrac{1210}{1749}

\eta=0.6918

η = 69.18 %

We know that rate of work done is known as power

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

P=\dfrac{1210}{0.305}\ W

P=3967.21 W

The average Intensity of the electromagnetic field due to sunlight at the surface of the earth is 1400 W/m^2. Calculate the maxi
Ann [662]

Answer:

1027 N/C

3.42 x 10⁻⁶ T

Explanation:

I = Intensity of electromagnetic field = 1400 W/m²

E₀ = Maximum value of electric field

Intensity of electromagnetic field is given as

I = (0.5) ε₀ E₀² c

1400 =  (0.5) (8.85 x 10⁻¹²) (3 x 10⁸) E₀²

E₀ = 1027 N/C

B₀ = maximum value of magnetic field

using the equation

E₀ = B₀ c

1027 = B₀ (3 x 10⁸)

B₀ = 3.42 x 10⁻⁶ T
