A distant galaxy has a redshift z = 5.82 and a recessional velocity vr = 287,000 km/s (about 96% of the speed of light.) Notice

that the equation z=vrcz=vrc does not hold true for recessional velocities approaching the speed of light. What is the distance to the galaxy in light years?

Answer: 4100 Mpc

Explanation:

Since H o = 70 km/s/Mpc

Redshift z = 5.82

Recessional velocity vr = 287,000 km/s

Then, the distance to the galaxy in light years will be:

= Recessional velocity / H o

= 287000 / 70

= 4100 Mpc

Answer:

Vx = V0 cos 60 = V0 ./ 2        horizontal speed

Vy = V0 sin 69 = V0 * .866 = .866 V0   vertical speed

t = 107 / Vx = 214 / V0   time to travel 107 m

h = Vy t - 1/2 * g t*2   time to fall 1.7 m

-1.7 = .866 V0 * 214 / V0 - 4.9 * (214 / V0)^2           substituting

224400 / V0^2 = 187

V0 = (224400 / 187)^1/2 = 2=34.64 m/s

t = 214 / 34.64 = 6.178 stc

Check:    h = Vy t - 1/2 g t^2

-1.7 = .866 * 34.64 * 6.178 - 4.9 * 6.178^2

-1.7  = -1.69

The temperature of a system drops by 30°F during a cooling process. Express this drop in temperature in K, R, and °C.
babunello [35]

Answer:

272.05 K; 489.69 °R; -1.11 °C

Explanation:

Fahrenheit can be converted to degrees Celsius using the following formula:

°C = 5/9 x (°F - 32) = -1.11 °C

The temperature in Kelvin is calculated from the temperature in degrees Celsius as follows:

K = °C + 273.15 = 272.05 K

The temperature on the Rankine scale is calculated from Kelvin as follows:

°R = 1.8K = 1.8(272.05) = 489.69 °R
