When observed from Earth, the wavelengths of light emitted by a star are shifted toward the red end of the

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.

How does the amount of precipitation affect the amount of weathering ?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer: Rainfall and temperature can affect the rate in which rocks weather. High temperatures = more rainfall increasing the rate of chemical weathering. Rocks in tropical regions exposed to a lot of rainfall and hot temperatures weather faster than similar rocks in cold, dry climates.

The latitude of the city of Arlington is about 32.7357°. Calculate the following: (a) The angular speed of the Earth. (b) The li
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) The earth rotates by 2π radian in 24 x 60 x 60 s

so angular speed ( w )  = 2π / (24 x 60 x 60)  = 7.268 x  10⁻⁵ rad / s

b ) Linear speed of city of Arlington ( v )  = w r = w R Cosλ where R is radius of the earth and λ is latitude .

v = 7.268 x 10⁻⁵ x  6.371 x 10⁶ cos 32.7357

389.5 m /s

acceleration = w² r = w² R Cos 32.7357

= (7.268 x 10⁻⁵ )² x 6.371 x 10⁶ x cos 32.7357

=283.08 x 10⁻⁴ m/s²

c) velocity ratio =

w r /w R =

R cos 32.73/ R  

= Cos 32.73

= 0.84 .

When an alkali metal is involved in a chemical reaction with a nonmetal, what charge will its atoms most likely form? 1- 2- 2+ 1
seraphim [82]

Answer:

+1 ion

Explanation:

Alkali metals are metals that are found in Group I of the periodic table. Their electronic configuration is such that their valence shell in grounds state is always holding only one electron which they always lose when reacting with non-metals. A loss in an electron makes the atom electrically imbalanced and hence becoming a +1 ion.
