If the star Alpha Centauri were moved to a distance 10 times farther than it is now, its parallax angle would

Physics

Answer:

B. get smaller

Explanation:

The parallax angle of a star measured with respect to the Earth is inversely proportional to the distance of the star from the Earth:

\theta = \frac{1}{d}

where

\theta is the parallax angle, measured in arcsec

d is the distance between the star and the Earth, measured in parsec

Therefore, if the star Alpha Centauri is moved farther from Earth, then d increases, and therefore the parallax angle will get smaller.

You are pulling a child in a wagon. The rope handle is inclined upward at a 60∘ angle. The tension in the handle is 20 N.
dem82 [27]
  • Angle (θ) = 60°
  • Force (F) = 20 N
  • Distance (s) = 200 m
  • Therefore, work done
  • = Fs Cos θ
  • = (20 × 200 × Cos 60°) J
  • = (20 × 200 × 1/2) J
  • = (20 × 100) J
  • = 2000 J

onsider two projectiles that can be shot upward by spring guns. Object A is made of solid aluminum and has a mass of 50 grams. O
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

From Newton's law of motion, we have:

V^2 = U^2 + 2gH

Where V and U are final and initial velocity respectively.

H is the height.

For the object to have a sustain a maximum height it means the final velocity of the object is zero.

By computing the height of the object sustain by A, we have:

0^2 = 2^2 -2×10×H

0= 4 -20H

4 = 20H;

H= 0.2m

For object B we have;

0^2 = 1^2 -2×10×H

0 = 1 -20H

H = 1/20= 0.05m

From computing the height sustain by both objects, we see object B is projected at a shorter height into atmosphere than A.

Hence object B will return to the ground first.

Find the time t2 that it would take the charge of the capacitor to reach 99.99% of its maximum value given that r=12.0ω and c=50
defon

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, .

R = 12 ohms

C = 500μf.

Time t =? When the charge reaches 99.99% of maximum

The charge on a RC circuit is given as

A discharging circuit

Q = Qo•exp(-t/RC)

Where RC is the time constant

τ = RC = 12 × 500 ×10^-6

τ = 0.006 sec

The maximum charge is Qo,

Therefore Q = 99.99% of Qo

Then, Q = 99.99/100 × Qo

Q = 0.9999Qo

So, substituting this into the equation above

Q = Qo•exp(-t/RC)

0.9999Qo = Qo•exp(-t / 0.006)

Divide both side by Qo

0.9999 = exp(-t / 0.006)

Take In of both sodes

In(0.9999) = In(exp(-t / 0.006))

-1 × 10^-4 = -t / 0.006

t = -1 × 10^-4 × - 0.006

t = 6 × 10^-7 second

So it will take 6 × 10^-7 a for charge to reached 99.99% of it's maximum charge
