In which wavelength region(s) would we need to carry out observations in order to study the accretion disk around a white dwarf

in a binary system?

In “Ultraviolet light” and “X-ray” light wavelength regions are needed to carry out observations to study the “accretion disk” around “a white dwarf” in a “binary system”.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Occurrence of an accretion disk is due to presence of diffuse material around a white dwarf in orbital motion. White dwarf is constituted from electron-degenerate matter therefore also called as degenerate dwarf in binary system. Frictional forces and gravitational forces are responsible to compress and high “temperature” of the material, results with emission of “electromagnetic radiation”. “Accretion disks” of white dwarf radiate in the UV-rays and X-rays wavelength region of spectrum.

How many neutrons does an atom of Dubnium have in its nucleus
attashe74 [19]
Dubnium is a synthetic element ... Number 105.  It can be created
in a laboratory but it's not found in nature.

Fifteen (15) different isotopes of Dubnium have been created.  They all
have 105 protons in the nucleus of every atom, but they have anywhere
from 256 to 270 neutrons in each nucleus.

The most stable isotope of Dubnium is  ²⁶⁸Db , with 163 neutrons in the
nucleus.  That form of Dubnium atom has a 50-50 chance of surviving
for around 28 hours before it falls apart.

Last night Mookie Betts hit a baseball at 32.5 m/s at a 45° angle. Betts
podryga [215]

Answer:

a) Since the height of the baseball at 99 m was 8.93 m and the fence at that distance is 3m tall, the hit was a home run.

b) The total distance traveled by the baseball was 108.7 m.

Explanation:

a) To know if the hit was a home run we need to calculate the height of the ball at 99 m:

y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0_{y}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

Where:

y_{f}: is the final height =?

y_{0}: is the initial height = 1 m

v_{0_{y}: is the initial vertical velocity = v₀sin(45)

v₀: is the initial velocity = 32.5 m/s

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

t: is the time    

First, we need to find the time by using the following equation:

t = \frac{x}{v_{0_{x}}} = \frac{99 m}{32.5 m/s*cos(45)} = 4.31 s

Now, the height is:

y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0_{y}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2} = 1m + 32.5 m/s*sin(45)*4.31 s - \frac{1}{2}9.81 m/s^{2}*(4.31 s)^{2} = 8.93 m      

Since the height of the baseball at 99 m was 8.93 m and the fence at that distance is 3m tall, the hit was a home run.

b) To find the distance traveled by the baseball first we need to find the time of flight:

y_{f} = y_{0} + v_{0_{y}}t - \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

0 = 1 m + 32.5m/s*sin(45)t - \frac{1}{2}9.81 m/s^{2}t^{2}

1 m + 32.5m/s*sin(45)t - \frac{1}{2}9.81 m/s^{2}t^{2} = 0

By solving the above quadratic equation we have:

t = 4.73 s

Finally, with that time we can find the distance traveled by the baseball:

x = v_{0_{x}}*t = 32.5 m/s*cos(45)*4.73 s = 108.7 m

Hence, the total distance traveled by the baseball was 108.7 m.

I hope it helps you!
