Answer: The redshift occurs because the starts are moving away from the earth.

Explanation:

Every object emits wavelength from its body. When it comes to universe there are some visible light emitted by the stars and other objects in galaxy.

If a star is moving towards the sun then it emits a shorter wavelength compared to the source which is at rest. This is blue in color called as blue shift.

But when it comes to stars they move away from the earth and hence emits longer wavelength called as red shift.

As the object it at rest it more towards the blue side and when the objects starts moving it starts moving towards the red side in the visible spectrum.

So, when the starts moves away from the earth it forms a Redshift.

A 50.0-kg projectile is fired at an angle of 30 degrees above thehorizontal with an initial speed of 1.20 x 102 m/s fromthe top
Advocard [28]

Answer:

a)  Em₀ = 42.96 104 J , b)   W_{fr} = -2.49 105 J , c)  vf = 3.75 m / s

Explanation:

The mechanical energy of a body is the sum of its kinetic energy plus the potential energies it has

        Em = K + U

a) Let's look for the initial mechanical energy

      Em₀ = K + U

      Em₀ = ½ m v2 + mg and

      Em₀ = ½ 50.0 (1.20 102) 2 + 50 9.8 142

      Em₀ = 36 104 + 6.96 104

      Em₀ = 42.96 104 J

b) The work of the friction force is equal to the change in the mechanical energy of the body

    W_{fr} = Em₂ -Em₀

     Em₂ = K + U

     Em₂ = ½ m v₂² + m g y₂

     Em₂ = ½ 50 85 2 + 50 9.8 427

     Em₂ = 180.625 + 2.09 105

     Em₂ = 1,806 105 J

     W_{fr} = Em₂ -Em₀

     W_{fr} = 1,806 105 - 4,296 105

     W_{fr} = -2.49 105 J

The negative sign indicates that the work that force and displacement have opposite directions

c) In this case the work of the friction going up is already calculated in part b and the work of the friction going down would be 1.5 that job

We have that the work of friction is equal to the change of mechanical energy

       W_{fr} = ΔEm

       W_{fr} = Emf - Emo

       -1.5 2.49 10⁵ = ½ m vf² - 42.96 10⁴

       ½ m vf² = -1.5 2.49 10⁵ + 4.296 10⁵

       ½ 50.0 vf² = 0.561

       vf = √ 0.561 25

      vf = 3.75 m / s

A bowling ball of mass m=1.7kg is launched from a spring compressed by a distance d=0.31m at an angle of theta=37 measured from
vodomira [7]

Answer:

k = 1 700.7 N/m

v0 = 9.8 m/s^2

Explanation:

Hello!

We can answer this question using conservation of energy.

The potential energy of the spring (PS) will transform to kinetic energy (KE) of the ball, and eventually, when the velocity of the ball is zero, all that energy will be potential gravitational (PG) energy.

When the kinetic energy of the ball is zero, that is, when it has reached its maximum heigh, all the potential energy of the spring will be equal to the potential energy of the gravitational field.

PS = (1/2) k x^2  <em>where x is the compresion or elongation of the spring</em>

PG = mgh

a)

Since energy must be conserved and we are neglecting any energy loss:

PS = PG

Solving for k

k = (2mgh)/(x^2) = ( 2 * 1.7 * 9.81 * 4.9 Nm)/(0.31^2 m^2)

k = 1 700.7 N/m

b)

Since the potential energy of the spring transfors to kinetic energy of the ball we have that:

PS = KE

that is:

(1/2) k x^2 = (1/2) m v0^2

Solving for v0

v0 = x √(k/m) = (0.31 m ) √( 1 700.7 N/m / 1.7kg)

v0 = 9.8 m/s^2
