How do spectroscopes help with studying of distance stars?

Physics
1 answer:
Svetradugi [14.3K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

You take the light from a star, planet or galaxy and pass it through a spectroscope, which is a bit like a prism letting you split the light into its component colours. "It lets you see the chemicals being absorbed or emitted by the light source. From this you can work out all sorts of things," says Watson

Andrews [41]

Answer:

newton's first law

Explanation:

this is because newton's first law of motion states that every object will continue in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless a resultant force acts on it.

hope this helps, if you want more elaboration, tell me

Which of the following statements concerning the nuclear force is false? O The nuclear force is attractive and not repulsive. O
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

  • The nuclear force is attractive and not repulsive.
  • The nuclear force is very weak and much smaller in relative magnitude than the electrostatic and gravitational forces.

Explanation:

  • Nuclear force is the strongest existing force in the nature.
  • It has the shortest range.
  • Its main function is to hold the subatomic particles together in nature.
  • The nuclear force is created  by the exchange of pi mesons between the nucleons of an atom, but for this exchange to happen the particles must be close to one another of the order of few femtometer.
  • At about 1 femtometer the nuclear force is very strongly attractive in nature but at distance greater than 2.5 femtometer it fades away.
  • The force becomes repulsive in nature at distance less than 0.7 femtometer.
  • This force holds the likely charged protons together in the nucleus.

An 80.0-kg object is falling and experiences a drag force due to air resistance. The magnitude of this drag force depends on its
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

 Terminal velocity of object = 12.58 m/s

Explanation:

 We know that the terminal velocity is attained when drag force and gravitational force are of the same magnitude.

Gravitational force = mg = 80 * 9.8 = 784 N

Drag force = 12.0v+4.00v^2

Equating both, we have

    784=12.0v+4.00v^2\\ \\ v^2+3v-196=0\\ \\ (v-12.58)(v+15.58)=0

  So v = 12.58 m/s or v = -15.58 m/s ( not possible)

 So terminal velocity of object = 12.58 m/s

Calculate the wavelength in centimeters of radar energy at a frequency of 10 GHz. What is the frequency in gigahertz of radar en
konstantin123 [22]

Explanation:

(a) Frequency of radar energy, f = 10\ GHz =10^{10}\ Hz

The relation between frequency and wavelength is given by :

c=f\lambda

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{f}

\lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{10^{10}}

\lambda=0.03\ m

or

\lambda=3\ cm

(b) If wavelength, \lambda=25\ cm=0.25\ m

c=f\lambda

f=\dfrac{c}{\lambda}

f=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{0.25}

f=1.2\times 10^9\ Hz

or

f = 1.2 GHz

Hence, this is the required solution.
