Spectroscopy — the use of light from a distant object to work out the object is made of — could be the single-most powerful tool astronomers use, says Professor Fred Watson from the Australian Astronomical Observatory. ... "It lets you see the chemicals being absorbed or emitted by the light source.
Answer:
The manufacturer of a 9V dry-cell flashlight battery says that the battery will deliver 20 mA for 80 continuous hours. During that time the voltage will drop from 9V to 6V. Assume the drop in voltage is linear with time. How much energy does the battery deliver in this 80 h interval?
Explanation:
Time = (distance) / (speed)
Time = (150 x 10⁹ m) / (3 x 10⁸ m/s) =
50 x 10¹ sec =
<em>500 sec</em> = 8 min 20 sec
Answer:
0.1 N
Explanation:
Considering the relationship between force,
spring constant and extension as defined by Hook's law
The force F=xk as from Hooke's law where F is the force of the spring, k is spring constant and x is extension or compression. Substituting 2 N/m for k and 5cm which is equivalent to 0.05 m for extention x then the force will be
F=2*0.05=0.1 N
