The significant feature of a Cepheid variable is that there is a relationship between two intrinsic parameters, one of which can

be easily measured, while knowledge of the other parameter is required. These parameters are:

Answer:

Period of brightness variation and luminosity.

Explanation:

The Cepheid variables are used as distance indicators. This requires estimation of periods and (usually) intensity-mean magnitudes in order to establish a period—apparent luminosity relation. It is particularly important for the techniques employed to be as accurate and efficient as possible.

A cylindrical Nickel rod (9 mm diameter, 50 m long) is pulled in tension with a load of 6,283 N. What would the elongation of th
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

0.29 m

Explanation:

9 mm = 0.009 m in diameter

Cross-sectional area A = \pi d^2/4 = \pi * 0.009^2/4 = 6.36\times 10^{-5} m^2

Let the tensile modulus of Nickel E = 170 \times 10^9Pa.

The elongation of the rod can be calculated using the following formula:

\Delta L = \frac{F L}{A E} = \frac{6283*50}{6.36\times 10^{-5} * 170 \times 10^9} = \frac{314150}{1081200} = 0.29 m

Water is boiled in a pan on a stove at sea level. During 10 min of boiling, it is observed that 200 g of water has evaporated. T
diamong [38]

Answer:

Rate of heat is 45.1 kJ/min

Explanation:

Heat required to evaporate the water is given by

Q = mL

here we know that

L = 2.25 \times 10^6 J/kg

now we have

Q = (0.200)(2.25 \times 10^6 J/kg)

Q = 452.1 kJ

now the power is defined as rate of energy

P = \frac{Q}{t}

P = \frac{452.1 kJ}{10}

P = 45.1 kJ/min

Two teams are playing tug of war. Team A pulls to the right with a force of 450 N. Team B pulls to the left with a force of 415
motikmotik

Answer:

35 N to the right.

Explanation:

450 is going to the right so you subtract what is going against it. Which gives you 35. And because 450 is bigger than 415, it'll be going to the right.

Which statement correctly describes the motion of water particles due to the action of waves?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

C True.  they rise and fall in a circular motion

Explanation:

The movement of water waves in the sea is described by a simple harmonic movement where the water droplets, which are the material particles of the movement oscillate up and down and the wave that is the energy of the movement travels perpendicular to it.

With this let's review the claims

A False

B False

C True.

D False

If a ball dropped from a tower reaches the ground after 3.5 seconds, what is the height of the tower?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

60.025m.

Explanation:

S= ut + at^2/2 (2nd equation of motion)

S= 0 + (9.8)(3.5)^2 /2 (free fall case, initial velocity = 0)

S = 4.9 x 12.25

S= 60.025 m.

Disclaimer: did math in my head, so you better double check with a calculator.
