The Sun’s surface temperature is about 5800 K and its spectrum peaks at 5000 Å. An O-type star’s surface temperature may be 40,0
nirvana33 [79]

(a) 7.25\cdot 10^{-8}m

Wien's displacement law is summarized by the equation

\lambda = \frac{b}{T}

where

\lambda is the peak wavelength

b=2.898\cdot 10^{-3} m \cdot K is Wien's displacement constant

T is the absolute temperature at the surface of the star

For an O-type star, we have

T = 40,000 K

Therefore, its peak wavelength is

\lambda = \frac{2.898\cdot 10^{-3}}{40000}=7.25\cdot 10^{-8}m

(b) Ultraviolet

We can answer this part by looking at the wavelength range of the different parts of the electromagnetic spectrum:

gamma rays  

X-rays  1 nm - 1 pm

ultraviolet  380 nm - 1 nm

visible light  750 nm - 380 nm

infrared  25 \mu m - 750 nm

microwaves  1 mm - 25 \mu m

radio waves  > 1 mm

The peak wavelength of this star is

\lambda=7.25\cdot 10^{-8}m=72.5 nm

Therefore, it falls in the ultraviolet region.

(c) No

The Keck telescopes is actually a system of 2 telescopes in the Keck Observatory, located in Mauna kea, Hawai.

The two telescopes, thanks to several instruments, are able to detect  much of the electromagnetic radiation in the visible ligth and infrared parts of the spectrum. However, they are not able to detect light in the ultraviolet region: therefore, they cannot observe the star mentioned in the previous part of the problem.

water wood neon gas arrange the substances in the table from the most to the least ordered particle arrangement. a) wood, water,
mojhsa [17]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The correct arrangement of the substances according to the <span>most to the least ordered particle arrangement should be wood, water and neon gas. Wood should be the first since it is solid which has the most ordered structure as compared to the liquid and a gas. The neon gas is the last since as a gas it has the least ordered structure.</span>

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

<h2>1) there is no work done on the system</h2><h2>2) A) Using a lever to lift 100 newtons up to 4 meters on to a shelf</h2><h2 /><h2>3) P = 140 W</h2><h2>4) D) In a closed system, a system that isolated from its surrounds, the total energy of the system is conserved</h2>

Explanation:

1) As we know that work done is the product of force and the displacement of the point of action where force is applied

So here we have

W = 0

as there is no displacement in the direction where the force is applied

2)As we know that work is product of force and displacement

So we will have

W_1 = 100 \times 4 = 400 J

W_2 = 200 \times 1 = 200 J

W_1 = 200 \times 1 = 200 J

W_1 = 100 \times 3 = 300 J

So maximum work is done on

A) Using a lever to lift 100 newtons up to 4 meters on to a shelf

3)

As we know that power is rate of work done

so we have

P = \frac{W}{t}

P = \frac{420}{3}

P = 140 W

4)

As per energy conservation we know that

D) In a closed system, a system that isolated from its surrounds, the total energy of the system is conserved
