Red shift in the spectrum of a star is always taken to mean that the source of the light is moving away from us.

That's the whole basis for the notion of the expanding universe, since we don't know of any other mechanism that can shift light toward longer wavelengths.

Its going away cuz red shift goes away (somehow i think of hell so think that u wanna go away from it)

Problem 9: Suppose you wanted to charge an initially uncharged 85 pF capacitor through a 75 MΩ resistor to 90.0% of its final vo
Bingel [31]

Answer:

t=14.678\times 10^{-3}s

Explanation:

Given:

Capacitance, C = 85 pF = 85 × 10⁻¹² F

Resistance, R = 75 MΩ = 75×10⁶Ω

Charge in capacitor at any time 't' is given as:

Q=Q_o(1-e^{-\frac{t}{RC}})

where,

Q₀ = Maximum charge = CE

E = Initial voltage

t = time

also, Q = CV

V= Final voltage = 90% of E = 0.9E

thus, we have

C\times 0.9E=CE(1-e^{-\frac{t}{75\times 10^6\ \times\ 85\times 10^{-12}}})

or

0.9=1-e^{-\frac{t}{75\times 10^6\ \times\ 85\times 10^{-12}}}

or

e^{-\frac{t}{75\times 10^6\ \times\ 85\times 10^{-12}}}=1-0.9=0.1

taking log both sides, we get

ln(e^{-\frac{t}{75\times 10^6\ \times\ 85\times 10^{-12}}})=ln(0.1)=ln(\frac{1}{10})

or

-\frac{t}{75\times 10^6\ \times\ 85\times 10^{-12}}=-ln(10)

or

t=75\times 10^6\ \times\ 85\times 10^{-12}\times ln{10}

or

t=14.678\times 10^{-3}s

Taylor Swift weighing 794 N gets on an elevator. The elevator uses 313 W of power to lift the person 22.0 m. How much time did t
mezya [45]

Answer:

55.80s

Explanation:

Power is calculated using the expression

Power = Work done/Time

Workdone= Force ×distance

Workdone = 794×22

Work done = 17468Joules

From the power formula

Time = Workdone/Power

Time = 17468/313

Time = 55.80seconds

The elevator takes 55.80seconds to life the Taylor
