State whether the light from an object moving towards us will be red shifted or blue shifted and explain why.

denis23 [38]3 years ago

Answer:

The light from an object which is coming towards us will be blue shifted.

Explanation:

According to the Doppler effect the movement of the source towards the observer will lead to increase in thew apparent frequency by the Doppler formula,

f'=\frac{c+v_{o} }{c-v_{s} }f

Now when the there is increase in frequency then the wavelength is decrease because it is inversely related to frequency.

The wavelength of blue shift is lies in the range of 450-490 nm and the wavelength of red shift lies in the region of 635-700 nm.

Therefore, decrease in the wavelength will lead to blue shift.

Beings on spherical asteroid have observed that a large rock is approaching their asteroid in a collision course. At 7514 km fro
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

c. 4.582\times10^{21} kg

Explanation:

r_{i} = Initial distance between asteroid and rock = 7514 km = 7514000 m

r_{f} = Final distance between asteroid and rock = 2823 km = 2823000 m

v_{i} = Initial speed of rock = 136 ms⁻¹

v_{f} = Final speed of rock = 392 ms⁻¹

m = mass of the rock

M = mass of the asteroid

Using conservation of energy

Initial Kinetic energy of rock + Initial gravitational potential energy = Final Kinetic energy of rock + Final gravitational potential energy

(0.5) m v_{i}^{2} - \frac{GMm}{r_{i}} = (0.5) m v_{f}^{2} - \frac{GMm}{r_{f}} \\(0.5) v_{i}^{2} - \frac{GM}{r_{i}} = (0.5) v_{f}^{2} - \frac{GM}{r_{f}} \\(0.5) (136)^{2} - \frac{(6.67\times10^{-11}) M}{(7514000)} = (0.5) (392)^{2} - \frac{(6.67\times10^{-11}) M}{(2823000)} \\M = 4.582\times10^{21} kg

Rank the following objects by their accelerations down an incline (assume each object rolls without slipping) from least to grea
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

acceleration are

     hollow cylinder < hollow sphere < solid cylinder < solid sphere

Explanation:

To answer this question, let's analyze the problem. Let's use conservation of energy

Starting point. Highest point

          Em₀ = U = m g h

Final point. To get off the ramp

          Em_f = K = ½ mv² + ½ I w²

notice that we include the kinetic energy of translation and rotation

         

energy is conserved

        Em₀ = Em_f

        mgh = ½ m v² +1/2 I w²

angular and linear velocity are related

         v = w r

         w = v / r

we substitute

          mg h = ½ v² (m + I / r²)

          v² = 2 gh   \frac{m}{m+ \frac{I}{r^2} }

          v² = 2gh    \frac{1}{1 + \frac{I}{m r^2} }

this is the velocity at the bottom of the plane ,, indicate that it stops from rest, so we can use the kinematics relationship to find the acceleration in the axis ax (parallel to the plane)

         v² = v₀² + 2 a L

where L is the length of the plane

         v² = 2 a L

         a = v² / 2L

we substitute

         a = g \ \frac{h}{L} \  \frac{1}{1+ \frac{I}{m r^2 } }

let's use trigonometry

         sin θ = h / L

         

we substitute

         a = g sin θ   \ \frac{h}{L} \  \frac{1}{1+ \frac{I}{m r^2 } }

the moment of inertia of each object is tabulated, let's find the acceleration of each object

a) Hollow cylinder

      I = m r²

we look for the acerleracion

      a₁ = g sin θ    \frac{1}{1 + \frac{mr^2 }{m r^2 } }1/1 + mr² / mr² =

      a₁ = g sin θ    ½

b) solid cylinder

       I = ½ m r²

       a₂ = g sin θ  \frac{1}{1 + \frac{1}{2}  \frac{mr^2}{mr^2} } = g sin θ   \frac{1}{1+ \frac{1}{2} }

       a₂ = g sin θ   ⅔

c) hollow sphere

     I = 2/3 m r²

     a₃ = g sin θ   \frac{1}{1 + \frac{2}{3} }

     a₃ = g sin θ \frac{3}{5}

d) solid sphere

     I = 2/5 m r²

     a₄ = g sin θ  \frac{1 }{1 + \frac{2}{5} }

     a₄ = g sin θ  \frac{5}{7}

We already have all the accelerations, to facilitate the comparison let's place the fractions with the same denominator (the greatest common denominator is 210)

a) a₁ = g sin θ ½ = g sin θ      \frac{105}{210}

b) a₂ = g sinθ ⅔ = g sin θ     \frac{140}{210}

c) a₃ = g sin θ \frac{3}{5}= g sin θ       \frac{126}{210}

d) a₄ = g sin θ \frac{5}{7} = g sin θ      \frac{150}{210}

the order of acceleration from lower to higher is

   

     a₁ <a₃ <a₂ <a₄

acceleration are

     hollow cylinder < hollow sphere < solid cylinder < solid sphere

Gibbons, small Asian apes, move by brachiation, swinging below a handhold to move forward to the next handhold. A 9.0 kg gibbon
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

230 N

Explanation:

At the lowest position , the velocity is maximum hence at this point, maximum support force  T  is given by the branch.

The swinging motion of the ape on a vertical circular path , will require

a centripetal force  in upward direction . This is related to weight as follows

T - mg = m v² / R

R is radius of circular path . m is mass of the ape and velocity is 3.2 m/s

T =  mg -  mv² / R

T = 8.5 X 9.8 + 8.5 X 3.2² / .60  { R is length of hand of ape. }

T = 83.3 + 145.06

= 228.36

= 230 N ( approximately )
