A star has a spectrum shift exhibiting a red shift. What can you conclude about the distance from earth to that star

2 answers:

6 0

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)

The figure shows a water-filled syringe with a 4.0-cm-long needle. What is the gauge pressure of the water at the point P, where

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Pressure at P point is given as

$P_p = 1.042 \times 10^5 Pa$

Explanation:

As we know by poiseuille's equation of viscous flow of liquid through cylindrical pipe

$Q = \frac{\Delta P \pi r^4}{8\eta L}$

here we know that

L = 4 cm

$\eta = 1 \times 10^{-3} Pa s$

r = 1 mm

Q = flow rate

$\pi r^2 v = \frac{\Delta P \pi r^4}{8\eta L}$

$v = \frac{\Delta P r^2}{8 \eta L}$

$10 = \frac{\Delta P (10^{-3})^2}{8(1 \times 10^[-3})(0.04)}$

$3.2 \times 10^{-3} = \Delta P (10^{-6})$

$\Delta P = 3.2 \times 10^3 Pa$

now we have

$P_p - P_{atm} = 3.2 \times 10^3$

$P_p = 1.01 \times 10^5 + 3.2 \times 10^3$

$P_p = 1.042 \times 10^5 Pa$

An object has density rho.

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

a. the density will not change

b. D' = 0.125 D

So, the density will change by a factor of 0.125

Explanation:

Density is the material property and the value of density is constant for all solid materials. So, when the dimensions of the a solid are increased, while the material is same, then the material must be added to the object for increasing its dimensions. So, with the increase in the volume, the mass of the object also increases. And as a result the density of the object remains constant.

Since, here the material remains the same.

Therefore, the density will not change

Density = mass/Volume

D = m/V ------------ equation (1)

Now,

V = LWH ----------- equation (2)

Now, if each dimension increases by a factor of 2, the volume becomes:

V' = (2L)(2W)(2H)

V' = 8 LWH

using equation (2)

V' = 8 V

So, for constant mass, density becomes:

D' = m/V'

D' = m/8V

using equation (1)

D' = D/8

D' = 0.125 D

So, the density will change by a factor of 0.125

3. Describe how sound signals can be transmitted from a cell phone and received by another cell phone.

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

The sound energy travels through the air into the microphone and makes the diaphragm inside vibrate. The sound energy in your voice makes the air vibrate. Vibrating air carries the sound energy into the phone. The diaphragm in the mouthpiece microphone converts sound energy into electrical energy.

Explanation: Hope this helps! :)

A ball is thrown vertically down from the edge of a cliff with a speed of 4 m/s, how high is the cliff, if it took 12 s for the

Vesna [10]

Answer:

The height of the cliff from which the ball was dropped from is 224.4m.

\overline{v}={\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}}

Given the data in the question;

Initial velocity of the ball;

Time taken by the ball to reach the ground;

Distance or Height of the cliff from which the ball was thrown from;

To get the height of the Cliff, we use the Second Equation of Motion:

Where s is the distance or height, is the initial velocity, t is the time and a is the acceleration. Since the ball was thrown down from a certain height (cliff), its is now under the influence of gravity. acceleration due to gravity;

Hence, the equation becomes

We substitute the given values into the equation

Therefore, the height of the cliff from which the ball was dropped from is 224.4m
