Two students are looking at a brightly lit full Moon, illuminated by the reflected light from the Sun. Consider thefollowing dis

cussion between the two students about what the spectrum of moonlight would look like.Student
1: I think that moonlight is just reflected sunlight, so we will see the Sun’s absorption line spectrum.Student
2: I disagree.An absorption spectrum has to come froma hot, dense object. Since the Moon is not a hot, dense object, it can’t give off an aborption line spectrum.Do you agree or disagree with either or both of the students

Answer:

I agree with the student that think that moonlight is just reflected sunlight, so we will see the Sun’s absorption line spectrum.

Explanation:

Absorption spectrums occur when a white light is passed through a gas. Or simply a light from a hot source passes through a cooler gas. The moon itself is a reflection of the sun, so when it reflects the light from the sun, absorption spectrum lined can be seen. Note that it is the hot gases like hydrogen, oxygen etc in or around the sun that cause absorption spectrum.

Be sure to answer all parts. Assume the diameter of a neutral helium atom is 1.40 × 102 pm. Suppose that we could line up helium
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The number of atoms are 1.86\times10^{8}.

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter D = 1.40\times10^{2}\ pm

D=1.40\times10^{2}\times10^{-12}\ m

Distance = 2.60 cm

We calculate the number of atoms

Using formula of numbers of atoms

Number\ of\ atoms =\dfrac{2.60\times10^{-2}}{1.40\times10^{2}\times10^{-12}}

Number\of\atoms =1.86\times10^{8}

Hence, The number of atoms are 1.86\times10^{8}.

Two trains are headed towards each other on the same track unbeknownst to the engineers. One departs San Francisco. Its average
aalyn [17]

Answer:

7,166 hrs =430  minutes

Explanation:

Since both train are on the same track, going one towards the other, the relative speed is the addition of both, then the time they need to meet, and consistently crash, is the time that (65mph + 55 mph)=120mph need to travel the total distance of 860 miles, of course in this case one part is traveled by the first train and the rest by the other. Then to find the time we use a three rule

1 h --->120mi

X ---->860mi, then X=(860 mi* 1h)/120 mi = 43/6 hrs= 7,16666 hrs, turning this into minutes need that we notice 1h=60min, then 43/6 hrs *60 min/hrs = 430 minutes.

Two large conducting parallel plates A and B are separated by 2.4 m. A uniform field of 1500 V/m, in the positive x-direction, i
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

a. 1.027 x 10^7 m/s b. 3600 V c. 0 V and d. 1.08 MeV

Explanation:

a. KE =1/2 (MV^2) where the M is mass of electron

b. E = V/d

c. V= 0 V (momentarily the pd changes to zero)

d KE= 300*3600 v = 1.08 MeV

how much force would be required to produce 88 j of work when pushing a box 1.1meters at an angle of 10 degrees?
ycow [4]

Answer:81.235N

Explanation:

Work=88J

theta=10°

distance=1.1 meters

work=force x cos(theta) x distance

88=force x cos10 x 1.1 cos10=0.9848

88=force x 0.9848 x 1.1

88=force x 1.08328

Divide both sides by 1.08328

88/1.08328=(force x 1.08328)/1.08328

81.235=force

Force=81.235
