The actual distance of Regulus from Earth is 23.81 parsecs.

Given:

Parallax of Regulus, p = 0.042 arc seconds

Calculation:

When an observer changes their position, an apparent change in the object's position takes place. This change can be calculated using the angle ( or semi-angle) made by the observer and object i.e. the angle made between the two lines of observation from the object to the observer.

Thus from the relation of parallax of a celestial body we get:

S = 1/ tan p ≈ 1 / p

where S is the actual distance between the object and the observer

p is the parallax angle observed

Here for Regulus, we get:

S = 1 / p

= 1 / (0.042) [ 1 parsecs = 1 arcseconds ]

= 23.81 parsecs

We know that,

1 parsecs = 3.26 light-years = 206,000 AU

Converting the actual distance into light years we get:

23.81 parsecs = 23.81 × (3.26 light yrs) = 77.658 light-years

Therefore, the actual distance of Regulus from Earth is 23.81 parsecs which is 77.658 in light years.

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

$q = \dfrac{14}{100}$

Explanation:

given,

86 out of every 100 TV households have at least one remote control

Probability of any material is calculated by.

$Probability = \dfrac{favourable\ outcome}{Total\ outcome}$

$P(at\ least\ one\ remote\ control)=\dfrac{86}{100}$

$P(at\ least\ one\ remote\ control)=0.86$

now, Calculating probability that at least one remote control

q = 1 - 0.86

q = 0.14

$P(doesnot\ have\ at\ least\ one\ remote\ control)=\dfrac{14}{100}$

$q = \dfrac{14}{100}$

In classical physics, consider a 2 kg block hanging on a spring with a spring constant of 50 N/m. Ignore air resistance. The blo

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

v = 0

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by taking into account:

- The equation for the calculation of the period in a spring-masss system

$T = \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$ ( 1 )

- The equation for the velocity of a simple harmonic motion

$x = \frac{2\pi }{T}Asin(\frac{2\pi }{T}t)$ ( 2 )

where m is the mass of the block, k is the spring constant, A is the amplitude (in this case A = 14 cm) and v is the velocity of the block

Hence

$T = \sqrt{\frac{2 kg}{50 N/m}} = 0.2 s$

and by reeplacing it in ( 2 ):

$v = \frac{2\pi }{0.2s}(14cm)sin(\frac{2\pi }{0.2s}(0.9s)) = 140\pi sin(9\pi ) = 0$

In this case for 0.9 s the velocity is zero, that is, the block is in a position with the max displacement from the equilibrium.
