A person standing waist-deep in a swimming pool appears to have short legs because of light

Two objects, C & D, have the same momentum. Object C has ½ the mass of object D. Find the value of the ratio of velocity C t

Savatey [412]

These are two questions and two answers.

Part 1. Fin the value of the ration of velocity C to velocity D.

Answer: 2

Explanation:

1) Formula: momentum = mass * velocity

2) momentum C = mass C * velocity C

3) momentum D = mass D * velocity D.

4) C and D have the same momentum =>

mass C * velocity C = mass D * velocity D

5) mass C = (1/2) mass D => mass C / mass C = 1/2

6) use in the equation stated in the point 4)

velocit C / velocity D = mass D / mass C

using the equation stated in point 5:

mass D / mass C = 1 / [ mass C / mass D] = 1 / [1/2] = 2

=>

7) velocity C / velocity D = mass D / mass C = 2

Part 2: <span>ratio of kinetic energy C to kinetic energy D.
</span>
Answer: 2

Explanation:

1) formula: kinetic energy KE = (1/2) mass * (velocity)^2

2) KE C = (1/2) mass C * (velocity C)^2

3) KE D = (1/2) mass D * (velocity D)^2

4) KE C / KE D =

(1/2) mass C * (velocity C)^2 mass C (velocity C)^2
--------------------------------------- = --------------- * ---------------------- = (1/2) * (2)^2
(1/2) mass D *( velocity D)^2 mass D v(velocity D)^2

= 4 / 2 = 2

1. 3 main components of a circuit

siniylev [52]

Voltage, resistance and current are the three components that must be present for a circuit to exist. A circuit will not be able to function without these three components. Voltage is the main electrical source that is present in a circuit. :)

Calculate the Schwarzschild radius (in kilometers) for each of the following.1.) A 1 ×108MSun black hole in the center of a quas

Westkost [7]

Answer:

(I). The Schwarzschild radius is $2.94\times10^{8}\ km$

(II). The Schwarzschild radius is 17.7 km.

(III). The Schwarzschild radius is $1.1\times10^{-7}\ km$

(IV). The Schwarzschild radius is $7.4\times10^{-29}\ km$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of black hole $m= 1\times10^{8} M_{sun}$

(I). We need to calculate the Schwarzschild radius

Using formula of radius

$R_{g}=\dfrac{2MG}{c^2}$

Where, G = gravitational constant

M = mass

c = speed of light

Put the value into the formula

$R_{g}=\dfrac{2\times6.67\times10^{-11}\times1\times10^{8}\times1.989\times10^{30}}{(3\times10^{8})^2}$

$R_{g}=2.94\times10^{8}\ km$

(II). Mass of block hole $m= 6 M_{sun}$

We need to calculate the Schwarzschild radius

Using formula of radius

$R_{g}=\dfrac{2MG}{c^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$R_{g}=\dfrac{2\times6.67\times10^{-11}\times6\times1.989\times10^{30}}{(3\times10^{8})^2}$

$R_{g}=17.7\ km$

(III). Mass of block hole m= mass of moon

We need to calculate the Schwarzschild radius

Using formula of radius

$R_{g}=\dfrac{2MG}{c^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$R_{g}=\dfrac{2\times6.67\times10^{-11}\times7.35\times10^{22}}{(3\times10^{8})^2}$

$R_{g}=1.1\times10^{-7}\ km$

(IV). Mass = 50 kg

We need to calculate the Schwarzschild radius

Using formula of radius

$R_{g}=\dfrac{2MG}{c^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$R_{g}=\dfrac{2\times6.67\times10^{-11}\times50}{(3\times10^{8})^2}$

$R_{g}=7.4\times10^{-29}\ km$

Hence, (I). The Schwarzschild radius is $2.94\times10^{8}\ km$

(II). The Schwarzschild radius is 17.7 km.

(III). The Schwarzschild radius is $1.1\times10^{-7}\ km$

(IV). The Schwarzschild radius is $7.4\times10^{-29}\ km$

What do the different colors in a line spectrum represent? why are the spectra for each element unique?

Lana71 [14]

They typically represents different wavelengths of element due to its energy emission in the form of visible light. When an electron of that particular element move from a higher energy level down to a lower energy level, it gives off energy in the form of photon emission. Atom of a certain element has a unique electron arrangement thus it can considered that particular element's spectrum is unique.
